PAK vs SL Key Battles:
Sahibzada Farhan vs Dushmantha Chameera
After a disappointing performance opening the innings in the last match, Sahibzada Farhan will be looking to bounce back the run count and lead his team to a win against the 2014 T20 World Cup winners.
Farhan will have to face the challenge of Dushmantha Chameera, who bowled match-winning bowling at crucial moments in the last match by taking four wickets.
Babar Azam vs Wanindu Hasaranga

Babar will have to deal with the bowling of Wanindu Hasaranga, who has come back into form at the right time and will look to put it to good use in the upcoming match.
Pathum Nissanka vs Shaheen Afridi
Sri Lanka opener Pathum Nissanka, who played an unbeaten innings against Zimbabwe, will be hoping to do something similar after failing to make a significant contribution in the last clash against the Men in Green.
Nissanka will face the challenge of Shaheen Afridi, who is likely to make a comeback in the team considering the magnitude of the next match.
Kusal Mendis vs Mohammad Nawaz
Former Sri Lanka captain Kusal Mendis played a timely and aggressive innings after losing in-form Sri Lankan batsman Pathum Nissanka early in the previous encounter, and he will be looking to build on that and help Sri Lanka lift the trophy.
Mendis will be up against Mohammad Nawaz, who struggled to deal with the pressure put on him by the Sri Lankan batsmen in the middle overs in the last match, and will look to put things right in the final.
