Dimuth shines, SL square series with win: 2nd Test, Day 5 (PSS)

Veteran Kumar Sangakkara made a golden pair but Sri Lanka won the 2nd Test by seven wickets after Dimuth Karunaratne stroked his sixth Test half-century against Pakistan.

Sri Lanka needed 153 to win and went on the attack after play was delayed due to a wet outfield.

Sri Lanka 315 (Silva 80, Mathews 77, Yasir 6-96) and 153 for 3 (Karunaratne 50, Mathews 43*) beat Pakistan 138 (Hafeez 42, Kaushal 5-42, Prasad 3-43) and 329 (Azhar 117, Shehzad 69, Prasad 4-92, Chameera 3-53) by 7 wickets.
