Karachi: Sri Lankan team is on a tour to Pakistan. This is the first Pakistan tour of a foreign team after a long time. The second match of the three match series between Pakistan and Sri Lanka team is being played at the National Stadium in Karachi. A match was cancelled earlier due to rain, in which even the toss could not be held.
After the terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus in 2009, only one ODI series has been played on the Pakistani soil, when in 2015 the Zimbabwe team visited Pakistan. In such a situation, it can be said that for the first time on the soil of Pakistan after more than ten years, the coin of Sri Lanka vs Pakistan ODI International match has fallen, that is, the toss in the one-day match between two countries.
