Sri Lanka win by 14 runs! It was a close finish and Sri Lanka prevailed in the end. With this the series ends in a tie at one each. Pakistan won the series opener and then second T20I was completely washed out. Sri Lanka had to win this to draw level and they did it. Even though rain played spoilsport earlier and the match was reduced to 12 overs per-side but we have had a game and that too entertaining one.

Sri Lanka did finish strong and have put on 160/6 on board in their allotted 12 overs. Captain Dasun Shanka played a vital cameo as he smashed Mohammad Wasim for back to back three sixes before being dismissed on 34 off just 9 deliveries. This is going to be a big ask for Pakistan.

Sri Lanka National Cricket Team vs Pakistan National Cricket Team Live Score Updates Online:  Pakistan enters the third and final PAK vs SL T20I 2026 against Sri Lanka, with a 1-0 series lead and the opportunity to secure a significant morale-boosting victory. You can check the Sri Lanka National Cricket Team vs Pakistan National Cricket Team match scorecard here.  Following a complete washout in the SL vs PAK 2nd T20I 2026, the hosts, Sri Lanka, find themselves in a must-win position to avoid a series defeat on home soil. However, rain might yet again play spoilsport as the weather is currently rainy in Dambulla. Pakistan Beat Sri Lanka by 6 Wickets in 1st T20I 2026; Sahibzada Farhan, Abrar Ahmed, and Salman Mirza Shine As Visitors Go 1–0 Up.

Pakistan, led by Salman Ali Agha, have opted for a refreshed squad this series, with several senior stars like Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi currently participating in Australia’s Big Bash League. In their absence, opener Sahibzada Farhan has emerged as a key figure, following his composed half-century in the first match.

Sri Lanka, captained by Dasun Shanaka, are searching for batting stability. While Janith Liyanage provided some resistance in the opener, the top order struggled against the pace of Salman Mirza and the spin of Abrar Ahmed. The hosts are expected to rely heavily on the world-ranked all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga to disrupt the opposition.
