Afridi took three wickets for 28 runs from his four overs to help Pakistan restrict Sri Lanka to 133 for eight in the Super Four game on Tuesday.

In reply, Pakistan were in big trouble at 80 for five, but a stirring fightback from Mohammad Nawaz (38 not out off 24 balls) and Hussain Talat (32 not out off 30 balls) eventually took the team home.

It was a confidence-boosting win for Pakistan, which lost to India by six wickets, their seventh straight defeat to the arch-rivals

(4-0-18-2) regained his rhythm after a poor performance against Pakistan on Sunday.
