- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.4 top-edged into his helmet... and taken at point! All the bigging up of Gunathilaka has only succeeded in getting him out, Joseph's persistence with the short ball paying off. Skidded on to him as he pulled, deflecting up for a simple catch. Pressure on SL now, having lost their form man 68/114.3 bowled 'im! The steadfast Karunaratne tries to hoy this into next week, and loses his leg stump...! Mohammed's line and length gives nothing away, and the attempted slog-sweep undoes Sri Lank's captain. Double trouble 70/220.3 traps him in front! That looked plumb, beating the inside edge and hitting him bang in front of middle. Nissanka decides against reviewing and SL lose a third 101/324.3 he's cleaned another Sri Lankan up. Quicker through the air and boy did that skid on! Chandimal tried to jab it through the legside again, but it finds the gap and skids right through, clattering the stumps. Sri Lanka continue to lose wickets and West Indies gain a stranglehold on this innings. 116/430.3 Hosein keeps doing the business! Another flipper that darts through, this time piercing the defences of Shanaka. It's the same formula, personalised for each successive Sri Lankan batsman, and it's producing results. 143/531.5 I suspect that's gone. He's run-out! Sri Lanka are imploding here. Went for a risky single to mid-off, and the direct hit from Pooran leaves him well short. Perera goes. 151/6Extras7 (lb 2, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL274/6 (50 Overs, RR: 5.48)Fall of wickets: 1-68 (Danushka Gunathilaka, 13.4 ov), 2-70 (Dimuth Karunaratne, 14.3 ov), 3-101 (Pathum Nissanka, 20.3 ov), 4-116 (Dinesh Chandimal, 24.3 ov), 5-143 (Dasun Shanaka, 30.3 ov), 6-151 (Thisara Perera, 31.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.6 gone right through his defences! Goes full and while there wasn't much discernible swing, he ends up playing down the wrong line. The ball clatters into off stump and Sri Lanka have an enormous breakthrough here 24/131.1 Thisara strikes first ball! Misbegotten slog from Hope, and he's chipped a cutter straight to long-on running in! Looking to skip down and take the bowler on, but the ball came off the toe of the bat as it turned in his hands. Slow walk off from Shai, who knows he should have been looking to stick around until the end of this chase 148/39.3 and the wicket falls right after! It's a googly that deceives Mohammed all ends up. He went for an expansive drive and it goes right through the gate 39/246.1 he's gone, what a spectacular catch that was! Lakmal continues to send down full tosses like they're going out of fashion but Bravo can't quite get a hold of it properly. Karunaratne at extra cover puts in a dive, and plucks that ball out of the air. DO SL still have hope? 249/534.3 flat on the stumps, Pooran sweeps and misses - given! SL are celebrating but Pooran will review, the one thing that could save him was the angle. No bat involved, from the looks of it... and no reprieve, hitting middle and leg, according to Hawk-Eye!
