    10.1 Rapped on the pads and SL have reviewed. This goes on with Theekshana's arm from a length and it strikes Warner on the back pad as he looks to work it legside. This looks close. Yes, that's three reds! Warner has to go, and it's two in two for Sri Lanka! 85/3
    5.4 bowled him! Completely deceived Finch. Much slower, a wrong un from the back of the hand, it drops on him as he tries to slog sweep and dips under the bat to hit the top of off. 43/1
    9.6 holes out to long on! Gunathilaka hangs on, just! Wrong un, Maxwell picked it and was down to try and launch over long on, he hits it too flat, straight to Gunathilaka who juggles but clutches to his body 85/2

    10.2 And it's three in three! This is tossed up and Inglis goes for the paddle sweep, there's no one on the leg side, so he starts on the run but Asalanka from slip does brilliantly to run across, pick up the ball, and throw down the stumps! Inglis has no time to get back. 85/4
    15.6 Oh but he's gone for certain now! Stoinis comes down the track once more, but this time he telegraphs it and Jayawickrama drags the ball a little shorter. It's big swing and a miss, and Stoinis is so far down the track he doesn't even bother turning back. 133/5

    3.2 top edge caught at fine leg! Extra bounce from Hazlewood. Gunathilaka tried to pull in the air over square leg but got a top edge that flew high to fine leg, Jhye Richardson showed great awareness to hold his position on the rope and take the catch while balanced 25/1
    10.5 Lobbed to short third man! Oh what a soft, soft dismissal. Nissanka comes down the track, Stoinis again spots it and drags it a little shorter and wider. This forces Nissanka to reach for the ball and he can only guide the simplest of catches to Hazlewood. 81/3
    8.2 top edge caught at short fine! Shorter slower ball climbs on Asalanka. He can't get on top of the bounce, closes the face and gets a leading edge that flies high to short fine and Finch back tracks to take a simple catch 67/2
    12.2 Oh and that looks very close! Bhanuka goes for the sweep, misses and looks to be hit in front. Given not out. Australia after some consultation have gone for the review. Question is, did this pitch outside leg? No it didn't! And that's three reds! Bhanuka has to go. 96/4
    13.5 Bowled him! Back of length from Hazlewood, Mendis shuffles across and looks to pull this fine on the leg side, but only manages to deflect the ball onto the stumps. Sri Lanka crumbling here. 98/5

    15.4 But now he has to go! Caught at mid-off! Good length and he looks to go over cover, but gets the toe-end of the bat, as the ball flies straight to Finch at a wide mid-off. 108/6
