    0.2 Caught at mid-on! And Dambulla have their first wicket. Back of a length delivery on middle and off, Rajapaksa tries to go over leg side but there is no timing on that shot and ends up holing out to Kerr at mid-on 0/1
    19.5 they try a bye, and Croospulle is run out. This is a seaming length ball outside off, and Croospuller has called his partner through early. But Mendis is quick with the under-arm throw, as well as accurate. The batter is given out on the ground - he's out by a distance. 146/9
    3.1 Wicket off the first ball! Pitches it full and way outside off, Litton Das tries hard to reach the ball as he comes down the track, swings his bat it only to be caught at deep third 25/2
    9.3 DDS breaks the stand! Big wicket for Dambulla. Shakib was looking good so far. Dhananjaya pitches this full on leg, the batter has already moved away from the legstump as he goes for a sweep but top-edges it to deep square leg. There was a little bit of extra bounce too 76/3
    12.1 They've got Titans' captain. Shanaka was looking decent, but Noor has flighted this one nicely, and pitched it on off, turning in. Shanaka tries to hit over long on, but it turns and gets the inside half of the bat. He did not get the elevation he needed, and long on just has to take some steps to the left and pouch it 93/4
    12.4 superb catching from Hemantha at backward point. This is Noor's stock ball, turning away from the leftie, who tries to drive him through the covers, but gets a big outside edge, which Hemantha has to run in and dive to get his fingers underneath. There's some question as to whether the ball bounced first, but it didn't. The fielder had his fingers around it. 95/5
    16.4 perfect response! Kerr nails the yorker he was going for with the last delivery, and sneaks it under Sumarakoon's bat, and into the stumps. A bit of tail in on that ball too 124/6
    18.3 again another attempt at a wide yorker, and they run a single to backward pojnt, but Hemantha at backward point has pulled off a direct-hit run out.. Got to the ball quickly and released it just as quicky. 141/7
    18.5 another one goes down! That's a shin-high full toss, and Kumara gets forward to trie and pummel it past mid on, but ends up holing out to long off instead 141/8

    19.6 lbw shout and that's given out. This hit the batter on the knee roll in front of middle and off. Looked pretty plumb. Replays confirm that it is plumb. 146/10

    3.4 Shakib strikes! There is some turn on this. Full ball pitched around offstump, Avishka comes down the track to hit this and it spun away from him as Litton quickly collects the ball and removes the bails. looked like he wanted to repeat the shot from the previous delivery 33/1
    17.5 big appeal from Shamsi! Did that hit the pad? Shamsi reviews. That was a length ball, pitching on the stumps and straightening. And that's a great review from Shamsi. As Mendis had tried to sweep it, there was some doubt as to whether that had struck some pard of the bat or glove, but he'd missed it by a distance in the end. Hits him in front of middle. The ball is going on to hit middle, about halfway out. On the review it looks PLUMB. Mendis knew it and was halfway to the dressing room before the decision even came in. 133/3
    8.3 Prasana breaks the stand. Looked like a really good shot. Full ball pitched outside off, Samarawickrama comes down the ground looking to heave that over deep extra cover but hits it straight to fielder, who ran in quickly form long-off 64/2
    19.1 he's out! All he needed to do was miss a fielder, and he has clubbed a slower-ball full toss back to the bowler. Shanaka has caught that easily in his follow through. 146/4
