Success of Pakistani Cricketers in Test Series against SriLanka Held in UAE - Sports - Soccer

The Pakistani players even after being under so much stress and under pressure due to the spot fixing scandal played remarkably in the test series against Sri lanka on a infrequent rain-hit day in Sharjah. Appropriately, Misbah-ul Haq, the man who took over as skipper and provided a backbone to a team that was in confusion last year, hang about victorious to make sure there were no implosions and substantiate the draw.

The outcome broaden Sri Lanka's winless smudge to 14 Tests, again prominence their struggle to come to conditions with the defeat of Muttiah Muralitharan. They deceived by batting on the final day of this must-win Test, in spite of a three-hour rain postponement. They were 237 ahead by stumps on the fourth day, an adequately great escort in a match where the run-rate had been around two-and-a-half over the first four days, but they weren't sure enough to proclaim at the start of play when 67.2 over's remained. As a substitute of going all out for a triumph, they strangely batted out four over's before calling an end to their innings.

A Pakistani player needs applause and they need to be given a peace of mind to play well in near future too, so that they can have a final victory. Pakistan wanted a great start if they were to make a severe angle at the target of 255 in 61 over's. Their openers began efficiently; with Mohammad Hafeez ripping a couple of fours past point early on. Pakistan was 20 for 0 midway through the fifth over, but their force was taken away by a direct hit from replacement Lahiru Thirimanne at midwicket, which fixed Hafeez short. PCB invested really well to train the players to meet up the upcoming challenges by the opponents.

It was relaxed moment for Pakistani players in the end, with Shafiq and Misbah stonewalling 16 overs in the finale. Misbah even shared a cheerful instant with Sangakkara as the match wound down, lightheartedly emulating a left-hand batsman. With Pakistan winning their first series over a better-ranked team since they beat India at home in 2005-06, Misbah could well afford to smile. Pakistani players made a real success for the cricket industry in Pakistan.
