10:16am Kasun Rajitha with the ball. Over the wicket. Two slips and a gully.
10:06am Sri Lanka have declared. A potential 91 overs of play left, so it's unlikely we'll see any forfeiting of innings here. Seems more an exercise to give their bowlers a run. And why not? Might as well get as much out of this game as possible.
Moazam: "Now that it comes to individual milestones, would love to see Babar Azam getting a century here" --- That would be fun to watch.
Faridoon : "Never discount the possibility of Pakistan getting knocked over twice in a day for 150 or less!! Clutching at straws for anything other than rain to remember this game by!!" --- Ah, the old Pakistan supporter anxiety.
Atif: "Mark my words. Pakistan will make a contest out of this. The top order will get out cheaply twice within 30 overs say. The tail ender will heroically survive the day and just avoid innings defeat"
Muddasar: "How does it feel to wait for your century for over 3 days?" --- I've waited over 9,000 days and I can tell you it doesn't feel good at all.
F Rehman: "I wonder players are out for practice, individual performaces or fun?" --- Or just doing their jobs? We all have to show up...
DDS: "DDS! DDS! DDS! DDS! DDS! DDS! "
Dan: "I appreciate individual milestones as much as anybody. But when it is more important than the *context* of a *contest*, I'm not only uninterested; but appalled. Sorry." --- It's been 15 minutes...

James: "Its taken Sri Lanka 5 days to hit 300 runs in the first innings? Pretty average batting if you ask me.."
