SL vs PAK, Pakistan in Sri Lanka 2023, 1st Test at Galle, July 16 – 20, 2023 – Full Scorecard

11.6 to Shan Masood, pushes him onto the back foot and hits him on the pad. A huge appeal the umpire turns down, and Sri Lanka decide to have another look And would you believe it, it’s three reds! It looked like it might just clip leg stump and save him on umpire’s call, but no such luck. Shan is bemused, but he has to go. Sri Lanka get a big wicket. 67/3

55.6 to Agha Salman, And he’s given it away! Agha comes down the track and swings at this looking to take it over long-on, but doesn’t get to the pitch and this turns between bat and pad. Sadeera completes the easiest stumping he’s likely to make.. 278/6

73.2 to Noman Ali, Noman must go! His luck runs out. Goes back again for a good length ball, but this goes on with the arm traps him in front of middle and off. Strikes him on the back pad, and Pakistan don’t even bother reviewing. That was plumb.. 330/7

116.5 to Naseem Shah, cleans him up, finally!. Missed a full-ish one that ripped sharply and knocked back his off stump, which means Abrar has one ball to survive if Shakeel is to get to 200. 440/9

121.2 to Abrar Ahmed, tried to club it over fine leg and connected really well, only for Angelo Mathews to take a brilliant catch in the deep. He had moved across to help it over the top behind square and looked for all the world like he was going to clear the man. But Mathews is an excellent fielder, and took a good catch on the edge of the boundary while keeping his feet the right side of the line. 461/10
