In the spotlight

This is Shahid Afridi's format. This was Afridi's team. With his dozen-a-minute expressions and frenzied hand-waving on the field, he had successfully managed to hold together a team that many expected to fall apart. And then, the leadership was rudely yanked from under his feet after a series win in the West Indies, sending him into bitterness and temporary retirement. He has said that he has no problems playing under Misbah, having "played under a lot of captains, like around 11 or 12." But he is no ordinary player; he is the dethroned captain and was the heartbeat of his side during the World Cup. To say that his performance - and his interaction with Misbah - will be watched, is to state the obvious.

	Pakistan team
Mohammad Hafeez, Imran Farhat, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq*, Umar Akmal, Shahid Afridi, Abdul Razzaq, Sarfraz Ahmed†, Umar Gul, Aizaz Cheema, Saeed Ajmal

	Sri Lanka team
WU Tharanga, TM Dilshan*, KC Sangakkara†, LD Chandimal, DPMD Jayawardene, AD Mathews, CKB Kulasekara, S Prasanna, SL Malinga, CRD Fernando, RAS Lakmal

Russell Arnold in the pitch report reckons the fast bowlers might get a bit of assistance given the sprinkling of grass on the track, but the spinners might struggle. He says a score of around 270 will be challenging.

Toss: Dilshan has won the toss and decided to bat. Kumar Sangakkara will keep. Misbah says he would have batted first, but thinks the dew might play a role later in the day. The return of Afridi and Razzaq is a big boost, he says.
Hello and welcome to our coverage of the first ODI between Pakistan and Sri Lanka being played at the Dubai Sports City. Pakistan tool the Test series 1-0; the main attraction in these ODIs will be the return of some star players. Lasith Malinga comes back for Sri Lanka and Shahid Afridi makes a comeback for Pakistan following a period of temporary 'retirement'. We'll get you the details from the toss when it happens. In the meantime, check out the preview.


Malinga and I think Pak should include Junaid instead of Ajmal

Any one knows any site from where we can purchase live streaming which is reliable as well for this series? I used to use tvandsportstreams.tv but since last month, it is been acting a bit weird. Will really appreciate your help.

23.2
Shahid Afridi to Jayawardene, no run, Appeal for an lbw and we have a referral, That went on straight, Mahela gets across and tries to play it through midwicket while closing the face, misses, replays show it would have scraped the leg-stump, the umpire had given it not out and he upholds that decision since it's only scraping the leg stump
