LIVE – Pakistan v Sri Lanka T20: The Lankans posts 141 runs in 19.3 overs- Match Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/United-Arab-Emirates-c3033 (UAE) on Friday, November 25, 2011.
Sri Lanka chose to bat first after they won the toss and were looking in an intimidating form as opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/TM-Dilshan-c2691 took the field. The two openers knew that they had to get their side off to a flying start in order to avenge their
loss in the five-match one-day series by 4-1.
However, the partnership failed to prosper as Tharanga was dismissed by Pakistan pacer http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Aizaz-Cheema-c961 in the fourth over after scoring only 12 runs. At the time of this wicket, the Sri Lankans had amassed only 30 runs on the board.
With Tharanga back in the pavilion it was time for inform batsman http://www.senore.com/Cricket/LD-Chandimal-c1831 to take the field and craft a potent partnership with his skipper.
However, their plans were shattered by Pakistan as spinner http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Saeed-Ajmal-c87859 Struck gold in the sixth over when he dismissed the prized wicket of Dilshan.
The batsman walked back to the pavilion after scoring a knock of 28 runs with four boundaries to his name. Nonetheless, at the time of his demise the Lankans had managed to post only 61 runs on the board.
This wicket brought former skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohammad-Hafeez-c76898.
The wicket was extremely important for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 as they knew that Sangakkara was the danger man and had the ability to take the game away from them.
With Sangakkara back in the pavilion, panic was running wild in the Sri Lankan camp as they were beginning to lose their hold on the match and were now at the mercy of Pakistan bowlers who were bowling magnificently.
From the Lankans, Chandimal was the highest scorer from his side with 56 runs to his name while the rest of the batting line-up was incinerated by the astounding bowling from Pakistan which restricted the Lankans from scoring a total around 200.
