Lahore?s Gaddafi Stadium is all set to witness history as the Green Shirts take on Sri Lanka for the final T20I on Sunday.Β 

Pakistan already lead the T20I series 2-0, after beating Sri Lanka by seven wickets in the opening game and winning a last-ball thriller in the second T20I. Today's match, however, is much more than just a game of cricket.

The occasion marks the homecoming of top-level international cricket as Sri Lanka become the first major cricket team to visit Pakistan since they were targeted in a deadly ambush in 2009 -- with attack survivors among those returning to the scene.

Here are some highlights of the match:Β
