606: DEBATE
|
It could had been even worse when the tourists, beaten 2-0 in the preceding Test series, slipped to 134-8 before tail-enders Gul and Mohammad Aamir (23) boosted the total with a rousing ninth-wicket stand of 62.
The pair took the total to 196-8 when both batsmen fell in the space of two deliveries to hand Sri Lanka the lead in the five-match series.
Earlier, Sri Lanka recovered from their own top order failure to post a competitive total.
All-rounder Mathews led the late revival, with the last four Sri Lankan wickets adding 101 valuable runs before the 50 overs ran out.
Spinner Muttiah Muralitharan, who missed the Test series with a knee injury, marked his return with an aggressive 32 off 15 balls that included four boundaries and a six.
The second game of the series will be played at the same venue on Saturday.
