    11.2 gets the breakthrough! And a big "come on boys" roar from Taskin. Fullish, on off. Minimal footwork as he tries to muscle it over midwicket. Inside edge, crashes into the stumps, and Bangladesh break the partnership after 82 runs 82/1
    39.2 stunning catch! And reward for Shoriful, he's bowled smart this spell. Good length, on off, not full enough for the drive, but Perera goes for it nonetheless. Slices the drive, and Mahmudullah at mid off has to run backwards, following the ball from over his shoulder, and dives to take a catch. A wonderful century comes to an end 216/4
    11.6 and Taskin is on fire! This time, the "come on boys" is even louder. Good length ball outside off and jagging in. Nissanka looks to punch through the covers, but it takes the edge. Keeper moves to his right and pockets that. Duck for Pathum and Bangladesh have come roaring back on the back of this Taskin over 82/2
    25.2 caught at mid-off. Third wicket for Taskin, the bowling change works. Not a shot Mendis will want to look at on replays. Ugly slog across the line to a back of length ball on off stump, gets it off the toe end and it lobs gently to the fielder. Didn't move his feet at all, and was the wrong choice of shot for that length and line in any case 151/3

    42.3 direct hit at the striker's end! And Dickwella is short of his crease. DDS took half a step down, and pushed that to midwicket as it was on a good length on middle. The batters went for a risky run, but Shoriful shattered the stumps with a bang 231/5
    48.2 taken at long-on, as Mehidy moves to his left. Taskin went full on off, as Hasaranga swung his bat in search of a late flourish. But that came off the bottom of the bat and couldn't find the distance. Taskin has four now, first time since 2017 that he has taken as many in an ODI. 266/6

    9.3 slower delivery that the bowler thinks he's nicked behind and the umpire agrees. But Tamim going for the review immediately. This was full, almost yorker length going past him in the channel. Very close to bat, but bat also hit ground when ball was passing, so the noise could be from that. Ooh this is touch and go. The bat is hitting the ground right at the moment when the ball's passing the edge! Is there enough evidence to over-turn the on-field decision? I don't think so. The ball's very close to the bat too. I'd say this was out. And the third umpire concurs, so Chameera has a third wicket. Tamim is stunned. He's muttering animatedly as he walks off. 28/3
    1.1 caught at slip. Success for Chameera with his first ball. He angled this well across Naim, and the ball ended up well wide of off, but Naim was drawn into driving at that with feet mostly static. Gets a healthy edge and slip takes a comfortable catch 2/1
    3.2 smart catch at square leg and a great short ball. Bent his back on this, and banged it in short, got it perfectly on target, rising up uncomfortably towards Shakib's throat. He's cramped for room too, and the attempted pull shot is almost a reflex. It's a very limp effort though and the ball lobs up. Square leg judges the height and times his jump to catch it to a nicety. Huge wicket 9/2
    23.2 caught at long-on! A memorable first ODI wicket to have. Mushfiqur danced down to this ball, as Mendis went full on middle. The batter never got the timing right, as the bat twisted in his hand. Not sure if that was required at this stage, with the required rate around eight an over and not many batters in form. But Bangladesh's highest run-getter of the series can't bail them out this time. 84/4
    31.4 goes for the reverse-sweep, and is taken at short third man. Top-edges it, as Mendis pitches it full on middle. They were in need of a boundary, but Mosaddek has thrown in away. It seemed to be a pre-meditated shot, as he knew the man was inside the circle at short third man. But he can't find the middle of the bat, as Bangladesh lose half the side. 125/5
    42.3 caught behind on the ramp. That is that and Sri Lanka have won by 97 runs. This was a slower ball, dug in short. Mahmudullah hasn't been reading the changes of pace that well, moved across to ramp it, was way too early into the shot and ended up getting a toe-end that Dickwella jumped up and caught. 189/10
    37.2 pocketed by short fine leg! Tosses it up, looks to sweep, but top-edges it. Hasaranga's first wicket of the evening 158/6
    38.4 there's number four! Short ball, outside off, and Mehidy wants to pull it. But the ball's rising, and he slices the shot. Pops up in the air, beaten by pace, and comfortably taken at midwicket. His first career four-for 162/7
    38.6 there's the five for! Comes around the wicket. Puts in the yorker, and the batter can't get his bat down in time. Stumps knocked back, the perfect ball to a lower-order batter 162/8
    41.6 stumped by a mile. He's actually caught behind first. Shoriful danced down the track, and Hasranga bowled the perfectly flighted googly to the left-hander. Dipped on him, and spun away, even as he swung his bat in a golf arc, got a thick edge that Dickwella snapped up, and broke the bails too for good effect with the batsman well out of his crease. 181/9
