Did not expect this result, but am not surprised since Sri lanka were performing pretty well in the ODI series and they were giving them trouble. Pradeep, Udana and Hasaranga did well to decimate the Pakistan lineup quite easily.
It was a surprising result but they lost the match when the team was selected thinking that they can experiment against Srilanka.

Can someone clarify why Haris Sohail is not a part of this match? If Pakistan continues playing with this current T-20 lineup, I think Sri Lanka might win this T-20 series since their players are all in form at the moment.
Looks like the cricket board is experimenting players in wake of the upcoming T20 world cup and they messed things completely by dropping Fakhar Zaman, Haris Sohail and Usman Shinwari and they had the result what they deserved. Other than that i do not see any reason for dropping these players from the team.

From the start of the series (I am talking about the ODIs), it looked as if the Pakistanis were underestimating Sri Lanka. It was clear from the first completed match (2nd ODI). Back then I had warned that the Pakistan team was getting complacent. They won the 3rd ODI just because of sheer luck. But they never cared to change and in the end lost the next match.

I wouldn't say that Pak won the 3rd ODI because of sheer luck. They were fluent with the bat if you had watched the match. I am sure that even those who made a bet on SL on yesterday's match wouldn't have expected SL to win the match.. Most of them would have made a bet only because of the high odds.

Looking at the current scenario, SL are destined to win this match unless we see some strong comeback from Pak which is highly unlikely. Who would have thought that SL B team would bring down top T20 team. Once again this proves that bets on T20 matches is purely luck based.

Edit: 7 wickets gone. Pak are done for the match. Pak all out for 101. SL leads 1-0. Congrats to anyone who managed to bet on SL  Cool

Even before the start of the T20 series, I had posted that the odds for Sri Lanka looks very attractive. I had also posted that they are going to win at least one of the three matches (and with odds ranging from 5.50 to 6.00, those who bet in their favor will end up in good profit even if they lose two of their matches out of a total of three).

How sad it would be for the UAE people if the next PSL is played fully in Pakistan  Smiley
Pakistan cricket board is trying their best to bring international cricket back to Pakistan but they are yet to conduct the entire PSL in Pakistan which is really strange, if they really want to bring cricket back, make sure they play the entire tournament of PSL back in Pakistan and prove that they could conduct these matches with upmost safety.

Pak all out for 101 is something you don't often see against teams like Sri Lanka the pace battery was awesome in swinging the ball both way around.
Srilanka bowled really well and Pakistan was not able to control the match in any situation and fell under the pressure as it is not easy to chase a huge total under lights when the ball is swinging.

Well lot's of eyes on Pakistan after this series. If the remaining series is completed without any problem I think this might prove to be sort of game changing for them and they could host a few more series with some smaller nations to ensure security inviting some big tour and stadium of the UAE might once again go barren  Grin

After all it is our tournament.  They may introduce UAE League, if they want.

It might be your bad luck today but Sri Lanka were much better of a team today. Pak all out for 101 is something you don't often see against teams like Sri Lanka the pace battery was awesome in swinging the ball both way around.
We have the army taking care of the security for today's match.

This is not luck, Srilanka dominated the entire match and it was not even a close match as Srilanka posted a good total in the scoreboard and then folded the Pakistan batsman by picking up wickets at regular intervals and dominating them from the start and it is no means a lucky win and T20 matches are really unpredictable. Pakistan is a really unpredictable team, one day they perform really well and the other day they come up with sub par performances and even in this match Srilanka won by 64 runs which is a huge margin.

Really the Srilanka surprised everyone and played excellent cricket. Also we should not forget that Pakistan is the No. 1 team in ICC T20 ranking and they have been beaten convincingly today. Srilanka will take this win and confidence in the next match and who knows, they may be able to grab the series.

Srilanka can win the match from here as they are bowling really well and they are taking wickets at regular intervals.
This is the problem with T20 as you cannot predict which team is going to win before the match, the only option is to wage a bet after the first innings and how they start their chase. I consider this as an upset if Srilanka could win this match and i am most probably expecting them to win the match as they already lost their top six players. Now this is an impossible task for Pakistan to win this match.

Good to see that they are taking security seriously and finally the Pakistan fans are able to watch International matches. Pakistan lost 5 wickets and they still need 90 runs to win and the required run rate is increasing and they need 13 runs per over. Srilanka can win the match from here as they are bowling really well and they are taking wickets at regular intervals.

Pakistan best batsman Baber Azam gone, OUT. 
Srilanka have given good score to chase. At one time they were looking to make 180+ but thanks to the new bowler Hasnain who took wickets at the depth.
Pakistan lost quick three wickets and we will hopefully witness an upset by the Srilankan team. Umar Akmal is gone first ball duck and Ahmed Shehzad is in the pavilion, right now Iftikhar Ahmed and Sarfaraz Ahmed are in the crease and trying to rebuild the innings, either way it is an interesting battle and let the best team win. Pakistan need 111 runs in 61 balls and it will be fireworks to reach this total.

Pakistan in under pressure at the start of the first T20 in Lahore. Both the srilankan openers are blasting. Pakistan needs to take up wickets quickly else this match can be out of their hand.

By the way, its seems too good seeing international cricket match in my city after a long long time.
Unlike the ODI series Sri Lanka looks in good touch today's match. Maybe they have adjusted themselves to the conditions here. Pradeep is doing some exquisite bowling by swinging the bowl around I think Sri Lanka can beat the odds today. Didn't bet anything today but favorites were definitely Pakistan. It's turning out to be a disaster for them as 4 overs and three batsmen have collapsed looks like Sri Lanka is in a mood to take some revenge. Everyonee had their eyes on Babaz Azam he proved to be a disappointment today.

Srilanka scored 165 and Pakistan needs 166 runs to win the match and we have a good match now. Srilanka could not capitalize on the start they got and the last five overs they could not score that much runs.

How many and which teams are participating in this Pentangular T20I Series ?  Is this only being shown online and can we see all the matches on this youtube channel or just this one ? I could not find any sports channel which is broadcasting it live.
There are five teams in this series, Oman, Ireland, Nepal, Netherlands and Hong Kong and if you are really interested to watch the match live, the Oman cricket board is streaming the match live in youtube.
This is the Youtube channel of Oman cricket board if you want to watch this series live.

Not sure where these matches are broadcasted, all i see is the updates from cricinfo and the scoreboard. I am not having time to watch those matches but if anyone could post any links where we could stream those matches, it will be helpful for people who have more time to watch sports.



No one is interested in these matches and also you can see the above glimpse, It seems this match is happening in a ground and not in a proper cricket stadium.

Srilanka got a flying start and they are cruising at a run rate of above 8 runs per over and they just lost 2 wickets scoring 120 runs and they have more than 5 overs left to reach a challenging total and try to upset Pakistan .

The Oman Pentangular T20I Series has started today, and the first match between the hosts and Hong Kong is currently underway at the Al Amerat cricket ground. The Oman cricket board is streaming all the matches live (first match can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcBz15uXAaU). This series can be crucial for many of the participating teams, as it gives an opportunity for them to improve their T20 ranking.

Ireland will be taking on Netherlands later today, and Nepal will be in action tomorrow against Hong Kong. A few of the familiar names (Kevin O'Brien, Boyd Rankin, Paul Stirling, Sandeep Lamichhane, Colin Ackermann, Ben Cooper, Timm van der Gugten, Roelof van der Merwe, Paul van Meekeren.etc) are participating in this series, and the main aim seems to be to give these teams some practice before the T20 World Cup Qualifiers.
