Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Streaming 4th ODI

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka 4th ODI Sharjah Live Streaming ( Pak vs Sl Fourth ODI 2011): Pakistan will be looking to wrap up the series in Sharjah after going 2-1 up in the third match of the series at Dubai.

Pakistan put on a strong show early on in the third ODI and were 150/0 at one stage but a batting collapse meant they ended up with only 257. Sri Lanka were solid in reply until Kumara Sangakkara was run out by Shahid Afridi and Pakistan seized the initiative from there.

A 90'esque score of around 250 seems to be winning total in UAE, a feeling that was emphasized by the third ODI, Sharjah used to be the hotbed of ODI's during the 1990's but it has been eight years since two major team played an ODI there.
Team News:
Pakistan may want to give left arm pacer Junaid Khan a look in, so he could replace Sohail Tanvir. The team may drop the rather lethargic Abdul Razzaq too in favor of Shoaib Malik.

The only change Sri Lanka might make is the inclusion of pacer Welegedra in place of Dilhara Fernando who was disappointing in the last game.



Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Streaming 3rd ODI

Live Pakistan vs Sri Lanka 3rd ODI Streaming[ Pak vs SL ] : Sri Lanka's first victory of the tour would have come as a huge morale boost to the Lankan camp, the win also saw the return to form of Mahela Jayawerdene who has struggled throughout the tour.

With the series now level Sri Lanka would come into the match with great confidence that they can put behind hem the defeat in the test series and the humiliation in the first ODI and try to win the ODI series.

Match Finished: Pakistan won by 21 runs.


Pakistan on the other hand will be extremely disappointed at the way they lost the second ODI, they were bowled out in 46.3 overs and were 25 runs short, a target they could easily have achieved had they kept wickets. Umar Akmal hit a marvelous 91 but lost his wicket at a crucial stage. Afridi, Razzaq and Sarfaraz all got starts and were set but couldn't capitalize. Pakistan will now be looking to make amends for the their blunders in the second ODI and take the game to the Lankans.

Team News:
Pakistan are expected to stick with the same team however there are some suggestions that Sohail Tanvir might be included in place of Abdul Razzaq.

Pakistan XI (Probable): 1 Mohammad Hafeez, 2 Imran Farhat, 3 Younis Khan, 4 Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), 5 Umar Akmal, 6 Abdul Razzaq/Sohail Tanvir, 7 Shahid Afridi, 8 Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), 9 Umar Gul, 10 Saeed Ajmal, 11 Aizaz Cheema.

Chanaka Welegedra has been drafted into the squad in place of the injured Suranga Lakmal, who didn't feature in the first two ODI's so it remains to be seen whether Welegedra gets a look in or not.

Sri Lanka XI (Probable): 1 Upul Tharanga, 2 Tillakaratne Dilshan (capt), 3 Kumar Sangakkara (wk), 4 Dinesh Chandimal, 5 Mahela Jayawardene, 6 Angelo Mathews, 7 Jeevan Mendis, 8 Thisara Perera, 9 Lasith Malinga, 10 Seekkuge Prasanna, 11 Dilhara Fernando.
