A Dead Rubber to Build up Moral in the Teams

               It's not about losses with both Srilanka and Pakistan, but the way they are losing is a bigger concern for them to build a moral in the short space ahead of world T20, as both teams face on each other in the final league  match of AsiaCup on Friday.
              Pakistan suffering with their unending batting Vows from years, but with the preparations they had in the PSL have not replicated with the bat in the main stage. The top order performance is a worry for them, young batsmen struggling even in making starts along with Hafeez.
             As Mathews said they still not consider themselves going through transition period, coz the lites of Sanga and Mahela retired from T20 back in 2014. But it also added concern with injury to their premier bowler and captain.
             Srilankan's yet finding their combination in the batting order, although they should have done much better with the talent they have in the side. Irrespective of the result their batsmen should find their groves against quality Pakistan bowling to lift their moral up.
             Bowlers are not given enough runs to defend so far by the pak batsmen, eventhough they feel quite good with their bowling performance which as been their strength. They depend lot on lites of Akmal, Malik and Sarfaraz, but with the fall of early wickets it always a situation for them to rebuilding an Innings.
              So far the pitch favoured bowlers for the most part of the game, but now with cut in grass made it an good deck for batsmen. while bowlers will be in picture through the early phase of the Innings.
               Going in to the match there is nothing to chose with the batting  performance, while Pakistan can turn good with their good bowling attack if they get something on the board to defend.
