- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR18.6 nice and full, Nissanka is trapped in front. He shuffles across for a reverse-scoop past short third man, but misses it and is struck on the pad in front of middle. Bhuvneshwar finishes his shift with the wicket of Nissanka. Fine innings from the opener 160/58.4 Gunathilaka goes again but perishes this time. Jadeja bowled this one a touch shorter and further away. Gunathilaka went for another slog sweep only to get a top edge this time. The ball went miles in the air towards long-on. V Iyer seemed to have misjudged it and had to put in the dive in the end to catch it 67/19.5 given lbw. Asalanka is having a chat with his partner and decides to review it. Was fuller on the stumps, Asalanka went for the sweep but missed and was struck in front of the stumps. There was no bat involved. The ball landed around middle and hit in front of middle and leg. And it would have gone on to hit middle and leg. Sri Lanka lose their second wicket and the review 71/210.6 115.7ks slower ball, full and dips outside off. Creates distance between the bat and pitch. The lack of pace fools Mishara. He drives and ends up weakly chipping it to short cover, where S Iyer dives forward to snap up a smart, low catch 76/314.4 Chipped to Rohit at short cover. Another offcutter from Bumrah, from wide of the crease. Chandimal shapes to drive, he plays early, and slices a drive to Rohit. Chandimal departs for 9 off 10 balls 102/4Extras11 (lb 7, w 4)TOTAL183/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.15)Fall of wickets: 1-67 (Danushka Gunathilaka, 8.4 ov), 2-71 (Charith Asalanka, 9.5 ov), 3-76 (Kamil Mishara, 10.6 ov), 4-102 (Dinesh Chandimal, 14.4 ov), 5-160 (Pathum Nissanka, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.6 played on! Length ball outside off, Rohit was looking to dab it down towards third man but it's too close to him. Off the inner half of the bat and bounces on to the stumps 9/15.1 a soft dismissal. Fuller around off, Kishan looks to whip it towards midwicket but ends up lobbing it towards mid-on. A dolly for Shanaka 44/212.6 Binura Fernando pulls off a stunning one-handed catch! Fractionally short and well wide of off. Samson throws his bat at ball and slices a thick outside edge. Binura at short third man leaps across to his right and comes out with the ball in his left hand. The ball flew to Binura. What an over: all action.
