Wednesday, 11 October 2017 07:00

Sri Lanka have beaten Pakistan to win the overall Test series.

The visitors won the second Test by 68 runs yesterday, 10 October, to condemn Pakistan to a first home series defeat since moving their home games to the United Arab Emirates.

Sri Lanka, who had not won an away series against Pakistan since 2000, won the first Test in Abu Dhabi by 21 runs.

Pakistan have not played a Test series on home soil since gunmen attacked the Sri Lanka team bus in Lahore in 2009.

The sides are due to play a Twenty20 match in the city, subject to security.
