Pakistan's Team Top order didn't performed well in the first innings of the test match. Debutante Imam ul Haq didnt performed to the expectations.

All rounder and 2nd debutante Fahim Ashraf remained the top scorer of the innings and made 83 runs of 170 balls. The leg spinner Shahdab Khan scored fifty with bat and due to these innings Pakistan managed to score 310 runs and declared innings.

Start of Ireland innings was nor promising as 4 of the top order players got out on just 7 runs just Kevin O'Brien and tail ender Wilson showed some resistance against the Pakistani bowlers and scored 40 and 33 Runs respectively. Muhammad Abbas took 4 Wickets , Shahdab Khan took 3 and Muhammad Amir took 2 wickets and due to Pakistan's exceptional bowling Ireland got all out on just 130 runs in first innings and Pakistan Captain Sarfarz Ahmed forced follow on Ireland. Now in 2nd innings Ireland is playing well and they made 64 runs without any loss of wickets. Ireland is still trialing by 116 runs and Ed Joyce and WTS Porterfield are on the crease with the scores of 39 and 23 respectively.
