Galle, Sri Lanka: Pakistan's Younis Khan continued to frustrate Sri Lanka on Thursday as the tourists progressed to a solid 347-5 at lunch on the second day of the first test.
Khan, 133 overnight, moved to 171 off 315 balls with 15 fours and a six as Sri Lanka managed only one wicket in the morning session. Sarfraz Ahmed was the other not-out batsman at lunch, on 28.
Khan raised his 150 with a superb four through cover off fast bowler Shaminda Eranga, who later dropped a two-handed return catch on his follow-through which could have dismissed Khan on 156.
Here is the scoreboard at lunch
