Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
Well done both bowlers (for dismissing Lanka cheaply this morning) and batsmen for making 300+ at 5.25 RPO
well-played Sarfraz, Azhar and Misbah-ul-Haq

57.3
Eranga to Misbah-ul-Haq, 1 run, Misbah, you absolute beauty! Pakistan win! He curls an imaginary moustache at his dressing room and punches the air in triumph! It was short of a length and he guides it to point and just rushes through for the single. The fielder misses the direct hit and Pakistan pull off an incredible, improbable victory to square the series
only 1 needed now
57.2
Eranga to Asad Shafiq, 1 bye, short ball as he sways under it and Misbah runs through for a bye!
57.1
Eranga to Misbah-ul-Haq, 1 run, bouncer outside off stump as Misbah goes back and pulls it down to deep square leg for a single
Pakistan need only 3 off 12 to win this. Everyone in the Pakistan dressing room is up on their feet.

Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
I had not wished this win so badly if Angelo Mathew had not play this extremely negative. his negative attitude is reflecting from his innings of 31 off 195 balls

My sentiments exactly, it was a real bad display on their part but than SL has not won a series abroad since 2000 so they were desperate to win.
Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
Now if anyone tells you that Misbah is not a finisher, quote this match..
Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
Pakistan players invade the field and everyone wants a piece of Misbah. Dav Whatmore hugs him. Both sides exchange pleasantries. Younis Khan nearly squeezes the life out of Azhar Ali. Famous scenes here in Sharjah!
Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
great victory for PK. the unpredictable team did again what they are famous off
Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
Who would have thought? Lankan attitude cost them this match. They never wanted to win it. But hats off to Pakistani batsmen.
Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
^ correct

31 off 128 balls.... 195 minutes :)
Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
Despite levelling the series Pakistan lost 2 points (down from 102) as Lanka are ranked below them but maintained their no. 5 ranking in tests

Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
From Cricinfo:
5.50 pm Pakistan players invade the field and everyone wants a piece of Misbah. Dav Whatmore hugs him. Both sides exchange pleasantries. Younis Khan nearly squeezes the life out of Azhar Ali. Famous scenes here in Sharjah! Sri Lanka did their absolute best to slow down the game, but at the end of it all, those tactics came down to bite them. Rangana Herath's leg-stump line was whacked away. And once that happened Sri Lanka were just too rattled to work out a plan B. Credit to Pakistan, they did not falter when they lost their openers and that cameo from Sarfraz Ahmed - 48 off 46 balls - shifted the balance and Azhar and Misbah-ul-Haq rode it home. If ever a century was best described as match-winning, it is Azhar's today. Battling a fifth day pitch, a steep chase and some questionable tactics from Sri Lanka, he's guided Pakistan home in the kind of match you dream of as a young cricketer.
Re: Pak V SL 3rd test
Azhar Ali is the Man of the Match
