Sri Lanka will look to clean sweep Afghanistan when the teams clash in the final T20I on February 21. The match will be played at the Dambulla International Stadium and will start at 7:00 PM IST.
Sri Lanka continued their winning run in the series and defeated Afghanistan by 72 runs in the second T20I. The hosts batted first and posted a big target of 187. Afghanistan in the chase collapsed and were eventually bowled out for a mere 115.
