    3.3 first wicket for Madushan. Wide length ball, gets some swing away, Rizwan has had enough half-hits, he is going for the big one, but the swing undoes him. Starts off thinking he will go over mid-off, but the swing means he is dragging it. All he manages is a top edge to short fine leg 28/1
    10.4 first sign of intent in the last half an hour, and he is bowled. Babar sees the legbreak all right, goes down the track, swings across the line, but the ball just goes straight on to get him bowled 68/3
    9.2 Fakhar seems to have picked out the biggest part of the ground. This is on-pace, Fakhar stays leg side of it and upper-cuts it. Seems like a decent hit, and perhaps would have been six from the other end. Here he finds deep this, Hasaranga, who times his leap to perfection 63/2
    14.5 Hasaranga strikes right back. He shortens the length this time, Iftikhar still tries the slog-sweep, and might have connected still, but the ball stays low and deflects off his pad onto the wicket 91/5
    13.3 another show of intent, and another wicket. Skips down the wicket, but not quite to its pitch, and the ball turns too. Gets the toe end and skies it to long-on 82/4
    18.5 goes back and across, pulls this to deep midwicket, and risks a second. Nawaz dives in, but he falls short. Lovely throw on the top of the stumps 121/9
    14.6 Hasaranga would have been on a hat-trick had this not been the last ball of his spell. Asif is a touch unlucky. He has picked the wrong'un, looks to play Hasaranga out, but the ball doesn't turn as much and beats his outside edge to hit the off stumps 91/6
    15.6 No. 7. Hasan shuffles across to try the big sweep, but is nowhere near the pitch, gets a massive top edge to be caught at deep square leg 95/7
    17.5 Qadir tries the big slog sweep here but this is an offbreak that turns away from him outside off, and he gets a massive top edge to deep midwicket 110/8
    19.1 and he ends up with two. Bowls a wide slower ball, back of the hand, Rauf doesn't have too many options. He just goes hard at it, and finds long-on to perfection 121/10

    0.2 the slip cordon is in play! And pretty much the near-perfect start for Pakistan. The aggressive Kusal Mendis pokes at a short-ish ball that was seaming away from him. Played away from his body, takes the edge, and it floats into the hands of first slip. 1/1
    1.2 Rizwan snaps this up! And he's displayed some mega air time diving to his left and taking it from where first slip was. Rauf bowls a nothing delivery. Short and wide, and angling away. Gunathilaka tried to set the tone by hitting a cut square, but the extra bounce induces the edge, and if there was any doubts over Rizwan's mobility, those doubts are buried! 2/2
    4.6 done in by the extra pace! Good length ball angling into middle stump and de Silva has to offer a shot before he expected it. Tries to punch it leg side but the ball hits the face of the bat and goes high up in the air for mid off to run in and take the catch. 147kph, de Silva was definitely surprised by how quickly it got to him 29/3
    11.3 wickettttttttttt! And the wristspinner breaks the 51-run partnership. Tosses it up, just outside off. Rajapaksa tries the slog sweep against the googly, but he's only got the elevation. Deep midwicket runs in, keeps his eyes on the ball, and that's SL four down! 80/4
    16.2 slower ball does the trick and once again two Pakistan fielders nearly collide while taking a catch. Takes the pace off, full ball just outside off. Shanaka looks to tee off over Hasnain's head, but can only sky this shot. Hasan and Iftikhar are both running in from long on and long off to take the catch, and neither are looking at the other. They both take a tumble, but we see that Hasan has the ball safely in his grasp. 113/5
