PAK vs SL Dream11 Prediction 1st ODI 2025,Cricket returns to the historicRawalpindi Cricket Stadium as Pakistan and Sri Lanka gear up for the 1st ODI of the Sri Lanka Tour of Pakistan 2025. The series opener carries tactical weight, statistical history, and competitive intent from both sides. While the bilateral rivalry may not always generate headlines like Pakistan–India or Sri Lanka–India battles, the cricketing fabric between Pakistan and Sri Lanka is rich, nuanced, and historic — stretching across decades of Asian cricketing evolution.
As both teams attempt to settle into new leadership dynamics and long-term ODI structures, the series begins with numerous unanswered questions: Pakistan’s middle-order depth, Sri Lanka’s ability to handle Pakistan’s pace surge, and the potential impact of dew under lights.
