Given the conditions around which Sri Lanka facilitated Australia, very few anticipated that they should put up a test. On paper, Australia were effectively the more grounded outfit yet the home side showed a lot of soul to overturn them in the ODIs and afterward figured out how to draw the Tests too.
Sri Lanka’s inexperienced bowling attack faced the strong Australian batting line-up. Their veterans moved forward with the bat too. The indications of restoration are very clear yet the following test will most likely exhibit where they really stand.
Pakistan is generally a very settled unit. They are familiar with these conditions too so as far as the spin challenge, the Pakistan batsmen will actually want to match their partners, in the event that they do not charge better. In Shaheen Shah Afridi, they likewise have somebody who can get things going even on surfaces that aren’t friendly enough.
Any semblance of Hasan Ali and Naseem Shah aren’t easy targets by the same token. So the Sri Lankan batsmen will have their task cut out. The onus will be indeed on Dinesh Chandimal and Angelo Mathews to move forward in the event that Sri Lanka are to offer a test.
One area where Sri Lanka could feel certain about terms of the faculty is the twist division. Prabath Jayasuriya may be only one Test old. In any case, he was totally stunned in that game by bowling his side to triumph with a 12-wicket pull.

Maheesh Theekshana looked great in his debut too and Ramesh Mendis made a crucial commitment in the series-evening out win. The twist triplet will be radiating with certainty having been conveyed against a few major names, yet the Babar Azam and Co. will doubtlessly represent a much greater test.
For Pakistan, Yasir Shah is clearly a much greater name than the Sri Lankan threesome yet he is getting back in the game at 36 years old. He had a lot of progress on these shores back in 2015 however reproducing those accomplishments while making a rebound won’t be simple by any stretch. Probably, the fight that concludes the series will be between the Sri Lankan hitters and the Pakistani pacemen.
