Sir Vivian Richards holds the record of reaching the landmark in the least number of innings (206).Sri Lanka bundle out Pakistan for 218 on Day 2 of 1st TestSri Lanka had won the toss and elected to bat first against Pakistan in the first Test of their two-match series. While they managed to post a total of 222 on the board in their first innings, their bowlers helped them power their way back into the contest.The Sri Lankan bowlers did an exceptional job of bowling Pakistan out for 218, although it could have been for much lesser if not for Babar Azam's valiant knock.Prabath Jayasuriya was the pick of the bowlers for the hosts. The left-arm spinner picked up a stunning fifer and finished with figures of 5/82.Babar Azam steadied the ship for his side with his knock of 119. However, no other batter was able to make a significant impact in the innings and they ultimately fell four runs short of Sri Lanka's total.
