After being down and out in two consecutive one-day
internationals, Sri Lanka rediscovered their vim at Hambantota and plundered
Pakistan in a ruthless manner. Kausal Perera smashed a blazing hundred while
the Lankan middle order, simply mauled the Pakistani bowling. Sri Lanka posted 368 for 4 in 50 overs and it
was a stifling chase for the Pakistanis. Pakistan scripted a meek surrender.
The fighting spirit of the Pakistanis throughout the tour was hugely missing among the Pakistani players. It was a reluctant unit and the tradition of exhibiting complacent attitudes after securing a Test or ODI series has not diminished from Pakistan’s cricket culture. Yes, as soon as the series is secured, reluctant attitude does crop up in a team; but the best teams don’t allow such things and always play for a win. They might lose the match, but not without a fight.
Pakistan have been superb in this tour and the fans expect them to be consistent and reluctant-free in the upcoming days. Even though, such things have been never been their virtue since Imran Khan left the scene.
