Pakistan Opts to Bowl Against Sri Lanka in T20I Tri-Series Final at Rawalpindi

Pakistan has won the toss and decided to bowl first against Sri Lanka in the T20I Tri Series final at Rawalpindi. The home side bolstered its attack by adding Shaheen Shah Afridi in the squad. He has returned to the Playing XI after recovering from a minor foot injury.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka has made no changes to its Playing XI. They have entered the field with the same squad that defeated Pakistan in the previous encounter here in Rawalpindi. The visitors are therefore confident of repeating a similar performance in the final to lift the T20I Tri-Series trophy.

This is a high-pressure match for both teams, so fans can expect plenty of action right from the start. Sri Lanka will rely heavily on its batting to gain an edge, just as they did in their previous contest against Pakistan.

As far as Pakistan is concerned, they will look to pick up early wickets in the Powerplay to halt the charge of the Sri Lankan batters. All eyes will be on Shaheen Shah Afridi, who is returning from injury after spending most of the tournament in the dugout. His performance in the final could give Pakistan a significant advantage over Sri Lanka, which is currently looking determined to post a big total on the board.
