Following Story was filed before the beginning of the first Test Match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium:
The excitement is on the rise as it’s time to bid adieu to 10-year long wait and witness the first Test match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium starting on Wednesday.
Last time the venue hosted an international Test match is dated back to April 2004 when India inflicted a defeat to Pakistan by an innings and 131 runs.
By and large, it’s been almost 10 years since a foreign team arrived in Pakistan last time to play a Test match. However following the successful occurrence of T20I and ODIs Series on Pakistani soil, now Test matches are also in line.
In a Pre-Match Press Conference held at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on Tuesday, Pakistan Cricket Team Captain Azhar Ali said that the players are upbeat about the Test Series against Sri Lanka.
Azhar Ali said that Srilankans are not an easy side as they are very disciplined, and Pakistani players will have to perform to the best of their abilities to outclass the visitors in the ground.
