- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.2 Another chaotic mix-up, Chibhabha was the victim on Saturday. Chari is the victim here. There was never a run there. Never. Slid onto the leg stump from around the wicket, Chari dabs it a few feet to the right of short midwicket and scampers off. Ervine is not interested in chancing a single. Chari, however, is almost halfway down the pitch. He turns back, and dives desperately, but is caught miles short. Mendis ran across, grabbed the ball, and threw it flat to Dickwella, the keeper, who did the rest 41/24.5 umpire Rusere's finger goes up. This looks very adjacent, Kulasekara celebrates the wicket with a fast pump. Nice and full, swings back in a bit. Chibhabha is caught playing across the front pad and is trapped in front of middle. His head falls over too. It would have carried on to crash into middle and leg. Playing across the line is fraught with danger on these surfaces.
