Pakistan Vs Sri Lanka Highlights, T20I Tri-Series Match 6: SL Win Thriller Against PAK To Book Spot In Finals

Welcome to our live coverage of the 6th T20I, we'll with you throughout the course of the match, give you live scores and updates of the match.

The news is Out! Pakistan have won the toss and have elected to bowl first against Sri Lanka.

Pakistan: Sahibzada Farhan, Saim Ayub, Babar Azam, Salman Agha(c), Usman Khan(w), Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Nawaz, Faheem Ashraf, Mohammad Wasim Jr, Salman Mirza, Abrar Ahmed

Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka, Kamil Mishara, Kusal Mendis(w), Kusal Perera, Janith Liyanage, Dasun Shanaka(c), Pavan Rathnayake, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera, Maheesh Theekshana, Eshan Malinga

That's a big blow for Sri Lanka as the Man of the Match of the last game Pathum Nissanka departs early for just 8 runs. The southpaw Salman Mirza castled Nissanka off a slower ball which took the off-stumps bails with it.

Sri Lankan innings have stabilised after the loss of Pathum Nissanka. Kusal Mendis is hitting Pakistan bowlers to all corners off the ground. Mendis has raced to 31 runs off just 15 balls with 4 boundaries and a six.

Abrar Ahmed gets Kusal Mendis trapped in front of the wicket with a flipper but he did gave SL a strong base from where they can build on and give a steep target to PAK to chase down.

Kamil Mishara brings off his half century. It's a really good knock against an all-round PAK attack. The base is set for SL to explode in the last 7 overs with two set batters on crease and 7 wickets in hand.

SL's innings came to an end and PAK have a target of 185 runs in 20 overs. SL would be a tad disappointed to not get to 200 as PAK gave only 46 runs in the last 5 overs. SL need to restrict PAK under 184 runs to qualify for the finals.

Pak's openers- Saim Ayub and Sahibzada Farhan are on the crease for the chase and Ayub started smashed a beautiful boundary in the first over at mid-wicket to Maheesh Theekshana.

Fakhar Zaman Gone! How has the match within the span of 10 balls. PAK who were going strong all now all of a sudden 3 down. Dushmantha Chameera dismisses Saim Ayub (27) and Babar Azam (0) in a single over and in the next over Eshan Malinga gets Fakhar Zaman (1) out.

After a mini-collapse of the top order, skipper Salman Ali Agha and wicketkeeper Usman Khan have steadied PAK's run-chase but they still have a monstrous task at their hands as PAK still 115 runs to win in just 10 overs.

Usman Khan who was taking on the SL bowlers from the front has departed for 33 of 23 balls but Pakistan still have sufficient batting power left left and the well-set Salman Ali Agha is at the crease. PAK still need 61 runs off 30 balls and the match is rapidly going towards being a thriller.

It's only a single on the last ball when 7 runs were required and Sri Lanka win the all-important encounter to seal the match by 6 runs and with this book a spot in the finals of the Tr-Nation series. Dushmantha Chameera defends 10 run in the last overs with exceptional yorkers.

That's it from our side, we'll be back with another blog, until then, bye bye.
