Pakistani pacers performance must be appreciated and Waqar impact is looking in their bowling even on this track.
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Paksitan needs 270 rusn to win this match 
I think Sarfraz should come as opener
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
SL 282 (109 overs) RR 2.58 with lead of 270
108.6
Saeed Ajmal to Mathews, OUT, short, a bit of width, and he cuts this to point. Another run-out appeal as they run the quick single and Wahab fires in the throw to the keeper. Welegedara's bat is definitely a few inches short of the crease as Sarfraz whips off the bails
UWMBCA Welegedara run out 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

**
2.15pm They’ve taken tea now, and Pakistan’s target is 271. Excellent effort from Pakistan to bowl Sri Lanka out for 282, considering they only had three bowlers. Sangakkara and Jayawardene looked like they might take the match away with one last century partnership, but Ajmal dismissed both in the morning to bring Pakistan back into the contest. Mathews batted well and rallied the lower order around him, but Wahab ensured Sri Lanka wouldn’t get their lead over 300 with three wickets after lunch.**
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
271 is the target. Not impossible but it will take some doing (considering our batting)
Time or overs are not a problem but can they really do it?
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Today Lankans scored 105/8 in 46 overs. Super effort by Pakistan
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
InshaAllah I hope they will play positive cricket like they played in UAE
Anything can happen in cricket but at least our openers should play their role as well as Top Order which are struggling throughout the series.

Nuka: “Though an Indian, i cant restrict myself to praise Wahab and Ajmal, they were exceptional, particularly Wahab, he bowled his heart out in the absence of Junaid, even in 107th over of the innings he was running in with full throttle, would love to see the Indians doing the same today against England”
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
39/4
Pak in dire straits
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Herath Murli Waran 
56/5
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
As I said they should send Sarfraz as opener and now again Sarfraz and Asad on wicket.
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Pakistan and Indians batting line are on same track.

Muneeb: “Who says Pakistan doesn’t produce Stars. Pakistan excels in it rather. Be it Rangana Herath (SL), Paul Harris (SA), Marcus North (Aus), Daryll Tuffey (NZ), Kukasekara (SL), Amit Mishra (IND)”

Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Suicidal attempt but thanks got they are in three figures :p
34.4
Herath to Asad Shafiq, OUT, gone! This was always going to be a danger when you keep running at the bowler on a turning track. This is a lovely length by Herath, slow and turning, dips just in front of the advancing Shafiq then grips and slips past the blade. Dickwella does some sharp work behind the stumps.
Asad Shafiq st †Dickwella b Herath 32 (62b 5x4 0x6) SR: 51.61
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Herath total 13 wicket so far
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Inclusion of Fawad is very necessary in test squad now.
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Time for Misbah to retire
Re: 2nd Test: Sri Lanka v Pakistan at Colombo (SSC), 14 August 2014
Inclusion of Fawad is very necessary in test squad now.
You are talking about inclusion of Fawad and I would not be surprised if Sarfarz gets dropped in next test ... even though iSarfarz made highest score of the inning in last 3 test innings. :)
Do you know that Fawad made century (168 runs) in his debut match, that also outside Pakistan, and as opener (when he is not natural opener) when Pakistan team had crumbled in that inning ... still in next test he was out of team.
