Watch Pakistan Vs. Sri Lanka Cricket Live Stream: 2019 Cricket World Cup Match 11, Start Time, Preview
After a dispiriting 12-game losing streak in 50-overs matches, Pakistan appeared to turn their momentum, and confidence, completely around on Tuesday when they hung on for a shocking, 14-run victory over 2019 Cricket World Cup favorites and hosts, England, as CricInfo recorded. Now, the Men in Green will try to build on that win by taking advantage of a struggling Sri Lanka side that also comes into the match at 1-1 on the tournament.
The Sri Lankan victory came against the longest of World Cup long shots, Afghanistan — and somehow the victory felt like an upset for the once-proud cricketing nation that remains one of only five teams to win the Cricket World Cup. They took home the trophy in 1996. The team from the Emerald Isle will try to engineer a turnaround with a major upset of Pakistan in the match that will live stream from Nevil Road.

With just 337 total runs after two matches in the World Cup, the Sri Lanka batsmen are now faced with the daunting task of finding their form against the stinging pace attack of Pakistan, led by veterans Wahab Riaz and Mohammed Amir. In particular, Angelo Mathews — whose 5,381 ODI runs are ninth-most in Sri Lanka history, per ESPN stats — must get himself together, after scoring exactly zero runs in the first two 2019 World Cup matches, and facing only 11 balls.
