    13.1 It's a huge mix up in the middle! And Mendis might be gone here. Yes he is! Mendis cuts this wide of backward point and goes for the single, it's a misfield. But there's a bit if yes, no, yes before he turns back. There's a despairing dive at the end but the direct hit does the trick. 129/5
    4.2 And Hasaranga has done the trick! Was this really necessary from Gunathilaka? It's short on the stumps, he makes room and tries to flat bat this over extra cover, but cannot get the connection. And Thisara is the fielder there who tumbles as he completes the catch. 63/1
    4.3 And he's gone first ball! It's the googly, and Dunk tries to go across the line over midwicket, but he gets a thick outside edge that loops up to short third man for an easy catch. 63/2
    6.2 Oh dear, what's happened there? Mix-up in the middle and we might have a wicket here. And he's gone! This is knocked towards midwicket, and they set off for the run. Easy single but Hafeez calls for two and is turned back. The throw is to the non-striker's end, but Hasaranga thinks on his feet and instantly chucks this to the keeper to catch Hafeez short. 84/3
    10.4 Rajapaksa gets more on this, but it's a long long boundary. He goes for the slog sweep and there's that man again, Wanindu, at deep midwicket gleefully completing the catch. 113/4
    17.6 Length ball and Patel gets right under this, but that's all he does. It goes high and straight to long-on who comes in from the boundary to complete an easy take. 158/8
    13.6 What a catch! This is top edged high over Wanindu at short cover who's running back and takes a fantastic diving catch as the ball falls over his shoulder. 133/6
    15.5 Bowled him! Tharanga got away with the cut earlier in the over, but this time he tries to stay back to a flat length ball again, but it's towards middle and leg this and he can't get his bat down in time. Stumps well and truly disturbed. 143/7
    18.5 And that should be the game. Udana looks to loft this length ball straight over the bowler. But it's full and he gets under it but doesn't get the distance. Malik at long on completes a comfortable take. 168/9
