Pakistan vs Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI at Abu Dhabi, , Oct 16 2017 - Match Result

11:21pm And that's it from us today. Thanks for joining. We hope you enjoyed it. See you for the next one.

Sarfraz Ahmed: [responding to Ramiz Raja's question about his temper] The match position becomes this way sometimes and the temper comes out. The boys understand it and I always apologise to them later. (laughs) Our batting collapsed but the way they batted after that on a difficult pitch was brilliant. Can't praise the bowlers enough for defending this 220. Babar is young and he will adjust to Tests. He likes to play his shots so he enjoys success in ODIs. He'll adapt to Tests I'm confident of it. The pitch kept getting slower and slower, so batting wasn't easy and that's why we chose to bat. We're trying to give confidence to the boys, like to Shadab today. If we trust the youngsters, they give us good performances.

Upul Tharanga: Bowlers were really good today. It was a tough wicket. If you hung in there, it got better and better. Thirimanne's wicket was crucial. The seam bowlers bowled especially well, and Akila and Vandersay did well. Disappointed to lose. Vandersay batted well too, but when you're 90 for 7, it's a tough task. It was good to carry the bat, but disappointed with the result

Shadab Khan: I'm grateful to Allah and the good wishes of my parents. Got opportunity with the bat and I thought it'd be my first and last one and approached it like that. The coach told us to bat out the full 50 overs and that's what we did. The kind of bowling line-up we have, we knew we could defend this.

Shadab Khan is the Man of the Match.

10:58pm Oh Sarfraz. Didn't have a very good day, this man. But he was great during the middle overs with his bowling changes, and Pakistan have done it. They've risen from 79 for 5, then 101 for 6, and completed a 32-run win. Upul Tharanga becomes the first Sri Lankan to carry his bat in ODIs. He had the complete opposite day to his counterpart. Can't count how many chances he had today, but unfortunately for him, the pattern holds true for the match result as well. Another loss for him as captain. Only four out of 22 batsmen made it past 20 in this match. And therein lies the value of Babar Azam's century. His fifth consecutive one in the UAE. A superb effort. Backed up by Shadab who got an unbeaten half-century; then followed it up with three wickets to rip through Sri Lanka's middle order. Which one of them will be Man of the Match?

Hasan swiftly walks back to his mark. Trailing him is Sarfraz who cannot believe he has bowled it short and wide with three fielders deep on the leg side

Hasan Ali, around the wicket

Wajid Jawaid : "I wonder if this will be the lowest match total to include 2 individual centuries" --- Second-lowest at the moment says stats man Bharat Seervi.
