    1.3 Taskin has Nissanka! Having been beaten on the outside edge a couple of times, this one goes on with the arm and it raps Nissanka flush on the front knee roll. Perhaps this was worth a review, but they opt not to go upstairs. Bangladesh have the big fish 1/1
    3.5 And Avishka's poor series continues! A lovely away seamer from Taskin. This was just a touch shorter than the last one, draws Avishka in to the drive and moves this away off the surface. Catches the outside edge as Avishka is still moving forward even as the ball has been edged through 15/2
    17.1 He gets the breakthrough! Length ball outside off with slight turn away from the batter, Mendis rocks back and plays a lazy stroke to the offside, outside edges to the keeper. Soft dismissal 74/4
    10.2 Nicked behind off the inside edge! Back of the length ball onto the stumps, Samarawickrama tries to block it casually, beaten by the slight seam movement and edges it to the wicket keeper, no foot movement 41/3
    24.6 Edged and gone! Back of a length ball outside off, Asalanka attempts to cut it late but finds the outside edge straight to the wicket keeper. Big wicket for the Tigers 117/5

    30.6 Tossed up delivery, tries the slog sweep over the cow corner fence, mistimes and hits it aerially straight to the mid wicket fielder. 136/6
    34.1 Clean bowled! Length ball on the off stump, Hasaranga moves away to make room, attempts to play it square but gets beaten by the lack of bounce. 154/7
    47.1 And he breaks the stand! Theekshana looks to add some aggression to his game, but he just picks up this length ball straight down the throat of the man at deep midwicket 214/8
    49.5 Oh dear, collision near point! But the catch is taken! This was sliced in the air, and Anamul and Jaker Ali circle under the ball with no communication with each other. The former takes the catch and holds on, but not before crashing into Jaker, who is left sprawled on the ground 234/9
    49.6 short and slow outside off, pulls this down to deep midwicket and Kumara's slow turning arc sees him well short on a suicidal second. Sri Lanka are bowled out for 235 235/10

    8.2 Fuller length ball outside off, Anamul attempts to drive this through the covers but only manages to mishit aerially straight to the extra cover fielder. Well timed jump from Avishka to collect the catch 50/1
    25.5 And Hasaranga has done what he was brought in to do, he's got the big one of Tanzid! Tanzid was dealing mainly in dots and boundaries, and he goes for another big one, bit he's not quite at the pitch of this good length ball on off. Gets under it looking to clear the straight boundary and only manages to find long-on 130/5
    10.2 Edged and gone! Another loose shot from Shanto, and this time the edge goes straight through. Throws his hands with very little foot movement. Seaming away off a back of a length, Shanto plays well away from the body and pays the price 56/2
    21.4 Kumara gets another! This was short on off, and Hridoy rolls his wrists trying to keep this pull down but the extra bounce from Kumara gets the top edge and it flies down to Madushan at deep backward square, who makes no mistake 105/3
    23.1 Kumara has four! And he is pumped! This was back of a length just outside off. Not much movement, but it just about holds its line. Mahmudullah has his feet planted in the crease and ends up pushing at this away from his body. Loud nick through to the keeper, and he walks 113/4

    36.1 Short pitched delivery on the stumps, Miraz rocks back and tries to heave it over the cow corner fence, finds the elevation but not the distance, only manages to find the fielder near the boundary ropes. The fielder gobbles it up with ease. 178/6
