Default 1st Test Pak vs SL

Sri Lanka 204 (Mathews 91, Junaid 5-58) and 480/5 dec (Mathews 157*) Pakistan383 (Younis 136, Misbah 135) and 158/2 (Hafeez 80*, Shehzad 55)
Result Match is drawn.
Mohammad Hafeez made the most of his good batting form, and a benign pitch, to score a fluent half-century that helped Pakistan earn a comfortable draw in Abu Dhabi after being set a target of 302 from 67 overs. His 101-run stand with Ahmed Shehzad, in 31 overs, effectively closed the door on Sri Lanka after Suranga Lakmal had provided an early breakthrough. Hafeez was unbeaten on 80 when the teams decided to shake hands, right at the start of the mandatory overs.
Angelo Mathews was declared as the man of the match for his excellent performance in both innings as he scored 91 and 157 in 1st and 2nd innings respectively.
