6.13pm So, no hundred for Mushfiqur. Nevertheless, this has been a quality innings and he is warmly welcomed back by his team-mates and the support staff. After Bangladesh were reduced to 117 for 6 on the sluggish Premadasa track, Mushfiqur combined with Mehidy to repair the innings with a brisk 84-run stand. Mushfiqur then farmed the strike with the tail to Bangladesh closer to 250. Akila Dananjaya, returning to international cricket with a remodelled action, showed that his effectiveness had not decreased. He mixed up his offbreaks with legbreaks and wrong'uns, posing questions to Bangladesh's batsmen. Akila was ably backed up by de Silva and Pradeep. Sri Lanka need 239 to wrap up the series 2-0. Ankur will be back with you to launch the chase. Cheers.

Mehidy: Definitely, Mushfiqur deserved a hundred. I think he did very well. We were under pressure, four down. Mushi just told me to keep going

Pradeep to Mustafizur Rahman, 3 byes, Kusal Perera takes one glove off even before Pradeep loads up. But he can't capitalise on a run-out chance, SL end up conceding overthrows. Mustafizur slogs to the leg side and misses. Kusal throws it to Pradeep, who has a shy at the stumps at his end, but it's well away from the reach

Pradeep to Mushfiqur Rahim, 1 run, legcutter outside off, stabbed to the left of cover for one

Sudip Timilsina: "Bangladesh team has quality players besides Shakib too. They are not as good as Shakib is but they are good nevertheless. The problem with Bangladeshi team is that they have not been able to click as a team. When one star fails, other has to take the responsibility. They instead start crumbling. They need a Mushfiqur like innings every game they play."

Pradeep to Taijul Islam, OUT, lifter outside off from around the wicket, Taijul wants to slug it over midwicket, but does not touch it. Mushfiqur hares across for the bye, but Taijul is ball-watching and is late to respond. Kusal gathers the ball and passes it to Pradeep, who nails the stumps with an overarm throw to catch Taijul short by an inch or two. Mushfiqur is seething and gives the departing Taijul and earful

Taijul Islam run out 3 (9b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33

Pradeep to Mushfiqur Rahim, 1 run, Dropped by Kusal. On a length and outside off, Mushfiqur jumps across off and scoops it in the air. Kusal leaps, but can't cling onto this one-hander. Such a tough chance

Udana to Mushfiqur Rahim, SIX, Udana loses his length and his head. Full-toss on middle, Mushfiqur sizes it up and launches it like a bazooka over the longest boundary. Powered over midwicket. Okay, the two umpires converge and deliberate whether this is a beamer. Is is above the waist? Nope, doesn't look like it, not given a no-ball

Udana to Mushfiqur Rahim, FOUR, slower legcutter outside off, third man is up in the circle, Mushfiqur spots it and reverse-scoops it fine of him
