Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Fakhar Zamanb Akila Dananjaya 43 45 4 1 95.56
16.4
A Dananjaya to F Zaman, OUT! Knocked him over! It is not easy to keep a bowler with a bag full of tricks quiet! After being hit out of the ground on the previous ball, Dananjaya floats this flipper up around off. Zaman plays for the non-existent turn and ends up missing the ball completely, only to find his off stump shattered. He looks clueless and disappointed. Pakistan lose their second, this time a set batsman. The visitors are over the moon and they should be!
Ahmed Shehzadc Akila Dananjaya b Lahiru Gamage 0 12 0 0 0
3.5
L Gamage to A Shehzad, OUT! Shehzad departs for a 12-ball duck! What a terrible waste of a wicket that is! Gamage bowls it around off and middle, Shehzad gets fidgety as he was yet to get off the mark. Looks to get down the track and go over mid-wicket but the bat turns in his hands and he ends up spooning a simple catch towards square leg where Dananjaya makes no mistake. The bowler is ecstatic and why not. Early strike for Sri Lanka!
Babar Azamc Kusal Mendis b Suranga Lakmal 103 131 5 0 78.63
48.2
S Lakmal to B Azam, OUT! Pakistan have switched on their self-destruction mode it seems! At the business end of the innings, they are losing wickets quickly to be devoid of any momentum. It is bowled around middle and off, Azam looks to smash it out of the park but gets it high off the bat. The long on fielder, Dananjaya, settles under it and takes it. End of a terrific knock here at a vital time for his side, the coach applauds the effort too!
Mohammad Hafeezc Thisara Perera b Jeffrey Vandersay 32 38 5 0 84.21
27.6
J Vandersay to M Hafeez, OUT! Very poor shot next ball! Hafeez has to walk back now. All this while he has been picking up the length early and also finding the gaps on the field, but on this occasion he falters. Vandersay bowls this shorter and quicker around middle, the batsman goes back to pull. But gets it only as far as wide long on. Perera runs to his right and easily takes the catch. The visitors are ecstatic as Hafeez is a good player of spin and could have hurt them had he stayed a bit longer.
Shoaib Malikc Akila Dananjaya b Suranga Lakmal 81 61 5 2 132.79
46.6
S Lakmal to S Malik, OUT! Dangerman Malik has to depart! Sri Lanka are happy as the end overs damage could potentially be less. Lakmal lands it on a length around off, Malik stays deep and looks to smash it over deep mid-wicket. The ball travels straight to Dananjaya in the deep there. Lakmal thanks the almighty. Pakistan lose a wicket at the wrong time here! Nevertheless, it has been a very good innings by Malik.
Sarfraz Ahmed (C) (W)c Upul Tharanga b Thisara Perera 1 3 0 0 33.33
47.5
T Perera to S Ahmed, OUT! The skipper's gone now! Thank you for coming, says Perera! He hurls a slower delivery around off, Ahmed looks to slog it away. Gets a top edge that goes to the fielder, Tharanga, at point. The Pakistan coach is seen fuming there as that wicket fell. Sri Lanka would be happy to see the back of a potential good hitting batsman cheaply!

Niroshan Dickwella (W)c Sarfraz Ahmed b Rumman Raees 19 13 3 0 146.15
3.3
R Raees to N Dickwella, OUT! Dickwella walks back! Early strike for Pakistan, courtesy Rumman Raees! He raises his right arm to celebrate the triumph there. Bowls it in the channel outside off, Dickwella is squared up as he looks to poke at that. Gets the faintest of nicks to the keeper who makes no mistake in taking that. The crowd roars in excitement as they know the importance of this wicket. Dickwella looked good but now that's it from him tonight.
Upul Tharanga (C)b Mohammad Hafeez 18 38 3 0 47.37
12.6
M Hafeez to U Tharanga, OUT! This was always coming. Tharanga looked very fidgety as he was unable to rotate the strike and score. Hafeez has worked him up well in this over. He fires this delivery in line of the stumps, Tharanga goes for the ugly hoick but misses and finds his woodwork shattered. Excellent bit of bowling by the experienced Hafeez. Pakistan are on top here.
Dinesh Chandimallbw b Rumman Raees 4 9 0 0 44.44
5.2
R Raees to D Chandimal, OUT! Chandimal goes and with him the sole review that Sri Lanka had. What a start for Pakistan! The crowd is into it now as heard from the cheers. Raees steams in and spears it on a length around middle and leg. Chandimal looks to clip it away but misses and gets struck on the pads. The players appeal and the umpire raises the finger slowly. Chandimal decides to take the DRS. Hawk Eye shows three reds and signals the end of Dinesh's stay. He looked off balance as he played that shot and that isn't good. Raees is on a roll here in Dubai! The visitors are rocked early in the piece.
Lahiru Thirimannelbw b Rumman Raees 53 74 3 0 71.62
32.1
R Raees to L Thirimanne, OUT! The bowling change has worked! Ruman Raees, he has been terrific today. A wicket of the first ball of his second spell. He gets his third. He comes steaming in and bowls an inswinger on a length around off. The ball shapes in late. Thirimanne tries to defend but is beaten by pace and the late swing. The ball goes onto hit him on the pads. The players appeal and the umpire raises his finger. That was plumb. Thirimanne walks back after playing a hard fought innings.
Kusal Mendisc Sarfraz Ahmed b Hasan Ali 2 8 0 0 25
15.5
H Ali to K Mendis, OUT! Sri Lanka slip further into misery! The youngster, Kusal Mendis, is the next victim. Ali bangs it short around off and middle, Mendis looks to pull but gets a top edge. The ball goes high up in the sky and Sarfraz Ahmed settles under it to pouch it safely. Ali celebrates on the batsman's face! The visitors are still 226 away from the target.
Milinda Siriwardanab Hasan Ali 0 1 0 0 0
15.6
H Ali to M Siriwardana, OUT! Two in two, Hasan Ali is on fire! What a delivery for a new batsman! Siriwardana is gone for a golden duck. Ali steams in from round the wicket and bowls a yorker around middle and leg. Siriwardana plays all around that and that's that. Hasan Ali displays his trademark celebration. The crowd is roaring and so are the Pakistan players on the field. The visitors are in deep, deep trouble. Ali will be on a hat-trick in the next over.
Thisara Pererac sub b Shadab Khan 21 29 1 1 72.41
25.6
S Khan to T Perera, OUT! In the air... taken! Another one bites the dust! A very good catch by the sub Fahim Ashraf. Shadab tosses it up on middle, wanting Perera to take a chance. He does so and goes for the biggie but hits it straight up in the air. Ashraf comes running in from deep mid-wicket, settles himself under it and takes it. The big hitting all-rounder is walking back now. Pakistan are now only 4 wickets away from a victory.

H Ali to J Vandersay, OUT! Finally, finally Pakistan get the breakthrough! Hasan bangs in a short ball which kept coming into the batsman. Vandersay tries to take evasive action but the ball kept coming in. It takes the glove and goes to the keeper who catches it. The Pakistan players appeal and the umpire raises his finger. The frustrating 68-run stand comes to an end.
