Pakistan vs Srilanka fifth ODI match preview
If we analyze the tournament, it clearly shows Sri Lanka have fought well so far. But the inability to build partnerships made Sri lanka to pay the price.
Pakistan have shown a remarkable performance in the whole series with their trump card Mohammed Hafeez with 407 runs in four games at an average of 203.50, including three hundreds.
As usual Pakistan is playing with their top 6 wicket taking bowlers, Umar Gul, Shahid Afridi, Junaid Khan and Saeed Ajmal. The series might just be a game, but Pakistan could finish off the last game with no mercy. For them, the advantage of momentum to carry with them is crucial, they will be hoping to do the same in the Test series just around the corner.
