PAK vs SL Key Players

Charith Asalanka

Charith Asalanka has silently become one of the best middle order batters going around. He has the most runs at number five since 2021 and was athe one who broke Pakistan’s hearts at the Asia Cup. Starting well in the current World Cup, Charith Asalanka could make the middle overs interesting given Pakistan’s spin bowling issues.

Bas De Leede has all the makings of a quality all-rounder. He has been in great form for the Netherlands this year and was a key player for them in the qualifiers.

Shaheen Shah Afridi

With Naseem out Shaheen Shah‘s job as top-order destroyer becomes very important. New ball wickets has been his speciality in recent times and with his pace he is likely to play a role even on spinning tracks.

PAK vs SL Match Tips

Pakistan are still in doubts with their form but will be backing themselves to beat Sri Lanka, who will be looking to play out of their skins to make things interesting this World Cup.
