About this episode
Join the Murali End as they review all the action from the 1st ODI between Pakistan and Sri Lanka as part of Sri Lanka's tour of Pakistan.
Pakistan edged out Sri Lanka by 6 runs in a thrilling first ODI in Rawalpindi to take a 1-0 lead in the series. Salman Agha’s brilliant century (100*) and Hussain Talat’s maiden fifty (56) powered Pakistan to 299/5 after a shaky start. Despite Wanindu Hasaranga’s superb all-round show, 3/54 and a fighting 59 off 52 balls, Sri Lanka fell just short in their chase of 300. Haris Rauf’s fiery spell (4/61) turned the game after Sri Lanka’s strong 85-run opening stand. Late heroics from Wanindu and Theekshana weren’t enough as Pakistan held their nerve to seal a hard-fought win.
