Cricket : Pak vs Srilanka preview of 1st ODI


After a demoralizing defeat in the test series against Sri Lanka, Pakistan would be looking forward to make their mark in the ODI series. Pakistan has a better looking One day side as ICL players as well as their main trump card Shahid Afridi come into the team. This series would be an interesting spectacle as both sides are well-matched and although Pakistan lost the test series will still be considered slight favourites due to fact that they have a stronger squad.
It will be interesting to see what team Younis Khan goes in with as one of the main middle order batsman might have to sit out to get a good balance of the team and it will also be intriguing to see wether Umar Akmal or Fawad Alam get a chance.On the other hand srilanka has a pretty well balanced team and only expected change will be at the top where Upul Thanranga will replace the injured Dilshan.
Match Day: 30th July 2009

Prediction : In my opinion a close win for Pakistan because of a strong ODI squad
