The first Test match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka being played in Galle has reached an exciting turn. The play of the fourth day of the match is over and on the fifth day, while Pakistan will have to score 120 runs to win, the hosts Sri Lanka will have to take seven wickets. On the fourth day of the match, the Pakistan team looked in a strong position, but the wicket of captain Babar Azam shortly before the end of the day's play must have increased the tension of the visiting team. However, the way Abdullah Shafiq is sitting on the crease with a peg, the road to Sri Lanka's victory also looks full of thorns. Chasing the target of 342 runs, Pakistan scored 222 runs for three wickets till the end of the day's game. Shafiq 112 and Mohammad Rizwan returned not out after scoring seven runs.

 

Babar Azam became the victim of Prabhat Jayasuriya by scoring 55 runs. On the fourth day, the Sri Lankan team was reduced to 337 runs in the second innings. Dinesh Chandimal returned not out after scoring 94 runs. In the second innings for Pakistan, Mohammad Nawaz took five wickets while Yasir Shah took three wickets. Chasing the target of 342 runs, the Pakistan team got off to a good start.

 

Shafiq and Imam-ul-Haq added 87 runs for the first wicket. Imam-ul-Haq was stumped by his stupidity off Ramesh Mendis and Pakistan got the first blow in this way. Imam got out after scoring 35 runs. After this, Pakistan's score reached only 104 runs and Azhar Ali became Jayasuriya's first victim by scoring just six runs. After this Babar and Shafiq played a century partnership to get Pakistan out of trouble. From the point of view of the World Test Championship, this match is very important for both teams. Sri Lanka is third in the points table while Pakistan is in the fourth position.
