PAK vs SL: Babar Azam-led Pakistan will take on their Asian rivals Dasun Shanaka-led Sri Lanka in the 8th match of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 on 10 October 2023. The match is scheduled to be played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad at 02:00 PM IST. This post reads the PAK vs SL Weather Forecast And Pitch Report Of Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.
Just like Pakistan has never beaten India in any of the ODI World Cup matches in history, Sri Lanka also has never won any encounter with their Asian counterparts. Not only in the World Cups, Pakistan have an upper hand over Sri Lanka in almost every format of Cricket. In a total of 156 ODI matches, Pakistan have won 92 and lost 59.
Grant Bradburn, the head coach of Pakistan, has claimed that the middle order's superior performance has been eclipsed by the fast bowlers' recent form. But it is also true that their top order hasn't kept up to the expectations. While the openers' terrible times have been widely acknowledged, Babar Azam has only scored 61 runs in the past four ODIs.
Despite a convincing 80+ run victory in the first game, the team still has ample issues, particularly at the top of the order. Fakhar Zaman got backing from Bradburn for his efforts, but it's uncertain if he will keep his spot in the starting XI. Rumors were out that Abdullah Shafique would be taking the top charge with Imam.
After having their bowling assault completely annihilated by South Africa in their start to the tournament in Delhi, Sri Lanka will enter the match. Even though the batters produced a good total, it was insufficient to contend with the opposition. Maheesh Theekshana's anticipated comeback would be positive for them, but it would provide a few small selection challenges over pacers and spinners.
Down below is the PAK vs SL Weather Forecast And Pitch Report Of Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium:

The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium?s pitches are known to be batting friendly with plenty of room for pacers to leave their mark. A reliable and good bounce makes hitting easier and also gives pacers more opportunities. The preferred tactic has been chasing, which amplifies the encounter?s thrill.
The bowlers had practically little assistance for fast bowlers. Though there is some turn and grip on the surface, playing spin doesn't seem a big task. Expect a high-scoring encounter between Pakistan and Sri Lanka of 300+ runs.
