Srilanka have recovered brilliantly after an early setback.After 36 overs . Srilanka are 116/1.
Sangakkara looks well set for another 100 in this series and he is well supported by Dilshan who is on 48.
Pakistan made no change in their linep from the 2nd test but their counterparts made 2.Randiv and debutant Kulasekara have replaced Thirimanne and Lakmal.
Enjoy the action.

Lol Know-it, its obvious isnt it, Pakistan leading the series with this test to go and the bitterness of his Indian side where he can't bare to see Pakistan win is showing alarmingley. The only reason why Pak won the 2nd test was due to clear nicks, timber and the other umpire giving LBW's.
The worst thing about it all is that we have Simon Taufell on the other side and what must he be thinking?

The top 3 umpires in the world and 2 of them are from Pakistan.. Aleem Dar and Asad Rauf...Rauf was superb in his decision making during the test series in England...
Then you get clowns like this fella.. Standing there with sunglasses on.. The standard of indian umpiring is mind boggling..

Lol Know-it-all I think to save test cricket Taufell should take over from both ends and send this joke back on Air India. Atleast in the one day series we will have Rauf and Dar so he won't be needed again.

As for the game. Sri Lanka's day albeit slow going with 245-2 at stumps. They will need to pick up the pace tomorrow on this flat track to put pressure on Pakistan.

Yes day 2 and 3 will be important in this test match. If Pakistan are still batting at the end of day 3 going into day 4. It will maybe turn into a draw..
