Pakistan vs Sri Lanka 2019

Misbah shed light on the predicament of not having Fakhar, Shadab and Hasan firing on all cylinders which he felt impacted team's performance in 2019

He had vaulted into the elite list for the first time following his hundred on the final day of Rawalpindi Test.

"If we don’t play our tests at home then we will be disadvantaged. We can’t deprive our players of cricket at home grounds.”

"It's a great occasion for happiness for all of us that we won the series"

Pakistan earlier declared their second innings at lunch on 555 for three after Azhar returned to form with 118 and Babar Azam struck 100 not out

Day three witnessed a stark contrast from what transpired on the day one where Pakistan were bundled out for 191.

The two opening batters struck incredible tons following which skipper Azhar Ali extended Pakistan's dominance with a fine half-century

The match hangs more or less in balance with both teams vying for a series win on a pitch that has thus far looked to considerably assist bowlers.

Pakistan lost their last six wickets for just 24 runs in their paltry total of 191.
