Pakistan Fight Back, and HOW!

Who would have thought that Pakistan would have even had a chance! As reported earlier, after conceding a 109 run lead in the first innings, Pakistan through Asif and Razzaq decimated Sri Lanks for 73, and ended their innings within one delivery of the morning.

Pakistan immediately put Sri Lanka on the back foot, through an aggressive innings by Kamran Akmal (24 off 26). Younis Khan and Imran Farhat then went on to put together a 114 run stand for the second wicket, with Farhat scoring 65, before being dismissed. Yousuf and Younis then saw through the end of the innings, taking Pakistan to victory in the test and in the series. Good fight Pakistan, and a true winner's performance.
