Srilanka beat Pakistan in Abu Dhabi test !!!

           


The veteran spinner Rangana Herath spun the web around pakistani batting line-up, which eventually folded up for 114 in persuit of 136.
                  
Srilanka resumed their innings with 4 for 69 but found themselves reeling at 101 for 8 but Dickwella's 40 runs proved very vital in the end as Srilanka set up a target of 136. Yasir Shah picked up a 5-wicket haul to add to his 3 wickets in the first innings, finishing with 8 in the match.
                           

               
 Pakistan, being very Pakistan, started off shaky with the bat, losing 3 wickets for 16 runs. Asad Shafiq was once again picked up by Herath to reduce them to 33 for 5. Sarfraz and Haris stiched up a crucial 41 run partnership. Sarfraz got stumped and Pakistan then couldn't recover from his loss, humbling for 114.

Herath picked 6 in innings and 11 in the match and was declared the MoM.

                 

He became the first bowler to take 100 wickets against Pakistan and also completed 400 wickets in tests, becoming the first left arm spinner to do so.
