Akmal shouldn't have intercepted if the deflection was too much, should've allowed the edge to carry to the slip.
 
Finally some good test cricket to watch. With a good battle between bat and ball.
 
Why is :rehman looking for LBW all the time! If the captain has given you slip and a gully then you got to bowl it a bit wide of off stump.
 
I doubt if we could get them out before 350. 380 is a more realistic number. No bunny in their lineup for this match.
 
We should be looking to bowl sri lanka out for less then 400 here! or making them earn their runs at snails pace!
 
If Sri Lanka pass 400 then this match would most probably end in a draw..... That is if Pakistan dose not collapse while batting
 
Good comeback by Pakistan MashaAllah.

Need to finish this off because it's not going to be easy batting on this track against 3 spinners (dilshan, herath and randiv).

Amazing Two former muslims in this Sri lankan team.
 
Excellent fightback here by Pakistan! Just need to make sure we get last 3 wickets cheaply here! Could maybe have sri lanka all out for 360?
 
Someone must have got the imam to make special dua for them at jummah. Great to see the fight in this attack.
 
I think Pakistan can not win from here

They can draw if they bat like they have in the series or lose if they dont
 
Prasad looks like a pretty decent batsmen.

Maybe time for Hafeez or junaid!
 
Yeah good fight back but cant wait for the one days. Atleast both teams wont block forever in ODIs.

Tests should only be played on viciously fast/turning tracks.
 
Junaid Khan warming up at gully, he seems to be next in for bowling
 
102 runs so far today from 51 overs!

Painfully slow stuff!
 
again srilanka look very nervous here against :junaid wickets coming soon i can smell it
 
This partnership is becoming anoying now!

need to finish things off and then look to bat well in 1st inns!
 
like i was saying earlier junaid putting the pressure to prasad and silva and finally take the wickets
 
perfect timing for the wicket. Good one by Junaid. He has learned to move the ball both ways.

I gotta say I've been thoroughly impressed by Pakistan's attitude and body language today. It's been very heartening to see.

woah, wasn't expecting such a collapse. Good on the bowlers.

With limiting them to a 350 or so first innings score on a flattish pitch, hopefully we can rule out any chances of a sri lankan win now.
 
Should keep them to ~ 400.

5 sessions for c.400, played Sri. :)

We can do the same, taking us into mid day 4.

DRAW?
 
59 runs in the session for four wickets, Sri Lanka have stalled completely today, and have thrown away the opportunity to build a huge first-innings score. Full marks to the four Pakistan bowlers for perseverance and to Misbah for mostly setting attacking fields
