Sri Lanka vs Pakistan, Second Test, Day 2 Live Updates And Live Score: Sri Lanka’s spinners struck three times in the second session on day two against Pakistan, including taking the scalp of skipper Babar Azam, to leave the tourists reeling on Monday. Pakistan, who lead the two-match Test series 1-0, were 111 for four at tea in response to Sri Lanka’s first-innings 378 and still trail by 267 runs in Galle. Fawad Alam, on 18, and Agha Salman, on 13, were batting at the break. Left-arm spinner Prabath Jayasuriya bowled Azam for 16 on a turning delivery that got the edge of the dangerman’s bat to crash onto the stumps. Imam-ul-Haq attempted to rebuild the innings with Mohammad Rizwan but Dhananjaya de Silva broke through with his off-spin to send back Imam on 32. De Silva is standing in as captain in place of Dimuth Karunaratne, who did not take the field in the Pakistan innings because of back pain. (LIVE SCORECARD)
