7.32pm So Pakistan keep Sri Lanka to a pretty subpar total given the conditions. Kamil Mishara scored briskly at the top of the order, but once he fell the innings slowly - and then all at once, when Nawaz was cleaning house through the middle overs - fell apart. Janith Liyanage did his best to get Sri Lanka up to something resembling respectable with his 41 off 38, but this innings was all about Pakistan's bowlers, who all contributed in throttling Sri Lanka. Nawaz was the pick of the bunch with 3 for 16. Danyal will be back with the chase shortly.
