Pakistan have shown against South Africa recently that they have a really solid group of players who, despite still blowing hot and cold, can perform when it matters and pull them out of tough situations.
Sri Lanka have just had an indifferent series against New Zealand with a mixed bag of results, winning one, losing one and having another game rained out. Both sides play a unique brand of cricket that can be as nerve-wrecking as they are exciting.
It may be added that since 1975, both countries have played 132 ODIs with the edge in Pakistan's favour of 77 wins and 50 losses. One match ended in a tie and four ended without any results.
Both teams are in good form as they levelled the two T20I series 1-1 earlier this month played at Dubai.
