Sri Lanka vs Pakistan Score, 1st Test of Pakistan vs Sri Lanka in UAE 2017

OUT! L.B.W. Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Rangana Herath to Mohammad Abbas. Stock length ball, off stump on the back foot cutting, hit pad. Interesting shot selection from Abbas, who goes right back to a length delivery. The ball skids on with the arm and thuds into the backpad before he can get his bat down in time. Plumb LBW, and it gives Sri Lanka the victory!

A cracking Test Match to open the series. Rangana Herath gets to 400 Test wickets, with 100 of them coming against Pakistan. The first four days were slow going, but it ended up turning into a thriller. Pakistan fought hard, but have come out on the losing side for the first time in Abu Dhabi.
