Pakistan slip to 118-5 at end of day three against Sri Lanka

Two more Pakistan wickets fall before stumps

Pakistan have scored 118-5 at the close of play on day three of the first Test against Sri Lanka.

After bowling Sri Lanka out for 300 earlier in the day, they have struggled to find a foothold on their innings.

Younis Khan and Misbah-ul-Haq brought some stability to Pakistan after a poor start, before Khan fell for 47 and Misbah-ul-Haq followed shortly after when he was caught by Kumar Sangakkara for 20.

The new partnership of Asad Shafiq (14*) and Sarfraz Ahmed (15*) will continue at the crease tomorrow.
