After beating Afghanistan (AFG) in the one-off Test, Sri Lanka (SL) white-washed the visitors in the ODI series and are in pole position to repeat the same in the three-match T20I series. In the first match of the series, the Wanindu Hasaranga-led side won by four runs, while registering a massive 72-run win in the second T20I. They have already clinched the series but would aim to end it on a high note.
Sadeera Samarawickrama and Angelo Mathews are in remarkable form with the bat, while Hasaranga, Matheesha Pathirana and Binura Fernando have done a commendable job with the ball. Afghanistan batters failed to make a mark in the last match as there’s a lot of room for improvement at the moment. They seem to be missing Rashid Khan in the playing XI, who has been a consistent match-winner for them in the recent past.
