Tughral: "I beg to differ from Taha.A positive start is what Pakistan and Khurram needed.SL will be worried about the run rate no doubt.He did get out blocking against Herath(not attacking) anyway but atleast he got Pakistan to 47 before that.What would have been the state and mood in Pakistan's dressing room if the scorecard at lunch would have read 9 overs Pak 10/1. Every player should play as he knows."

"Will SL move to "Chandimal" or keep Dickwella fr NZ series... I think Chandi is the best option since he's having good time in England. He's proved again he's the best in fast and bouncy pitches... " With Mahela retiring, Chandimal may not necessarily have to keep wicket to get back into the team...

Match is about to resume in 5 minutes after lunch

Asif Raza: "In last test, Pakistan made 47th run at 17.3 overs with 2 wickets down and in second innings they reached this milestone at 33.1 over with losing 3 wickets. It is good to see that today they have started positively and are only 1 down at 47. It feels like progress."

usama: "I can't count the no. of test Pakistan have given away by giving too many runs to last few wickets, sydney test, cape town test last year, that famous lord's test in 2010 allowing Broad 169 after england were 47/5"
