Due to be Younis' hundredth test.

Dilruwan has been ruled out of the second test. Lakmal will return and Prasad has been cleared to play too.

There was a bit of grass on the pitch earlier today. Not Sri Lanka's favourite ground either.

Rikki!

Chameera and Kaushal in. Pakistan batting after winning the toss and Shehzad dismissed early.

Going by the Mathews dismissal in the first test, Azhar Ali middled that.

Wait WTF? He's really been given. Another questionable decision at the best.... and that's a compliment.

Younis escapes by less than quarter a ball. Thought he was plumb.

But there was more evidence to overturn this decision than the previous. At least no ambiguity in this case.

Whacksters are 5/95. I wonder if they reversed the batting order again like they did in the first test.

Why do we have to listen to Dean Jones?

Surely they could have found someone needing a job wandering around the streets of Colombo. Even if he knew nothing about cricket.

That may have been their thought process when they signed Russel Arnold...

Speaking of commentators, has Sikander Bakht put on any weight since his playing days? He was skinniest test cricketer I have ever seen.

He looks human these days....

Nice way to restart the innings, Misbah run out rather stupidly.

Out. Striking halfway up middle stump.... At least it should've been. Piss poor umpiring

Hats off to Vitanage. That was his third shit dismissal of the series, earlier.

Sri Lanka finding wickets hard to come by. Pakistan now in the lead, effectively 5-97, heading for safety, with Azhar Ali still not out (98) and leading the way.

Happy with my work, though 150+ will still be a tricky chase.

Wicket sounds pretty benign. You'd think SL should successfully scratch out 152 for the win today.
