Match Details
PAKISTAN VS SRI LANKA
Time – Start at 10:00 AM (IST)
Date- 20 July 2022, Wednesday
Venue – Galle International Stadium, Galle
Series – Pakistan tour of Sri Lanka, 2022
Pitch Report and Details
Galle hosted both games of the series between Sri Lanka and Australia, which throughout the game favoured spinners. The first two days of play on this surface appear to have something to offer the batters. Additionally, there is a chance that the ball will turn square starting on the third day. The hitters will find it difficult going forward to handle spin.
Pitch Behaviour
Overall: Batting favour
Preview
Pakistan will face the Sri Lanka in the 1st Test, Day 5 match, Which will be held at Galle International Stadium.
Pakistan is attempting a whole new spin combination because Sajid Khan was left off the squad and Nauman Ali was left off the starting XI for the first Test.
While Yasir Shah has won Test matches on his own before in Sri Lanka, he might use some strong backing from the two allrounders in the XI given they both lack experience at this level. If Mohammad Nawaz and the rookie Agha Salman can provide him with that, Pakistan may have the equipment necessary to manage Sri Lanka's hitters.
Niroshan Dickwella is thought to be Sri Lanka's finest wicketkeeper, but there hasn't been much evidence to support this in recent matches.
In the series against Australia, he missed four stumpings, two of which were very simple [in his defence, the opposing wicketkeeper Alex Carey did not have a fantastic series with the gloves either]. Dickwella's position is a little questioned given these factors, as well as his frequently promising but insignificant bat contributions.
