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.

Batting favour
Preview
Pakistan will face the Sri Lanka in the 2nd Test, Day 1 match, Which will be held at Galle International Stadium.
Spinners took 26 out of the previous game's 36 wickets, demonstrating the importance of spin in recent games on this Galle field. Therefore, it appeared that Pakistan may have blown the opportunity by starting three seamers (Shaheen Afridi, Hasan Ali, and Naseem Shah) in such conditions while Sri Lanka only used one pacer, Kasun Rajitha.
They may be motivated to change their focus to improving their spin web on Sri Lankan soil after Mohammad Nawaz's five-wicket haul in the third innings.
Pakistan, who are considered the favourites to win this series, will arrive with all guns blazing.
