Karachi, Dec 23: As Pakistan on Monday thrashed Sri Lanka by a huge margin of 263 runs in the Karachi Test to win the historic two-match series 1-0, an elated home side skipper Azhar Ali hailed both his bowlers and batsmen for stepping up in their respective departments to hand the Green Brigade a much needed series win.

The series also marked the return of Test cricket to Pakistan after 10 years as Sri Lanka were the last team to play Tests there, in 2009, when their tour was cut short by an attack on the team bus.
