Sri Lanka have already won the series winning the first two matches and will be looking to clean sweep Afghanistan. This is also a chance for them to test their bench strength even as Afghanistan will be keen on registering their first win of the tour.
Charith Asalanka won the Player of the Match award for his unbeaten 97 off 74 balls. His knock was studded with nine fours and two sixes and came at a strike rate of 131.08.
Sri Lanka and Afghanistan has been quite a rivalry in the ODI format and this series could be yet another entertaining ride for the fans of both teams. Interestingly, Afghanistan defeated Sri Lanka comfortably in the World Cup last year chasing down 242-run target.
Afghanistan's multi-format tour to Sri Lanka will kick off with a one-off Test match at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo on Friday, February 2. Afghanistan have played only seven Tests since getting the full-member nation status and will hope to give a memorable performance to demand more games.
