    12.5 hacked to mid-off! Nissanka again chases a wide ball outside off, and this time falls. It had been a quiet over so far, and Nissanka went slashing at this short-of-a-length ball which was wide of off. But there was no foot movement from him, as he only reached out and ended up getting the ball off the toe end of the bat to mid-off, where Hales took it with a reverse cup 101/2
    3.1 Mendis top edges a sweep and Zahoor strikes first ball. Seam up, on the fuller side of length, landed around leg and may have straightened a bit. Mendis, who had pre-meditated, was on one knee and wanted to go square. Couldn't do it against the rising ball. Dolly for Udana at short fine leg, who tracked back but had ample time to get under it 20/1
    16.4 finds mid-on! The line and length are very similar to what they were previous ball, when Avishka pulled for four down the ground. He repeats the shot this ball too, only that the line was slightly closer to off. Pretorius keeps bowling the cutters, and this one gives him a wicket, as Avishka falls 126/4
    14.1 ohh, another animated appeal for lbw, and turned down again! This was angled in at good pace, and bowled from wide of the crease. And, and... Galle review! It is a fair delivery, which landed full on middle and off, and went on with the angle from around the wicket. Rossouw went for the heave to the leg side, but missed, with the ball passing his inside edge. There is no bat involved, as his bat is almost outside off. And replays confirm that the ball woukd have hit the middle of leg stump. So Galle get the decision overturned 103/3
    18.6 taken at short third off a full toss! The ball came on to his chest height, as he dropped on the ground while taking the ball. Asalanka got another full toss, although this was higher than the previous ball. The ball ended around off, and he went punching at it, only to get it off the outside half of the bat to the fielder behind the wicket 162/5
    19.3 clipped to long leg! Udana angles this in from around the wicket, with the ball being much fuller. The ball finishes on middle, and is flicked hard by Dhananjaya. But Liyanage does well to go low to his right and grab the ball 172/6
    19.5 given out after just half an appeal for lbw! Allen walks back without even thinking of a review. The ball was on a fullish length on middle and off, with the seam tilted to fine leg. Allen was deep in his crease, and with his front leg out of the way. He went heaving across the line, but seemed to have been beaten by the lack of pace. The ball seemingly struck him on middle, and it was thus given out 173/7

    7.1 Lack of pace does the trick for DDS. Dickwella danced down and drove way too far in front. Done in flight. He tried to go over cover, was close to the pitch in terms of length but not line. He had to reach out, and toed it straight up in backward point's direction. Good innings from the skip though 66/1

    14.6 got him! Allen gets Hales too! A dismissal very similar to that of Seifert. Allen angled this in, and bowled on a length on middle and leg. The ball just about straightened away and hit middle stump, with Hales attempting to slog sweep it. But he played early, and was foxed by the slightly shorter length ideal for that shot 127/3
    12.6 bowled him! Allen strikes to pull it back for Jaffna. He angled this in, and bowled on a length on middle and off. The ball turned away while also bouncing nicely enough to beat Seifert, who attempt to slog sweep against the turn. But he missed, and was beaten by the ball moving away from him, as his off stump was hit 110/2
    17.2 taken at backward point! The fielder went low to his right, and grabbed a crucial catch as he fell forward. Asitha bowled a full toss this time, angling the ball across and getting it to finish on off. Rajapaksa opened the face of the bat looking to slice it away, but ended up getting it off the outside half of the bat to fall to a full toss 145/4
    19.3 slashed to point! Ohh, a late twist in the dying stages of the game. Asitha bowled a slower ball on the shorter side of a length, and got it to climb on top of off. Liyanage went hacking, but was beaten by the extra bounce, as he ended up finding the man at point 173/5
