Lasith Malinga was happy to bat first after winning the toss. Pakistan are looking for a treble on the tour and went in without any changes. Angelo Mathews was ruled out due to injury for Sri Lanka. Dasun Shanaka and Shehan Jayasuriya came in.

Sri Lanka's president is out at the ground greeting the two teams. The president kick-starts a Kidney donation campaign. Muttiah Muralitharan is the brand ambassador for the same and he makes a donation of Rs 100,000 for the same.

Pakistan have a good chance of wrapping up their tour with another series win. The last game of the series offers them an excellent chance to capitalize on the momentum gained by the win in the first T20I. Sri Lanka have their backs against the wall and Malinga's men need to put up an improved show to square the series.

Pitch Report: 'There's dead grass rolled in. This pitch will be on the slower side in comparison to the first game. The captain who wins the toss will look to bat first. Something around 170-175 will be ideal,' reckons Russel Arnold.

Toss and teams coming up shortly. Stay tuned.






That was some incredible T20 cricket. 6 needed off the final over with just one wicket in hand. Mohammad Irfan walked in with a lot of advice from everyone around him. He sensibly tapped a single first ball and got Imad Wasim on strike. Binura Fernando bowled a slower one but Wasim spotted it early and came down the track to smack it over the fence!

The perfect treble:

They recorded their highest ever run chase in the Test series.

The ODI series victory helped them clinch a spot in the Champions Trophy.

And now this incredible last-wicket win has completed a stunning tour for Pakistan. They go up to No. 3 in T20Is with this win. Sweet finish.
