CARDIFF, Wales (AP) Pakistan dismissed Sri Lanka for 236 in 49.2 overs on Monday to take control of the last Champions Trophy match in Group B with a semifinal spot at stake.
Put into bat, Sri Lanka started solidly before collapsing from 161-3 to 167-7 after 35 overs, unable to cope with left-arm quicks Junaid Khan and Mohammad Amir. Khan ended his 10 overs with 3-40, including two wicket maidens, and Amir took 2-53.
Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews (39 in 54 balls) and top-scorer Niroshan Dickwella (73 in 86) were among the wickets to fall in the disastrous spell at a rain-free Sophia Gardens.
