Watch Pakistan vs Sri Lanka in the final of their 2026 ODI tri-series , as the two sides from the subcontinent face off at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore with preparations continuing in earnest ahead of next year’s 50-over World Cup. Despite the chaos that constantly dogs Pakistani cricket off the field, they’ve been the best of the three sides on it during this two-week, three-team tournament. They got off to a storming start a pair of comfortable wins, thanks to a century from Salman Ali Agha against Sri Lanka in the first, and a six-wicket haul from spinner Arafat Minhas against England in the second. The most remarkable innings from Shadab Khan helped them to another win over England, his 113* from 96 balls getting the Men in Green over the line by one wicket. Now they have the chance to give their long-suffering fans a reason to smile in the final today – captain Shaheen Shah Afridi won the toss and opted to bowl first. It looked like Sri Lanka’s tournament was heading for the doldrums when England captain Harry Brook smashed a double century against them in their second game. What followed was quite extraordinary, as bulk runs from Pavan Rathnayake, Avishka Fernando and Dasun Shanaka helped them chase down a mammoth 429 with just one ball remaining. A convincing eight-wicket follow-up victory over the hosts secured their place in today’s final. It may not be a squad of the same vintage of their famous 1996 World Cup triumph, but the Lions might just be hitting their stride at the right time ahead of the 2027 competition. A fantastic century from opener Kamindu Mendis laid the foundation for a testing total of 325-8 for the hosts to chase. Pakistan’s batters will need to be at their best to steer their side to victory. Read on as we explain how to watch Pakistan vs Sri Lanka online, on TV and potentially for free wherever you are.
