SL vs AFG, 2nd ODI: Pitch Report
This is a good batting wicket and bowlers will have to work very hard to dismiss batters, particularly when the ball loses its initial shine. A par score is likely to be 360+ again. Afghanistan won the toss and chose to field first on Friday before losing the game. But with humidity levels set to rise across the game, neither side will want to field late in the day so we predict that both skippers will choose to field first ahead of this match.
