Misbah and Younis redeem Pak



Pakistan saved the day with 369/5. Younis Khan played well for his 80 and Misbah for his 54 not out.

Ishant Sharma impressed in his spell in which he took the wicket of Faisal Iqbal. All five Indian bowlers took a wicket each.

Now the match seems to be heading for a draw. There is no glory for Pak, as India leads 1-0 in the series.

In the other match in SL, Sangakara, who is ranked No 1 in ICC rankings, got out cheaply. A huge wicket for England ! But Vandort scored his half century to redeem SL. SL at stumps are 105/2.

England had earlier cruised to 351, thanks to Cook scoring 81 along witn Vaughan's brilliant & stylish 87. Prior excelled with the bat scoring 79. Paul Collingwood scored 52 and England reached a respectable 351. Still I feel England has the edge, as they had taken Sangakara !
