🏏 ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026: PAK vs SL,Super 8🏏 - Page 4

Sanket Sugaonkar: No matter what Pakistan does first, they need to play aggressively here because they just dont need a win here they need to win by a margin. While bowling they should first play Abrar here and secondly constantly look for wickets, use Tariq upfront rather than keeping him for later.

Sri Lanka have won the toss and have opted to field

SL walo se batting nehi hota aur chase ka karne ka faisala kiya hai Pakistan ko SF bhejne ka pura plan banaya hai

Salman Agha: Massive opportunity. We need to bat well, bowl well and field well and everything will be fine. We need to put up a good total and try and restrict them. Sometimes it can be tough and sometimes it can be easy, it's a mixed feeling knowing what we need to do. We got three changes.

Dasun Shanaka: We gonna bowl first. It is a good pitch and later on there might be dew as well. We need to do the basics right, we need to make it right in all three departments tonight. Win or lose, they always support us and it is a good motivation for us. 2 changes for us.

Jaan boojh ke kar rahe hain, because they know ki Pakistan 13 over me to chase kar nhi sakta hai, so better hai ki unko 200 banaane dein

No offense to SL, but the Pak fans have been saying about Zim or SA, WI, I feel like saying this

Joe: "Hope SL play for pride and redemption and give the fans a little redeeming grace for the ignominy suffered "

Hope so

Sanket: "Pakistan need to bat big here and for that Sahibzada Farhan is going to be key. He is one of the best batters of this world cup and to set up a big total he needs to play another big knock and also would love to see Fakhar batting at 3. Firstly Salman has been really really poor at 3 and Fakhar is best suited to bat at top, so why not move him up, give him that chance to go and express himself. Pakistan should bat a bit freely here, go for that 180-200."
