Sri Lanka vs Pakistan- 4th ODI - Expected Rain Halts Play - Live Cricket Score Update-match Update
In the 4th One Day International between http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755, the visitors have broken the momentum of the home team as the Lankan Batsmen were restricted to a scoring rate of 2.44 runs per over in the last five overs, (17-22 overs).
Sri Lanka has posted 91 runs for the loss of 3 wickets from 25.4 overs as rain has halted proceedings yet again. It is a light shower and play is expected to begin soon. The visitors have managed to put the brakes on the run-rate, making it hard for the
Lankan batsmen to score. While http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shahid-Ali-Khan-c89356 Afridi has also been bowling well without getting just rewards but will be aiming
to do a similar job when play resumes.
The well known spin attack of the the Men in Green has again managed to stand out, the pick being Hafeez, dismissing the dangerous http://www.senore.com/Cricket/TM-Dilshan-c2691, who got off to a very cautious start, standing for 46 deliveries at the crease before an attempted slog
sweep came to his demise - trapping him in front of the stumps.
The right-arm off-spinner then stuck for the second time. After picking up Dilshan, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/LD-Chandimal-c1831 was bowled after he tried to cut a ball which skidded on. The right-handed batsman scored 18 runs of 30 balls, which included two fours. The T20 captain
of Pakistan up till now has conceded just 13 runs at an impressive economy rate of 2.33.
With the pitch aiding spinners, it remains to be seen what impact does Ajmal has in the remaining game. The pitch is currently occupied by two of Lankan’s most experienced players, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DPMD-Jayawardene-c1397, both of whom have the ability to
play slow bowlers well.
The Men in Green have also tried the medium-pace of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Younis-Khan-c98325 however, that move remained ineffective with the veteran conceding 11 from 2 overs.
The match is evenly poised however, with more rain expected; both teams will be keen to do their homework as Duck-worth Lewis method could play an important part in deciding the game. The series is tied 1-1.
