After an action-packed two games, Pakistan and Sri Lanka will officially draw the curtains on the ODI series with the third and final match at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on Sunday. The final fixture carries far less pressure, but plenty of significance for both camps.Pakistan have already wrapped up the series 2–0, powered by Babar Azam’s outstanding century in the second ODI — a masterclass that reminded everyone why he remains one of the most consistent ODI batters in world cricket. With the trophy secured, the hosts now shift their focus toward fine-tuning combinations and possibly giving bench players a chance before the busy period ahead.The spotlight, however, may once again fall on Shaheen Shah Afridi. After sitting out the second ODI due to illness, a return could be on the cards if the team management feels he needs one final outing before the upcoming tri-series. With Pakistan still shaping their long-term strategy in white-ball cricket, any opportunity for their ODI captain to gather rhythm and confidence will be crucial.Sri Lanka, meanwhile, will be playing for pride. Despite showing sparks of resistance, they have struggled to close out key moments across both games. A win in the final would at least give them momentum for the T20I tri-series ahead.How to Watch Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Third ODIFans across Pakistan can follow every ball live on PTV Sports, A Sports, and Ten Sports, all broadcasting the encounter in high definition with full pre- and post-match coverage.
