It was the first time an international fifty-over match was being played in Karachi, Pakistan in 10 years. Unfortunately, the Pakistan Cricket Board had to face embarrassment following power cut in the stadium, causing interruptions in the 2nd innings.
One of the six floodlights at National Stadium in Karachi, malfunctioned twice, disrupting the play for 26 minutes. Twitter was quick to pounce on Pakistan Cricket Board for lack of preparation for the series.
Have a look at few hilarious tweets:

What the hell the management has been doing all the time. The lights are down after every 5 minutes.

Pakistan rode on a brilliant century from Babar Azam and fast bowler Usman Shinwari’s five wickets to beat Sri Lanka by 67 runs in the second day-night international. Azam smashed a solid 105-ball 115 to lift Pakistan to 305-7 after the home team won the toss and batted.
