Pakistan succumbed to their lowest ODI score in five years as a pathetic 102 all out helped Sri Lanka claim a seven-wicket victory in the series decider here on Saturday

Thisara Perera took four lower-order wickets but Pakistan's batsmen only had themselves to blame for their calamity before Sri Lanka comfortably knocked off the runs with a whopping 178 balls to spare, thanks to Tillakaratne Dilshan's unbeaten 50, as they clinched the series 2-1.
Heavy rain meant the contest was reduced to 48 overs per side and Sri Lanka's victory target narrowed down to 101.
