By Saurabh Sharma December 22, 2019 • 21:50 PM View: 1150

Karachi, Dec 22: Pakistan were on the verge of winning the second and final Test against Sri Lanka as a combined bowling effort led by Naseem Shah (3/31) reduced the visitors to 212/7 at the close of fourth day's play at the National Stadium here on Sunday, even as opener Oshada Fernando showed grit and determination with an unbeaten knock of 102.

Apart from Fernando, Niroshan Dickwella also chipped in with 65 runs down the order while all the other batsmen failed to show any resistance. Sri Lanka still need 264 runs to avoid a defeat.
