11.21 am Sri Lanka's demolition of the Oman lineup is complete before the clock strikes 12. Only three players reach double-figures for Oman. They did very well to survive the opening new ball burst from Kumara and constructed a solid half-century partnership in reply. But the wicket of Jatinder Singh missing a paddle sweep against Hasaranga for the spinner's first wicket was when the dam broke and the floodgates opened. Sri Lanka should wrap this up quickly but Oman has to fight hard in the second innings to extend this match as much as possible to limit their net run rate hit from today. They have two wins so are basically assured a spot in the Super Sixes, but it's not just the points that carry from this Group stage into the Super Sixes but the net run rate from these matches as well. Join us for the start of the chase shortly when Madushka returns to the central commentary position.

PW Hasaranga to Bilal Khan, OUT, another five-for by Wanindu in this tournament! Floated full on off stump spinning in, Bilal can't help himself with another wild tailender heave and misses. He's struck on the belt line but is crouching low on his knee playing the shot so is hit relatively low all things considered. Big lbw appeal is upheld after some thought by Gregory Brathwaite.

Sagar: "There you go. Srilanka - The biggest bully of associate cricket." Indeed they are. And usually it's their mystery spinners over the years who have been the biggest bullies within the bowling attack.
