6.30pm: It took a while but the innings has finally ended. Sri Lanka lost wickets in a heap in the scramble for runs. This with Steyn out of commission. However, it is still a competitive total and under lights and with rain around, the seamers might have some help. Join us at 6.58pm.

Philander to Malinga, OUT, So Sri Lanka don't last 50 overs after all, this was a fuller delivery and Malinga was looking to clear the rope down the ground, he picked long-on and SL have lost 5 wickets for 11 runs

McLaren to Malinga, no run, lands it outside off and he tamely pokes his bat out
Malinga took his time to come out. Could have been timed out!
