Afghanistan suffered a collapse of epic proportions in the second ODI resulting in a hammering against Sri Lanka on Sunday, 11 February. From 143/2, Afghanistan were bowled out for just 153 runs to hand Sri Lanka an unassailable lead in the series.
It is not a match decider. But we can see a heartful effort from Shahidi’s team.

The Pallekele Stadium pitch is known for its batting-friendly nature, favouring the batters who often dominate the game. The surface doesn’t offer much assistance to pacers, making it easier for batsmen to find their rhythm and score big runs once they settle in. As the matches move forward, the pitch at Pallekele International Stadium gradually dries up and becomes more favourable for spinners. Considering the impressive spin options available to both teams, it wouldn’t be surprising to witness game-changing performances from the talented spin department.
Last result at the venue (Feb 11, 2024)
Sri Lanka – 308/6 (Pacers – 4w, Spinners – 2w)
Afghanistan – 153/10 (33.5 overs) (Pacers – 5w, Spinners – 4w)
