Sports TV's second-day highlights give Pakistan's debutant Arafat Minhas room to make his mark: a boundary checked and confirmed as six, then a half-century in his first Test innings. But the day's sharpest contrast belongs to Saud Shakeel and Asitha Fernando, with a batting milestone slipping away just as a bowling one arrives.

Shakeel is caught behind for 93 after lunch, becoming Fernando's hundredth Test wicket. "Saud Shakeel, he was poised for a hundred, but becomes the hundredth wicket of Asitha Fernando," the commentator says. The replay catches a moment that means very different things to the batter walking off and the bowler celebrating.

The full-day package has drawn about 852,000 views in its first fifteen hours, already far beyond Sports TV's usual first-day audience for regular videos. Its separate session highlights and live coverage are also drawing unusually large audiences, making this more than an isolated hit.

On the field, Minhas's contribution helps Pakistan build toward a declaration before Mohammad Abbas and Saqib remove Sri Lankan batters early in the reply. Then comes a reprieve for Kamindu Mendis: Pakistan review an LBW decision, but the umpire's call on impact leaves him at the crease.

That review has its own fast-starting Short on Sports TV. The channel has also pulled out Minhas's boundary hitting and Fernando's pace bowling into individual clips, while viewers on the full highlights pick out Abbas's swing and Kamindu's straight drives.
