Sri Lanka registered a hard-fought 14-run victory over Pakistan in the rain-hit third T20 at Dambulla to level the three-match series 1-1.
In a 12-overs-a-side contest, Sri Lanka posted a competitive 160, led by a blistering 34 off nine balls from skipper Dasun Shanaka. Pakistan threatened through Salman Agha’s explosive 45 off 12, but Wanindu Hasaranga turned the game with a four-wicket haul, also completing 150 T20I wickets.
Sri Lanka choked Pakistan to 146/8, easing their batting concerns ahead of the T20 World Cup.
