Vikum Sanjaya to Faheem Ashraf. Yorker, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Munaweera.
A couple of superb final overs from Pakistan and they reach the average score at the Gaddafi Stadium, 180. It was a rather subdued innings until the later stages when Shoaib Malik added some much needed energy with a 23 ball fifty and Fahim Ashraf blasted two sixes from two balls at the end. Sri Lanka were doing well until that point but they are still in with a chance on this high scoring ground with the pitch also looking nice to bat on, but they will need to get off to a good start to quieten the boisterous crowd.
FREE HIT. SIX! Vikum Sanjaya to Faheem Ashraf. Full toss, middle stump on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. Back to back big ones from Fahim. Who needs a sighter?
SIX! Vikum Sanjaya to Faheem Ashraf. Full toss, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control to deep extra cover for 1 run. Fahim smokes his first ball for six. What a way to open your account, and he is going to have a free-hit next ball.
OUT! Caught. Vikum Sanjaya to Shoaib Malik. Full toss, off stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air under control to deep mid wicket, by de Silva. Malik falls next ball after not getting the elevation required to go back to back. Easy catch for the fielder in the deep.

Mohammad Amir to Vikum Sanjaya. Length ball, down leg side backing away working, to deep mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Ashraf.
Pakistan wrap up the T20 series 3-0. It was a convincing win and other than the half century from Dasun Shanaka Sri Lanka didn't put up much fight. They were three wickets down in the powerplay and from then on it was an uphill struggle. The seamers did all the damage for Pakistan with Mohammad Amir returning career best figures of 4-13 and Fahim Ashraf followed up his three wicket haul in the previous match with a couple more.
That's it from this tour which started off brightly for Sri Lanka but ended up as a disappointment. They have plenty of work to do in the limited overs format.

SIX! Hasan Ali to Seekkuge Prasanna. Short, outside off stump on the front foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. Sweet sound off the bat as Prasanna connected with that ball. His second six of the over which means Sri Lanka require 39 from the last one.
Hasan Ali to Sachith Pathirana. Slower ball back of a length, down leg side backing away pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Khan.

OUT! Caught. Hasan Ali to Thisara Perera. Slower length ball, to leg on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on, by Khan.

OUT! Bowled. Mohammad Amir to Chaturanga de Silva. Yorker, to leg backing away driving, missed. On the money. Chaturanga shows too much of his stumps to Amir which was like showing a red rag to a bull. The Pakistan quick fires in a perfect yorker and cleans up the batsman.
