Pakistan and Sri Lanka are beginning preparations for the T20 World Cup 2026. The two Asian giants will face off Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, with the aim of testing themselves before the ICC event.
In the pre-match press conference, Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha had stated that the series would help those players who haven’t played much in Sri Lanka get acclimatised to the conditions. Considering Pakistan will play all T20 World Cup matches in Colombo, this would help them immensely.
“This series will help the players a lot for the World Cup, especially those who haven’t played that much cricket in Sri Lanka,” he added.
