The time Azhar Ali, Shan Masood, Asad Shafiq took over the mantle, the batting looked solid and with the veterans Hafeez, Younis Khan and Mishbah providing the much required support, Pakistan has got good batting display.
Yasir Shah in his only 10th match has already claimed 109 wickets and he is a good find for Pakistan. With Pakistan having faster bowlers at their peril, Pakistan can only climb on bowling front too..
And all these plus the able support of wicketkeeper batsmen Sarfaraz, Pakistan has been elevated to the 3rd rank.
It was much disappointment to see Sri Lanka slip in this series. Sri Lanka, like India, normally performs very well in their home conditions. But, when Herath sucks, Sri Lanka gets clueless and this was very much evident in this Test series.
Sri Lanka, looked solid on the batting front, but, it is the bowling that has caused ripples in the series.
