good bowling by Pradeep, lets hope he doesn't break down with an injury too..we need Misbah quickly..
@Andy- I gather he is at 7 as he has a groin strain apparently..

Safraz showing his class again, personally, I rate this guy highly and think he will do well in world cricket for Pakistan..

Haha well done umpires. Pradeep has been the clear bowler of the day, he deserves the chance to add a rabbit tomorrow morning to his threefer.

You had to wonder what the selectors saw in him other than some raw talent a couple of years ago when he was averaging god knows what and had little domestic success to boot, however credit to the coaches and his own hard work to get himself fit enough to play test cricket, and also to be armed with the necessary patience and skills to succeed, I think the fact that he has worked his way towards this rather than burst on the scene straight away is encouraging, but time shall tell...

Good day too, everyone contributing except for my boi Lakmal, who's looked of colour since NZ, a shame, he was bowling really well until then

Randomly I was at the hotel where both teams were staying yesterday.. Was surprised to see all of them just eating regular food at the morning buffet at 8am.. and just hopping on the bus right after..

- Was on the elevator with Mushtaq Ahmed, wished him good luck
- Dinesh Chandimal was the first SL at the buffet..
- All the fast bowlers stuck together
- Waqar Younis was eating alone
- Nuwan Pradeep sheepishly went and got some extra coconut water
- A female friend who had no idea about cricket asked to take a photo with Jehan Mubarak and asked him "do you play for SL or Pak?"
- Dinesh Chandimal is a famewhore
- Kaushal Silva really is as short as he seems
- Angelo Matthews didn't even make the buffet - dude is too cool for breakfast.

^ All important details that should be evaluated thoroughly in these forums no doubt.

the roles have been reversed.

Why the hell are pakistan's bowlers so toothless on a helpful deck while Sri Lankan seamers are making the pak batsmen jump around (i know pak batsmen are ****e but still)

now can we please have some quick wickets to follow these? And not start to sit on just the initial breakthrough?

There's no way Pakistan are chasing anything over 150 on this wicket, and that too in the last innings
