Following a 29-run win in the first Twenty20 International (T20I), visitors Pakistan take on the reigning World T20 Champions Sri Lanka in the second and final match of the series at the R Premdasa Stadium in Colombo on Saturday. Pakistan, who outplayed Sri Lanka in almost every department in the last game, were helped by three crucial knocks from Ahmed Shehzad, Shoaib Malik, and Umar Akmal. Sohail Tanvir then took three wickets to knock Sri Lanka over. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, have already had a dreadful series, having lost the Tests and One-Day Internationals (ODIs). They were outplayed in almost every department in the last game; the bowling failed to click as Pakistan batsmen were able to score run with an ease. Thisara Perea took a couple of wickets, while debutant Binura Fernando, Angelo Mathews, and skipper Lasith Malinga claimed a wicket each. They never looked particularly threatening though, and were unable to strike at regular intervals. LIVE UPDATES: Pakistan vs Sri Lanka 2015, 2nd T20I at Colombo
