On being asked about the importance of improvement in the rankings, the 37-year-old said, “Of course that is a team goal. We've been playing for the last 18 months and through that we want to improve our ranking. This is a good opportunity for us and we'll
avail that.”
The hosts have a very good chance of winning the final match, as the opposition is struggling with some injury problems.
Star Sri Lankan batsman http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KC-Sangakkara-c1779 are currently the most dependable players in the team, as skipper Tillakaratne
Dilshan is having a bad time both with the bat and his captaincy.
On the other hand, Pakistan were also worried about the fitness of star all-rounder http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shahid-Afridi-c2482, who suffered an injury while fielding in the fourth ODI of the series at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
However, interim coach http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohsin-Hasan-Khan-c77595 gave good news to Afridi’s fans saying, “He took a nasty knock but he is a strong boy and he has recovered. There is no serious problem — there was slight pain early on but he is fine now and ready to go. We will
enter to win and will provide chances to whoever has not played.”
The veteran cricketer has played a very strong part in his side’s success in the ongoing series. He will look to do the same in the final ODI and claim the man of the series award.
