After a high-scoring draw in the first Test, both teams will be eager for a win to clinch the Test series in Lahore.Pakistan captain Younus Khan fears Sri Lanka will come out fighting to give their captain Mahela Jayawardene a winning farewell in the second Test.

The 31-year-old touring captain steps down from captaincy after this match — a factor Younus said would motivate the tourists to lift their game. “We are aware of it and this being Mahela’s last Test, he and his team may come down hard on us. But we will focus on our strength and our planning,” said Younus on Saturday.
