Aura probably pretty happy about keeping Falcons to 160 for 7. But do they have the batting firepower to chase it down against an attack of the quality of Falcons? We'll be back with the reply in a bit.

Forde to Karunaratne, SIX, he connects with that one, though. Clears wide long on, just. this is a short ball wide of off. Karunaratne comes down the track and flat bats that juuust over the fielder down there, who can't haul it in.

Perera to Karunaratne, 1 leg bye, that's gone straight up and that's a huge missed chance. Perera swings across the line at a length ball on the stumps. It goes hiiigh off the top edge. Either the keeper or the bowler could have got to that, but both stop about two metres short of the ball. And blame each other after.
