My prediction; Pakistan wins 2-1. The lankan batting in current form is like having 6 Virender Sehwag of 2006... Simply clueless. Their top order is fragile and they're too reliant on Sangakkara to prop them up. Pakistan could feel the loss of Misbah, but as they showed against us in the last Asia cup, their batting can still be formidable.

^^ Didn't geoff lawson bravely prolaim before the start of the india - pak math at the Kitply up that Pakistan aimed to win over India by a defiit of 150 runs? Refresh my memory ... . Pak lost the math by 140 odd runs You are a brave man to make preditions like Pak win match / series when you've really got nothing to show cricket wise for the last yr or so

Yes, Pak lost by 140 runs, but in the same series, they also beat us easily, chasing more than 300. With Butt, Misbah, Younis and Akmal, they have a formidable batting unit. It will be foolish to write them off. Everything will depend on the Lankan top-order. If it keeps failing like it has done in the recent past, Murali and Mendis notwithstanding, it will lose.

Pakistan has the players.....but most of them would feel rusty with no match practice at all. Besides psychologically they would be under a lot of pressure. I think Lanka might just sweep this one. My money is on Lanka.

It may be a long time since Pakistan got to watch international cricket' date=' but hardly any fans have turned up as of now. -cricinfo.[/quote'] I guess they probably know what the outcome is, so why bother?

Shoaib Akhtar to Dilshan, 1 run, dropped, that was pitched up, outside off, Dilshan goes for a booming drive, gets the outside edge, a regulation catch for Younis Khan at slip but he puts it down...
