6:55pm After almost four hours, we have come to the conclusion of the first innings. A brilliant hundred from Gunathilaka set the platform for a 300-plus total but Sri Lanka, including Gunathilaka himself, failed to accelerate. They could reach 297 for 9 only because of Dasun Shanaka's late fireworks. Wahab looked off colour and ended up conceding 81 from his ten overs - the fourth-most in an ODI in Karachi, Raghav informs me. We will be back with the chase soon. Stay tuned.

Wahab Riaz to Shanaka, 1 no ball, length ball this time, looks to go aerial down the ground, gets a top edge and Sarfaraz completes a good catch near short third man. But wait, they are checking for a front-foot no-ball, and Wahab has overstepped here. Shanaka survives, free hit coming up as well
