GALLE: Sri Lanka have set 510-run target to Pakistan after declaring the second innings at 137 runs for five wickets on the third day of the first Test match against Sri Lanka here on Sunday.

Earlier, Pakistan batting completely collapsed as the team only made 100 runs and faced follow-on.

Top scorers from Pakistan were Younis Khan (29), Muhammad Ayub (25) and Captain Muhammad Hafeez (20).

From Sri Lankan side Randiv took 4 wickets while Herath grabbed 3.

Sri Lanka spinners Rangana Herath and Suraj Randiv bowled Pakistan out for 100 at lunch.

Sri Lanka, who scored 472 in their first innings, did not enforce the follow-on and decided to bat a second time.

Pakistan's last five wickets lasted just a session as Herath and Randiv ran through the bottom order.

Herath made the first breakthrough of the day by trapping Younis Khan lbw for 29. Younis was clearly unhappy with the decision and television replays later showed him getting an inside edge onto the pads. SAMAA/ AGENCIES
