Afridi knocking over Sri Lanka who are currently 6/110
Afridi 3/38
Just to touch on this match Locky as it finished yesterday (day 5) with Pakistan winning by 4 wickets chasing down 344.
It's Pakistan's second highest successful forth innings run chase.
Pakistani opener Abdullah Shafique finished with 160* from 408 balls batting for 524 mins. That's the third longest innings by minutes in a forth innings and the third highest individual score in successful forth innings run chase.
Sri Lanka spinner Prabath Jayasuriya took 9/217 from 95.2 overs for the match. Opening the bowling in Pakistan's second innings he bowled 56.2 overs out of the 127.2 overs they faced.
An opening batsman going big and batting a huge amount of time and a spinner bowling a massive amount of overs, the match sure went the distance while managing to come to a result with Sri Lanka still a chance to win until the end, good to see.
