Pakistan were beaten in a Test series for the first time on Sri Lankan soil when Younis Khan's men lost the first two matches before drawing the final game in Colombo last week.
But Younis is confident a change in personnel and infusion of new blood for the five one-day matches will revive the tourists and provide entertaining cricket for fans.
"There are many players in the team who did not play the Test series, and they are keen to prove that Pakistan are one of the best one-day teams in the world," he said.
"The Tests are behind us, we look forward to doing well in the one-dayers," said Younis, who led Pakistan to victory over Sri Lanka in the World Twenty20 final at Lord's, England in June.
All-rounder Shahid Afridi, who was man of the match in both the semi-final and final of the World Twenty20, returns to bolster the tourists after opting out of the Test series.
Pakistan will also welcome back seamer Rana Naved and opening batsman Imran Nazir.
