    9.4 Avishka throws it away! Great take by Hasaranga at midwicket though! This was a good length ball on the stumps, and Avishka looks to work it onside. He can't keep it down though, and Hasaranga moves swiftly to take a good low catch diving to his right. 80/2

    9.6 And Mujeeb has another! Edirisinghe deceived completely here. It's the carrom ball that keeps low off a back of a length. Edirisinghe looks to back away and cut this but is surprised as this keeps coming in and then rifles into middle and off 81/3

    14.3 And now he gets him! Again pace-off, almost a googly from the back of the hand. Pitches outside off and nips in a touch. Dhananjaya hacks across the line but misses all ends up. Off stump is disturbed. 104/4

    14.5 Another one bits the dust! This is the cross-seamer from Pradeep, 136kph, pitches just back of a length and nips back in. Ross goes back to defend but this skids past the inside edge and crashes into the top of off 104/5

    1.6 Chipped back to Dhananjaya! Haris follows his compatriot in quick time. This was dragged back of a length by DDS, seam up. It sits up in the wicket and Haris, looking to work it onside, only manages to chip it gently back to DDS 12/2

    16.1 And is that the game? Chandimal drags on! This was pace-off on a good length outside off. Chandimal looks to drag this on to the onside but only manages to chop on 120/8

    12.6 Run out chance! Chandimal drives this back low and straight. Hemantha gets fingers on this though to the stumps at the non-striker's end. Is Ali back in his crease in time? And oh my, the third umpire declares that the bat is not grounded despite being behind the crease. Ali has to go. 102/6
