Drinks - Pakistan will be happy with their effort in the first half of this session with the only blip in their performance being the stumping of Imam-ul-Haq. Sri Lanka will be hoping the wicket will open the flood gates and they can run through this batting lineup. They have bowled much better line and length in this session and will be hoping it translates to wickets.
