Live Cricket Score of Sri Lanka vs Pakistan, 1st Test, Day 5 at Galle

Pakistan turned the tables on Sri Lanka in the first Test after Asad Shafiq hit a century to lead a remarkable rearguard action by the lower order on the fourth day on Saturday. The tourists, who resumed the day at 118-5 in reply to Sri Lanka's 300, piled up 417 in their first innings before being dismissed in the post-tea session with a lead of 117 runs in Galle.

Sri Lanka were 63-2 in their second knock at stumps, having lost first-innings centurion Kaushal Silva (five) and star batsman Kumar Sangakkara (18) in the 21 overs before close. Azhar Ali caught Silva at third slip off Wahab Riaz and later snapped up Sangakkara at short-leg off Yasir Shah. Opener Dimuth Karunaratne was unbeaten on 36 and nightwatchman Dilruwan Perera had yet to score as Sri Lanka enter the final day's play on Sunday still trailing by 54 runs with eight wickets in hand.

Yasir Shah picked up a wicket off the first ball of the day by sending back night-watchman Dilruwan Perera for a duck. The batsman shouldered arms to a straight delivery and was bowled. Sri Lanka slipped to 63/3.
