After losing the first test and losing a winning test to the rain, visiting Pakistan cricket team plays its third test against hosts Sri Lanka at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium.
Although the third test gets into play Sunday, there are still fears of a coming rain and a disturbed test match. However the recent rain has added greenish tinge on the pitch, which is likely to assist bounce and movement.
While the hosts are in comfortable 1-0 win position, the visitors must win the test. Pakistan has not lost a series since Misbah took command of the unpredictable Pakistan cricket team, even himself too, and it would be demoralising losing to the Islanders this third test.
