- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR45.1 gone! Swann removes Jayawardene with an arm ball that rushes straight on, the batsman running past it to be easily stumped by Kieswetter. What a fantastic knock it was from him, he set a new personal best of 144 and has guided his team into a great position after they had been looking decidedly wobbly 271/44.3 Tip and run from Dilshan, and that's going to be out! Crazy run, straight to Broad at mid-on, who steadies himself and under-arms a diving shy onto the non-striker's stumps 15/19.1 ridiculous! That is an absolute carbon-copy of the Dilshan dismissal! Only this time, Anderson is the fielder off Broad's bowling, rather than the other way round, and Billy Bowden didn't need the benefit of a replay to give it. Tucked to mid-on, a crazy call, a good pick-up, a diving shy 45/238.2 gone this time! Swann strikes and it's wonderful bowling. Tossed up, bit of drift, beating Sangakkara in the flight as he advanced before spinning past the edge to allow Kieswetter to whip the bails off 204/348.5 well, the short ball had been troubling Kulasekara and now it's dismissed him: a top-edged pull loops out to Pietersen, running in from the midwicket boundary, and Sri Lanka lose their fifth wicket 296/5Extras16 (lb 5, w 11)TOTAL309/5 (50 Overs, RR: 6.18)Fall of wickets: 1-15 (Tillakaratne Dilshan, 4.3 ov), 2-45 (Dinesh Chandimal, 9.1 ov), 3-204 (Kumar Sangakkara, 38.2 ov), 4-271 (Mahela Jayawardene, 45.1 ov), 5-296 (Nuwan Kulasekara, 48.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR17.4 gone! Cook skips out of his crease and aims an inside-out drive over extra cover, but only gets as far as Mathews, jogging in from the cover boundary. He was scoring quite freely, but the steadily rising required rate has tempted him into an injudiciously aggressive shot 85/210.2 gone! Kieswetter can't believe it but Sri Lanka are thrilled! Short ball was pulled hard and flat but straight to fine leg who came in nicely and took a low catch 53/127.5 forget Malinga, Lakmal steams to the crease and fires in an absolutely perfect inswinging yorker at high pace! Trott was in, but there's nothing he could do about this, he jammed the bat down but the ball was already through him. Great follow-up after the bouncer from the previous delivery 144/422.6 brilliant catch! Pietersen came down the track and lifted the ball towards wide long-on, Malinga sprinted to his right and dived, sliding along the turf but managing to keep both hands on the ball. That wicket will really lift Sri Lanka, Pietersen was starting to look really dangerous 113/336.3 Randiv strikes and that could seal the match! Another player out stumped but Morgan could have got back. It was a top delivery, turning and bouncing past Morgan's attempted drive as he leapt down the track, Sangakkara almost fluffed the take as it reared up towards his neck, Morgan had given up though and Sangakkara had time to steady the take and take off the bails 201/543.5 a slower ball is lapped straight to Lakmal at short fine leg, and that is probably the end for England. It was a slower ball from Kulasekara, and Bell went right across to off to get himself in a good position, but there was no pace to work with and the connection was only good enough to send the ball down the fielder's throat. He accepted the gift with a smile, and Sri Lanka are very close to drawing level in the series 232/838.3 well that was coming! Bresnan tries to break the shackles with an almighty swipe, top-edges and it flies out to deep midwicket who holds a good catch on the boundary edge 204/639.2 this is all ending quickly! Another googly that Broad stretches, gropes at, misses, overbalances and ends up stumped. Top bowling and it ends a pretty unhappy game for Broad 206/744.2 unplayable! Anderson must surely have been expecting the yorker, but there's not much he could do about this. Leg stump is pegged back, and England are nine down now 233/945.5 length ball on off stump, Dernbach clears the left leg and smears it straight to long-off, that's the game! 240/10Extras7 (lb 1, w 6)TOTAL240 all out (45.5 Overs, RR: 5.23)Fall of wickets: 1-53 (Craig Kieswetter, 10.2 ov), 2-85 (Alastair Cook, 17.4 ov), 3-113 (Kevin Pietersen, 22.6 ov), 4-144 (Jonathan Trott, 27.5 ov), 5-201 (Eoin Morgan, 36.3 ov), 6-204 (Tim Bresnan, 38.3 ov), 7-206 (Stuart Broad, 39.2 ov), 8-232 (Ian Bell, 43.5 ov), 9-233 (James Anderson, 44.2 ov), 10-240 (Jade Dernbach, 45.5 ov)
