Pre-match:
Pakistan will walk into Saturday’s tri-series final in Lahore with a first home title in the format as their target, though Sri Lanka have the means to spoil the party.
The hosts have a poor record in this department, since they lost the three previous tri-series played on their own soil and finished second each time, to Australia in 1994, Sri Lanka in 2004 and New Zealand last year.
This time the signs are better, as Pakistan won their first three matches, two against England and one against Sri Lanka. The run came to an end in the last group game, when Sri Lanka beat them and bowled them out for only 110, which is the kind of collapse the team will want to forget quickly.
Pakistan will hope that two of their key batters find their rhythm in time for the decider. Opener Fakhar Zaman has managed just 31 runs in four matches, while star batter Babar Azam has scored 118 in the same period, and neither has had the impact the side expected.
Sri Lanka come in with plenty of momentum, because last week they stunned England by chasing down 430, which is the second-highest target in ODI history.
Their middle-order batter Pavan Rathnayake has been the standout performer so far, with two centuries against England and 79 runs against Pakistan, so the hosts will have to find a plan for him early.
