Watch: Video Claims Pakistan Captain Babar Azam's 'Wonder Boundary' vs Sri Lanka Was No Fluke

Pakistan enjoyed a good day in the field against Sri Lanka on the third day of the second Test in Colombo. Opener Abdullah Shafique's maiden double century and an unbeaten 132 by Agha Salman put Pakistan in the box seat. The tourists reached 563-5 at stumps, leading Sri Lanka by 397 runs in their first innings at Colombo's Sinhalese Sports Club. Salman and concussion substitute Mohammad Rizwan, on 37, were batting in an unbeaten stand of 95 after Shafique's departure on 201.

Pakistan captain Babar Azam added 11 to his overnight 28 before being trapped lbw, with the decision upheld by the third umpire after review. It was the sixth time Azam had been dismissed in Test cricket by Jayasuriya, who bowled unchanged from one end in the first session.

However, Babar also played a wonder shot that has taken the internet by storm. During his innings, Babar hit a boundary off Asitha Fernando, that was cheeky to say the least. Azam looked in twio minds as he flicked to steer the ball through the slips. While many in social media, though it was a fluke, some posted videos that Azam practised the shot during practice.

Babar Azam played that shot intentionally and guided it for four. Root and Williamson play it too! Babar has mastered it and can play it whenever he wants toCommentators don't follow Babar in the nets and it shows, they don't know a thing #SLvPAK https://t.co/4iyVqnmGgH pic.twitter.com/5JRkMb1W5n

Talking about the game, Salman played attacking cricket to reinforce Pakistan's new aggressive style in this series and reached his second Test ton with a boundary.

Shafique led the mammoth reply in response to Sri Lanka's 166 as he put on three century stands including a 124-run sixth-wicket partnership with Salman.
