- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.2 Imad has Danushka nicking off! Flatter and sliding across off from around the wicket, a crease-bound Danushka slashes and edges it behind to Sarfaraz 16/14.6 Direct hit (from Shadab, who else?) Another arm ball, jabbed away to the right of midwicket. Shadab runs in, swoops down on the ball, and nails the stumps at the non-striker's end to catch Avishka well short. Such a swift pick-up and throw from Shadab 41/216.1 fuller and wider outside off, goes inside out over extra cover but not enough on it to clear the fielder in dip. In fact, Fakhar takes a couple of steps forward and pouches it calmly 142/415.2 A direct hit by Asif Ali. Fuller outside off, smashes it straight towards mid-off and sets off. Asif Ali positions himself, one-and-a-half stump to aim at and he nails it. Jayasuriya was not even in the frame 135/316.4 third run-out of the innings. Fuller outside off, drives it towards extra cover, a sliding stop by Wahab to his left, who lobs it to the left of Shadab. Not the best of the throws but Shadab grabs it with both hands and flicks it onto the stumps. Bhanuka was so short that he had given up 145/517.6 Wahab gets his man, no checking with anyone this time. He goes fuller and dead straight, Udana backs away and looks to smash it down the ground, misses and the middle stump is uprooted 155/6Extras11 (b 1, lb 6, w 4)TOTAL182/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9.1)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Danushka Gunathilaka, 2.2 ov), 2-41 (Avishka Fernando, 4.6 ov), 3-135 (Shehan Jayasuriya, 15.2 ov), 4-142 (Bhanuka Rajapaksa, 16.1 ov), 5-145 (Minod Bhanuka, 16.4 ov), 6-155 (Isuru Udana, 17.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.1 Pradeep knocks over Pakistan's best batsman! Fuller and angling into middle from over the wicket, a crease-bound Babar swings for the hills and only drags it back onto the stumps via a thick inside edge 11/22.1 What have you done, Fakhar? This wicket hushes Lahore. Fakhar pre-meditates, jumps across off even before Rajitha delivers. He searches for a scoop, the seamer darts it outside off, the ball kisses the pad and rolls back onto the stumps. Rajitha produces the breakthrough for SL 9/17.3 Shehzad ventures down the track again only to have his stumps rattled. Big-turning wrong'un from Hasaranga, Shehzad leaves his crease, he is nowhere close to the pitch of this ball. It dips, turns, and disturbs the furniture. Wild leg-side heave from Shehzad 51/37.6 Three wickets in four balls for Hasranga! He wheels away. Catch him if you can. Another wrong'un, turns back in once again, a crease-bound Sarfraz chops and misses. Timber. Game-changing over from Hasaranga 52/57.4 Umar out. Another wrong'un from Hasaranga, fizzes back in, rushes the batsman for pace. He is late to jab his bat down. Pad first I reckon. Yes, hits the flap of the back pad in line with middle. Back-to-back golden ducks for Umar. He reviews the on-field out decision in vain 51/418.3 a slower one, looks to smash it towards deep midwicket, but it's too full for the pull, Asif Ali misses and the off stump is pegged back 145/915.5 fuller around off, Imad looks to repeat the shot but misses and is hit on the leg. An appeal for lbw and up goes the finger. Would have gone on to crashed into off and middle 127/616.6 back-of-the-hand slower one this time, Wahab looks to scoop it over short fine leg, the idea is fine but fails in the execution and the keeper pedals back to take it comfortably 136/717.1 fuller outside off, Shadab looks to go aerial down the ground, gets it from the outer half and an easy catch to Shanaka at extra cover 136/818.6 that's the match, and the series for Sri Lanka.. A length again, backs away and lofts it towards long-on, doesn't get the required distance and fittingly it's Hasaranga who completes an easy catch 147/10Extras10 (lb 2, w 8)TOTAL147 all out (19 Overs, RR: 7.73)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Fakhar Zaman, 2.1 ov), 2-11 (Babar Azam, 3.1 ov), 3-51 (Ahmed Shehzad, 7.3 ov), 4-51 (Umar Akmal, 7.4 ov), 5-52 (Sarfaraz Ahmed, 7.6 ov), 6-127 (Imad Wasim, 15.5 ov), 7-136 (Wahab Riaz, 16.6 ov), 8-136 (Shadab Khan, 17.1 ov), 9-145 (Asif Ali, 18.3 ov), 10-147 (Mohammad Hasnain, 18.6 ov)
