    10.6 runout, good length on the off stump, defended to cover, Chibabha calls for the single but sends Masakdza back only after he is almost halfway down the pitch, Tharanga at cover fields well and throws down the stumps at the non-strikers end with an under-arm flick to find Masakdza short of his ground 40/2

    21.1 gone!! Maharoof has been gifted a wicket here, that was pitched full on middle and off, Chibhabha came down the track and tried to loft it over mid on, got the leading edge and Kulasekara at mid on ran back a few steps to take a well judged catch. There was no need for that shot but Chibhabha lost his concentration there! 83/3

    27.2 gone! bowled flat and quick on middle and leg from round the wicket, pitches on a good length and straightens, Chigumbura comes forward to defend but makes no contact with the bat, struck low on the pads, Murali goes up, and the umpire raises his finger. That would have gone on to hit middle and leg 124/5

    27.6 another one! Zimbabwe losing it here! that was flighted outside off from round the wicket, Maruma tries to turn that away in the direction of short-fine leg, hits it straight to Kapugedara stationed at backward short leg exactly for that shot!

    28.6 stumped,that was bowled on a good length outside off, went the other way, Price didn't pick that one and left him at just the last moment as he came forward to defend, Sangakkara collects cleanly and clips off the bails to find the batsman with his right foot in the air, the appeal is referred and Price is rightly given out! 125/8
