One to keep an eye on. Sri Lanka have been on the back foot in this test throughout & have been facing defeat for 4 days now.
They are batting in their 2nd innings now, approaching tea on day 4, & theyve only gone past Pakistans 1st innings total with 5 2nd inngs wickets down. They immediately lost a 6th, but since then Angelo Matthews has been joined by a quick scoring Prasad. Now, at tea they are are 52 clear, still 6 down.
Lanka arent what they were bowling wise, but you have to factor into the equation that Pakistan dont win many games, so these runs are nervous ones for them. Yes, theres work to do for sure, but another 80-100 might produce a dodgy chase, particularly at a deserted neutral venue.
Lanka currently 9.2 & Pakistan can be laid @ 1.26ish
