Afghanistan have yet to win a single game on their tour to Sri Lanka. They have lost three consecutive games now, including the one-off test and ODI series. The third and final ODI will take place on February 14 (Wednesday).
Sri Lanka have a 2-0 unassailable lead, and they have a good chance to make it a 3-0 whitewash. On the other hand, Afghanistan fought hard in the first ODI, but they were completely blown away in the second one. They need a good performance as a unit to challenge a strong Sri Lankan side in their conditions.
