- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.5 Oh he's bowled him! Beautiful bowling from Vandersay! This is the top spinner, but Kaitano defends looking for the turn. Leaves a gap between bat and pad, and Vandersay finds it! 59/115.4 OUT! Tossed up and he draws Chakabva outside the crease, attempting a cover drive. The ball spins well away from the bat and is collected by the keeper, who whips off the bails as the batter's back leg exits the crease. A superb stumping from Kusal Mendis! 90/243.5 OUT! Craig Ervine misses out on a deserved century! Theekshana sends one in outside off and Ervine misjudges the line, edging it onto his stumps. A huge breakthrough for Sri Lanka! 256/532.6 And Vandersay with the breakthrough once more! It's the googly once more, tossed up, induces the drive and beats the edge. Williams' weight is leaning forward though and that props up his back foot. Mendis is on it in a flash behind the stumps to whip off the bails. 196/335.3 And the stumps are rattled! Madhevere goes for the big heave over mid-on, but he misses the line completely. It's a length ball, nipping back a touch and Chamika is delighted. 205/449.6 Short, at the stumps and he's only able to heave the ball into the air with mid-off backing away to take the catch. 302/848.6 Yorker, takes the inside edge and drops near the stumps. Burl charges in to steal a single and Chameera does well to run in and hit the stumps. The third umpire has little doubt as Burl is well short. OUT! 297/649.2 OUT! Full, outside off and he walks across and attempts to scoop the ball over short fine leg but he can't get enough on it and its a simple catch! 298/7Extras14 (b 3, lb 6, nb 2, w 3)TOTAL302/8 (50 Overs, RR: 6.04)Fall of wickets: 1-59 (Takudzwanashe Kaitano, 9.5 ov), 2-90 (Regis Chakabva, 15.4 ov), 3-196 (Sean Williams, 32.6 ov), 4-205 (Wessly Madhevere, 35.3 ov), 5-256 (Craig Ervine, 43.5 ov), 6-297 (Ryan Burl, 48.6 ov), 7-298 (Wellington Masakadza, 49.2 ov), 8-302 (Sikandar Raza, 49.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.5 But he's got his man here! Great line and length, just in that corridor outside off. Nissanka pushes at this and gets a clear edge through the keeper. Zimbabwe are on top here. 25/24.4 Well, well, well! Where did that come from? Beautiful bowling from Chatara, who has peppered Mendis with outswingers, and then pushes this one up, but it nips in off the surface. Mendis goes for the drive but misses it all ends up. Stumps clattered! 19/134.3 And that pressure tells! Kamindu attempts to drive this ball but it holds up off a length and he ends up chipping this straight over the bowler. Mid-off moves to his left and holds on to this with just one hand. 181/57.5 Edged and well taken by Raza at first slip! Length ball, seaming away and Chandimal can't help but drive at this. But he's late on the shot and the edge is a thick one. This is a BIG wicket! 31/314.3 My goodness! Asalanka loses the top of off stump! This pitches on off, draws the batter onto the front foot and then spins past the outside edge to clip the top of off. Dream dismissal for the offspinner. And Sri Lanka are reeling! 63/444.4 OUT! Shanaka holes out and it's silence in the stadium. Chatara bowls another slower ball wide outside off and Shanaka swings at it, lofting it straight towards Raza at long off. 247/647.1 Full, wide outside off and he shuffles across and strikes it into deep cover. The batters attempt a risky two and Regis Chakabva whips the bails off and it's a run-out at the strikers end! That's the end of Karunaratne - disaster for Sri Lanka! 266/748.1 OUT! Full, at the stumps and he digs it out, with the bottom off the bat and can only elevate it towards long on for an easy catch! 268/849.2 Short and goes for the hook, but only manages a faint edge through to the keeper. 273/9Extras13 (lb 5, nb 1, w 7)TOTAL280/9 (50 Overs, RR: 5.6)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Kusal Mendis, 4.4 ov), 2-25 (Pathum Nissanka, 5.5 ov), 3-31 (Dinesh Chandimal, 7.5 ov), 4-63 (Charith Asalanka, 14.3 ov), 5-181 (Kamindu Mendis, 34.3 ov), 6-247 (Dasun Shanaka, 44.4 ov), 7-266 (Chamika Karunaratne, 47.1 ov), 8-268 (Dushmantha Chameera, 48.1 ov), 9-273 (Jeffrey Vandersay, 49.2 ov)
