Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Shakeel sweeps the last ball of that over behind deep square leg while Rizwan is hobbling and hurting at the other end.

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: SIX! AND CRAMPS FOR RIZWAN!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: He comes down the track to Dhananjaya for the third ball of the 37th and smashes it back over the bowler’s head. The ball is only halfway through to the boundary when his backfoot is thrown forward and he falls on the ground. Rizwan tries to get up and walk but that right foot is dead straight. He goes down again and some Sri Lankan players come to his aid before the physios come out. Rizwan has moved to 89 off 81, Pakistan are 246/3 in 36.3 overs, Pakistan need 99 in 81 balls.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 09:25 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan 239/3 in 36 overs
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Need 106 to win off 84. Rizwan seems good to go after getting some treatment. Pretty sure some pain killers are doing the job at the moment.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 09:22 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Rizwan is down!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: He seemed to have hurt his back as he tried to reach a wide and high delivery fifth ball of that over. Rizwan was down holding his back for a while before getting up and facing the next ball. Then he takes a single off the next ball and lies down flat on his back. Him having to go off at this point would be nightmarish for Pakistan, not to mention how much of a blow it will be if this goes on to affect his participation in any of the rest of the games.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 09:20 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FOUR! Rizwan soldiers on

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Something special was needed to end this special innings and that is exactly what has happened here. Short outside off, Shafique hits it towards backward point. Dushan Hemantha the substitute fielder just darts to his right and takes the catch while still in flight. The crowd gives Shafique a standing ovation as he walks off disappointed.
Shafique c sub (Hemantha) b Pathirana 113 (103), Pakistan 213/3 in 33.1 overs
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:59 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FOUR! WHAT A HIT THAT IS!
Shafique comes down the track to the last ball of that ball and creams that through extra cover. That reached the boundary in less than a second. Pakistan are 207/2 in 32 overs, need 138 to win from 118. That gap between their run rate and the asking rate is reducing with each passing over now. This partnership has swollen to 170 off 149.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:56 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: SIX! AND NO BALL!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Short from Madushanka and Rizwan pulls it over deep square leg. Moreover, Madushanka has oversteps so that is a no ball as well. Pakistan as dominant as they can be at the moment.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:53 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FOUR! CENTURY FOR SHAFIQUE!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: The first ball goes for a dot and then Shafique pulls the second to the midwicket boundary. Century on World Cup debut for Shafique. The crowd is all noise for him, Rizwan raises his hands, he seems to be more relieved now than he would be if that was his own century. Shafique has got there in just 97 balls.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:52 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Shafique on 99

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan cross 150, Shafique on 79 off 82 and Rizwan on 41 off 53. Pakistan slowly but steadily increasing their scoring rate and these are worrying signs for Sri Lanka. Still a long way from Pakistan getting anywhere close to the target but they are on the right track.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:31 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FOUR!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Charith Asalanka comes in to bowl the 27th over and his fourth delivery is smoked down the ground by Shafique for his fifth boundary of the innings.

Theekshana and Madushanka have bowled five overs thus far while Wellalage has bowled six. Pathirana and Shanaka have bowled four each and Dhananjaya de Silva bowled two rather expensive overs. Madushanka remains the only wicket taker thus far for Sri Lanka.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:16 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Partnership reaches 88
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan are 125/2 in 23 overs. Shafique on 62 off 68 and Rizwan on 32 off 43. The run rate has crept up above 5 and so, it is all going well at the moment for Pakistan.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:08 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: SIX! Nothing lucky about this one
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: The first six may have been largely thanks to a misfield from Sri Lanka but this one is emphatic. Dhananjaya de Silva bowling the 21st and Shafique steps out to the second ball and tonks it over midwicket. That is the longer side of the ground and he has managed to put the ball in the stands there.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:03 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Fifty for Shafique!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: It has come in 58 deliveries. Just the kind of innings that Pakistan needed at this stage. The partnership between him and Rizwan is now approaching 70 and so, Sri Lanka know they need a wicket here ASAP.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 08:02 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FOUR!

Tue, 10 Oct 2023 07:37 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: SIX! Ludicrous misfield!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: First six of the innings and it has come thanks to some terrible communication between the two fielders at the boundary. That should have been the end of Abdullah Shafique’s day. Pathirana digs in the fourth ball of the 14th over short, Shafique tries to hook but it takes a top edge. Fine leg and square leg fielders converge at the boundary and both players pull out, allowing the ball to land squarely on the boundary pad. Pakistan 67/2 in 13.4 overs
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 07:31 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan 55/2 in 12 overs
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Rizwan six off 10, Shafique on 25 off 35. The run rate is 4.58 while the required rate is at 7.63. Not comfortable at all at the moment for Pakistan but they would know better than to let themselves succumb to the scorecard pressure.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 07:19 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan 48/2 in 10 overs
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Sri Lanka lost a review with the last ball of the 10th over. Bouncer from Madushanka to Abdullah, it flew off the batter’s helmet to the fielder at cover. Sri Lanka appeal, the umpire shakes his head and Shanaka reviews. There was no bat on it as it turns out and so Sri Lanka have just one more review left.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 07:08 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Pakistan 37/2 in 8 overs
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Rizwan is the new man in and he is yet to get off the mark after facing four deliveries. Shafique has scored 14 in 17.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 07:02 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: OUT! BABAR FALLS!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Strangled down the leg side! Pakistan’s captain falls for a cheap score once again in this World Cup.
Babar c Samarawickrama b Madushanka 10 (15), Pakistan 37/2 in 7.2 overs
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 07:01 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FOUR!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FOUR! Some aggression from Shafique. Short from Shanaka for the fifth ball of the seventh, Shafique comes down the track and pulls the Sri Lanka captain over midwicket.
Pakistan 36/1 in 6.5 overs
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 06:54 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Six overs done, Pakistan 27/1
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Babar is on 9 off 11 balls, Abdullah Shafique on 6 off 13. The current rate is well below the required rate but Pakistan have the batters to make up for that. For now, their priority would be survival and getting runs the easiest way possible.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 06:43 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: GONE! Imam falls!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Early breakthrough for Sri Lanka! Quite a brilliant catch at fine leg and Dilshan Madushanka gets an early wicket for Sri Lanka. Imam seems surprised by a short one that comes too quickly at him. He goes for a pull shot, doesn’t quite the connection he wanted, Kusal Perera runs in and judges his dive forward to perfection.
Imam c Perera b Madushanka 12 (12), Pakistan 16/1 in 3.3 overs
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 06:35 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: PAK innings underway
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Abdullah Shafique and Imam-Ul-Haq have walked out in the middle as Pakistan eye their highest successful ODI chase of all time. Sri Lanka straightaway start with spin as Maheesh Theekshana begins the proceedings, and almost had a wicket had a direct hit from Samarawickrama could have landed Shafique in trouble.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:59 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: SL finish on 344/9
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Five dot balls and two wickets in the last over means that Sri Lanka will not get to 350. They finish six short of it – on 344/9 – and although Pakistan did well to limit SL to that total, it will require a herculean chase. Sri Lanka will be the happier of the two teams but Pakistan won’t be too dejected themselves. Yes, they gave away almost 350 but it could have been a lot worse had it not been for those last few wickets in quick succession.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:54 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: SMACKED FOR FOUR!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Dunith Wellalage with a crucial boundary that gets Sri Lanka to 343. Just 7 needed now off the last over to breach that 350-run mark. Meanwhile, due to a bad over rate, Pakistan have been dealt a penalty which means only 4 of their fielders will be allowed outside the circle. Haris Rauf to bowl the final over.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:49 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Fourth wicket for Hasan Ali
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: OUT! Big wicket for Pakistan, Hasan Ali picks his 4th as SL lose Samarawickrama for 108. Tries the reverse scoop but gets an edge into the hands of Mohammad Rizwan. Interesting, hang on! 350 starting to look slightly tougher now with just three more wickets left.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:45 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Shaheen’s first wicket
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: OUT! A late wicket as Dasun Shanaka falls but Pakistan wouldn’t mind. Sri Lanka 324/6 in 46.3 overs. The Sri Lanka captain never got his timing right, and in a bid to up the ante, perishes as Babar Azam takes a catch to give Shaheen Afridi his first wicket of the game. Meanwhile, Samarawickrama, whose standout feature today has been picking the right gaps, has done it again.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:37 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: ODI Century No. 1!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: With a tap on the leg-side, Sadeera Samarawickrama completes a century he will remember for a long time to come. His first in ODIs and it comes in a World Cup. Doesn’t get sweeter than that. Dasun Shanaka struggling a tad at 10 off 16. Sri Lanka 321/5 with 4 overs left. Surely, SL must be backing themselves to get around 360-370.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:29 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: SIX! There it comes
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: What a shot! Inside out over extra cover for six as Sri Lanka cross 300 and Samarawickrama enters the 90s. A shot of the match contender that stroke. He finishes the over with a speedy two. It initially appeared as though Rizwan had put down a catch, but the snicko showed no spike.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:25 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Haris Rauf bowls the kind of over PAK wanted from him earlier
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Just 2 singles off that over as SL reach 298/5 with 7 overs remaining. They’ve been tied down in the last few overs but now is the time for Samarawickrama to take charge. Sri Lanka should eye a minimum of 350 from here, and with Dasun Shanaka, one of the cleanest lower-order strikers, out there partnering Samarawickrama, one of them surely has to explode.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:19 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: WICKET!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: WICKET! Nawaz gets De Silva for 25. Goes after Mohammad Nawaz but the timing is nowhere close to perfect. Shaheen takes the catch. Pakistan need that wicket desperately and although it wasn’t Samarawickrama’s dismissal, de Silva is an equally threatening batter. Sri Lanka 294/5 in 41.1 overs
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:13 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Samarawickrama nearing century!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: He is 80 off 56 balls and is just 20 runs short of what would be a spectacular century. Continues to unleash the tap and sweep approach on Pakistan as Sri Lanka are back scoring in excess of 7 runs an over. Pakistan seems unhurried in their approach. It’s as though they are patiently waiting for the Sri Lankan batsmen to make a mistake or exude confidence in their ability to chase down any target Sri Lanka sets.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 05:05 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: PAK need Samarawickrama’s wicket
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Slowly and steadily, Sadeera Samarawickrama is setting himself up for a huge finish and entering the zone Kusal Mendis did. Sri Lanka’s run rate has dropped below 7 now for the first time in almost 25 overs but the bigger picture here is the blossoming of another partnership. Samarawickrama and Dhananjaya de Silva have added 44 off 53 balls with de Silva moving to 22 off 29 balls as well. Huge total loading as Sri Lanka reach 273/4 in 39 overs.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 04:51 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: FIFTY for Samarawickrama
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Sadeera Samarawickrama is key for Sri Lanka now that Kusal Mendis is out. He reaches a splendid half-century but displays no intention of squandering this chance. Sadeera expertly guides Shadab Khan’s delivery through the covers and then identifies the unguarded region on the leg side, skillfully chipping down the track for another boundary in the same over. Sri Lanka 255/4 in 36 overs.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 04:42 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: More misfield!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: A thick outside edge sends the ball racing past the third man fielder, and it rolls away for a boundary. This sums up Pakistan’s day. Haris Rauf, covering his face with his right hand, lets out an exasperated scream, a silent ‘What?’ echoing the team’s frustration. Shadab wears a bewildered expression as well. Sri Lanka 239/4 after 33 overs.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 04:36 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Two overs without a boundary!
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: Hmmm! That sure has been a rare event in the day as Pakistan just slipping in a few quiet and quick overs through Shadab and Hasan Ali. Boundaries have dried up since Kusal Mendis’ wicket, the last being Sadeera Samarawickrama’s two fours off the 30th over bowled by Iftikhar. He is on 48 off 40 balls, approaching a well-deserved half-century.
Tue, 10 Oct 2023 04:31 PM
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: WICKET! One brings Two
Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Live Score, Cricket World Cup 2023: WICKET! Two in two, Hasan Ali the man again as he dismisses Charith Asalanka for 1. Slightly outside off and a thick edge to Rizwan. Sri Lanka 229/4 in 30.1 overs. Right then! Pakistan have found an opening. Can they break the door down now? Sri Lanka still on top but with 20 overs to go, this can change anytime now if another wicekt falls here.
