LONDON // Bolton Wanderers moved off the bottom of the Premier League and out of the relegation zone, beating Manchester City 2-0 on Sunday. A poor game was settled by two late goals, the first a close-range effort from Ricardo Gardner and the second an own goal from City defender Richard Dunne. Bolton climbed above Newcastle United, who play Aston Villa tonight, and Tottenham Hotspur who were 2-1 winners against Liverpool on Saturday.
West Bromwich Albion drop into the bottom three. City stay 10th despite a sequence of just one win in six league games. "I'm disappointed because you have to stand up to the challenge at Bolton," the City manager Mark Hughes told the BBC. "We know we can do a lot better than we showed today but we weren't allowed to play our normal game." *Reuters

Day 3, Dubai Test: At a glance
Moment of the day Lahiru Gamage, the Sri Lanka pace bowler, has had to play a lot of cricket to earn a shot at the top level. The 29-year-old debutant first played a first-class game 11 years ago. His first Test wicket was one to savour, bowling Pakistan opener Shan Masood through the gate. It set the rot in motion for Pakistan’s batting.
Stat of the day – 73 Haris Sohail took 73 balls to hit a boundary. Which is a peculiar quirk, given the aggressive intent he showed from the off. Pakistan’s batsmen were implored to attack Rangana Herath after their implosion against his left-arm spin in Abu Dhabi. Haris did his best to oblige, smacking the second ball he faced for a huge straight six.
The verdict One year ago, when Pakistan played their first day-night Test at this ground, they held a 222-run lead over West Indies on first innings. The away side still pushed their hosts relatively close on the final night. With the opposite almost exactly the case this time around, Pakistan still have to hope they can salvage a win from somewhere.
