SL vs PAK, 1st Test: Shafique hundred keeps Pakistan on course in big chase on Day 4

The Hindu  

Pakistan’s Abdullah Shafique smashed his second Test hundred to put the tourist on course to accomplish a mammoth chase on day four of the opening Test against Sri Lanka in Galle on Tuesday. Shafique combined with Imam-ul-Haq in an opening stand of 87 and later raised 101 with skipper Babar Azam in a vastly improved batting display by the tourist, which was skittled out for 218 in the first innings. Imam’s innings ended in a bizarre manner when he let go a ball from spinner Ramesh Mendis but marginally lifted his back foot, in the process allowing Niroshan Dickwella to effect a lightning-fast stumping. Jayasuriya bowled Babar around his legs in the final session though Pakistan appears to have its nose ahead in the contest.
