It was such a roller coaster ride. Incredible effort from the entire team but @SarfarazA_54 knock was the cherry on the top. #SLvPAK #CT17

Disappointing loss. At the end forget @OfficialSLC batting or bowling the fielding let the team down badly. It was there to be won.

Like I said at the start it was important to nail the basics for @OfficialSLC to win.
— Kumar Sangakkara (@KumarSanga2) June 12, 2017
Great fight back by the bowlers led by Lasith Malinga and @Angelo69Mathews. @OfficialSLC will be thinking for sure about what might've been
— Kumar Sangakkara (@KumarSanga2) June 12, 2017
Disappointing loss today for @OfficialSLC hard to take that all in. @TheRealPCB took there chances and got over the line.

Malinga's great strength was bowled and lbw. With reduced pace, has to rely on fielders and has been let down very badly

Catches win matches might be cliche....but it still holds true. Don't believe me? Ask Sri Lanka and Malinga. #CT17 #PakvSA

Malinga was the key match winner when SL had that great run in global events. He might not play in 2019. Didn't deserve to go out like this.

Sri Lanka's players can now wash the butter off their fingers. Haven't seen such nervousness, so many mistakes in an ODI
— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) June 12, 2017
Great match,but Sri Lanka pathetic in the field. One of the worst fielding performances ever at International level. Congrats Pak.#PAKvSL
— Mohammad Kaif (@MohammadKaif) June 12, 2017
Pakistan have beaten Sri Lanka in 10 out of 11 games in ICC ODI tournaments. Seven out of seven in WCs. Three out of four in CTs. #CT17
— Mazher Arshad (@MazherArshad) June 12, 2017
There isn't a dull moment when Pakistan is playing cricket...ICC should consider charging more for their games. Too much excitement. #CT17

CONGRATS PAKISTAN!!

Retweet if u had any mini heart attacks whilst watching Pak today!!! #PAKvSL
All those who abused the PCB and Team Pakistan last week should say SORRY.
— Najam Sethi (@najamsethi) June 12, 2017
Do you think England have one bad batting day in them and Pakistan one good one? #CT17
