Sangakkara 199 n.o. as Lanka dominate Pak

Pakistan was reduced to 48 for five wickets at stumps on day two of the first test in reply to Sri Lanka's commanding first innings total of 472 all out.

Pakistan's batsmen crumbled in a disastrous final session at the Galle International Stadium on Saturday.

The tourists remain 424 runs behind Sri Lanka and need to score a further 225 runs to avoid the follow on.

Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara narrowly missed out on his ninth double hundred as he was left stranded on 199.
