Late order resistance from Thisara Perera helped Islanders get past 200-run mark, but it was not enough as the team was bowled out for 208 in the 49th over.
Hasan was the pick of the bowlers for Green Caps, as he finished his spell with the figures of 5-34.
For Sri Lanka, captain Upul Tharanga finished the innings with the top score of 61, whereas Tharanga scored brisk 38.
In response, Pakistan easily chased down the target inside 43 overs, courtesy brilliant batting performance from debutante Imamul Haq, who finished the innings with the top score of 100.
