- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR24.5 timely breakthrough there for Sri Lanka, Gambhir chips down the track tries to launch him over the off side but he checks his shot and Kandamby takes it easily at long-off 126/23.4 not the best decision unfortunately but Tendulkar has to go, the ball pitches marginally outside the leg stump and straightens and hits him fairly high on the pad as he tries to work it to the on side, Kumar Dharmasena thinks about it for a while before raising the finger, this is Dharmasena's first decision in ODIs 13/127.3 a communication breakdown there, Raina nudges it down to fine leg and charges out for the second run, Yuvraj is interested only in the single but when he turns around his partner is already halfway down the pitch, it's too late for Raina to get back 137/337.6 Yuvraj gives it a away and a good bowling change by Sri Lanka, he makes room to loft him for six down the ground but the ball travels off the splice of the bat and as a result doesn't get the desired elevation, Murali comes forward from long-on and takes it comfortably 181/4Extras17 (lb 8, nb 1, w 8)TOTAL247/4 (48.1 Overs, RR: 5.12)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Sachin Tendulkar, 3.4 ov), 2-126 (Gautam Gambhir, 24.5 ov), 3-137 (Suresh Raina, 27.3 ov), 4-181 (Yuvraj Singh, 37.6 ov)
