When we talk about the home team, we all know they have the extra advantage and when you talk about the Sri Lanka team, the spin attack of Sri Lanka is second to none as they can bamboozle any batting lineup on their day – they have a tough chance to Pakistani batters in the last TEST series as well and they will be hoping that they can pick their chance this time which they couldn’t do so in the last TEST series.
