Pakistan was all out at 117 runs total in their second innings on the fourth day of the Galle Test beaten by Sri Lanka by 50 runs in the first Test on Tuesday. Sri Lankan bowlers were the architects of a surprising turnaround in fortunes of the rival teams on fourth day. The home side bowlers jolted Pakistan in the beginning today as the visitors lost quick wickets and no pair of the batsmen settled for a useful partnership to score 97 runs that were needed for the victory. Opener Salman Butt was the top scorer of the second Pakistani innings with 28 runs. Sri Lankan bowlers snatched a certain victory from the visitor. Herath was the most successful bowler of the home team with 3 wickets for 15 runs. Tushara and Ajantha Mendis grabbed two wickets each.
