Commentary

The series has ended at 1-1! Both the captains pose with the cup, with Karunaratne looking slightly happier of the two. Pakistan will be going to the Netherlands for an ODI series. That's it from us today, I am Ovaise Shariff signing off on behalf of my co-commentators Ayan Chatterjee and Ajay Ahire alongside scorer/analyst Dushyant!! Join us for all action from other games across the globe. Until then, It's goodbye! Stay Safe!

Dimuth Karunaratne, Sri Lankan Skipper: "My back is painful, will get an MRI tomorrow, let's see what it comes about. Someone had to put their hands up. Chandi and Mathews batted well. It was important for me to get the partnership with Silva and Chandimal and glad that we could do that. I think we as a team are playing well. In patches, we have done badly, but as a whole, we have done well. I think the comebacks from us in this home series against Australia and Sri Lanka has been amazing.

I played with Prabath in the NSL series, and I saw the potential in him and wanted him on the side I am glad he did well under the pressure.

About Angelo what can I say? Playing 100 Tests is no mean feet starting as an all-rounder he has been my guide buddy and all my problems have been solved by him. Angelo has always been a guide and a mentor to me. I wish him many more successes in the future."

Babar Azam(Pakistan Skipper): "Definitely a tough game for us. Batting was not up to the mark for us and Jayasuriya bowled really so credit goes to him and their bowlers. Dhananjaya's and Dimuth's innings took the game away from us. We played well in the first match and we got lots of positives from the series."

Prabath Jayasuriya, Player of the Series: "I have worked hard and was patient to get the rewards. The surface was not easy, but we stuck to the basics and bowling in partnerships and got the reward in the end. It was not turning square. I waited for my time and got loads of support from family, and friends and they motivated me to do well in Tests. Great to live the dream. "

Dhananjaya de Silva(Player of the Match): "I got the hundred after 17 innings and was really happy with the effort. The boys supported me really well. I was in good touch but failed to get the big runs but got the runs in this game. It's a good challenge for me to bat in difficult situations. Captaincy is a good challenge and it also requires hard work."

Time for the post-match presentation ceremony.
