- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.4 this is fired in from around the wicket, and it's caught Hasini Perera plumb! She'd been late on the shot earlier in the over as well, but this time she's missed completely and it's fatal. It would have easily been crashing into middle. 54/27.2 There's the breakthrough! And it's the big one of Athapaththu! Short and wide, and the Lankan skipper goes hard on the cut. Clear two sounds as Richa Ghosh holds on well to this bottom edge. Some low bounce there doing the trick for the Reddy 23/115.6 disaster! Utterly unnecessary run out has led to the wicket of Sri Lanka's key batter. Samarawickrama pushed this into the off side and took off for a run, but did not have much of a response from Karunaratne, who sent her back. By this time, though, Jemima Rodrigues had swooped on the ball and sent in a nice flat throw to Ghosh, who took it by the stumps. Samarawickrama was miles short. 67/317.2 Sri Lanka are falling apart here. That felt like a soft dismissal from Karunaratne, who has been tetchy. She runs at Rana again, but the ball is on her quicker than she expects, and all she ends up doing is pinging it back to Rana, who takes a good catch around thigh-height 69/425.2 huge blow for the debutant. That's a moment Charani will remember forever - her first international wicket. She tempted Dilhari into a big shot against the turn by hanging it up in the air tantalisingly outisde off stump. Dilhari gets low and tries to slog sweep it, but can only provide a top edge, that floats out to cover. Sri Lanka keep sliding. We're into the tail now. 106/621.4 appeal for a return catch here, but was that a bump ball? This was a full ball, that almost yorked Nilankshi as she walked down the track. She hits the ball back to Rana who gets low and catches it cleanly by her shins. But did that come straight off the bat? To me it looks like the it came straight off the bat so that should be out. That's confirmed by the third ump. Rana does really well to get low and snaffle the chance inches above the ground as well. She keeps striking! 93/536.5 An now that attempted aggression costs Sri Lanka wicket number eight! Looks to come down the track again, but gets nowhere near the pitch of off it. Ends up swinging all around it as Ghosh completes a regulation stumping 144/827.3 holes out to mid on, who takes a good overhead catch. This was slightly on the shorter side, and Piumi went back to crash it over leg. It turned away more than she expected though, so she mistimed it, and couldn't beat the fielder. 112/738.1 And Rodrigues brings the innings to a close in style! Kulasuriya goes for a slog sweep and this one hangs in the air. Rodrigues hares in from the deep midwicket boundary and springs forward to hold this with both hands. She's been excellent from ball one today, and it's a fitting close to this innings. Sri Lanka are bowled out for 147 147/1037.2 Is this another run out?! Yes it is! This was full on off, and it was a controlled chip over the infield over cover. There was a mix-up though when coming back for the third, and that hesitation left Madara having to dive back into her crease at the striker's end. But to no avail, as Sri Lanka lose their ninth 147/9Extras14 (b 12, w 2)TOTAL147 all out (38.1 Overs, RR: 3.85)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Chamari Athapaththu, 7.2 ov), 2-54 (Hasini Perera, 13.4 ov), 3-67 (Harshitha Samarawickrama, 15.6 ov), 4-69 (Hansima Karunaratne, 17.2 ov), 5-93 (Nilakshika Silva, 21.4 ov), 6-106 (Kavisha Dilhari, 25.2 ov), 7-112 (Piumi Wathsala, 27.3 ov), 8-144 (Anushka Sanjeewani, 36.5 ov), 9-147 (Malki Madara, 37.2 ov), 10-147 (Achini Kulasuriya, 38.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.5 flummoxes her in the flight and gets a neat return catch! That's why Ranaweera is so trusted! This was tossed up beautifully, and pitched tantalisingly full. Mandhana can't resist a big drive, but it is in the air longer than she expects, and all she can do is thump it back to Ranaweera, who takes a good catch above her head.
