  • 49.6

    OUT! Caught. Wahab Riaz to Dasun Shanaka. Length ball, off stump backing away cutting, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to extra cover, by Sohail. That is all folks, a great innings from Sri Lanka gives them a great total try and draw this series up, the pitch was very friendly to them, not much movement off the wicket so eventhough it is a big total, Pakistan will be eager to get out there and play on this deck. The star of the innings was Danushka with his 133 that really set the tone at the end, with wickets in hand they swung at everything and got nearly to that 300 mark. The fielding from Pakistan was woeful, if they had a better display in the field you could be looking at a sub-par score from Sri Lanka.
