- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.1 flat hit down the ground, and it's timed well, but it's straight to Babar Azam at long-off. He takes a sharp catch moving towards his left. He takes it well, and a sluggish innings from Nissanka comes to an end 60/33.2 Faheem Ashraf does this so well! Slows the pace right up, and with Mishara trying to hit through the line, he's too early on the shot, catching it on the bottom off the bat. It's skied up to mid-on, where a simple catch is taken, and Sri Lanka lose their first 31/15.4 oh, what's he done there?! He's run himself out, is what he's done! Ran it down to Wasim Jnr at third man, and then for some reason decided to take him on by taking the second run where one did not exist. Just gifting Pakistan a wicket 38/211.3 Cleaned up with a beauty! Nawaz shifts over the wicket, and tosses it up outside off. Perera lunges out to poke at it it, but leave a gaping hole between bat and pad which Nawaz saunters expertly through to peg back off stump 78/411.4 Nawaz has castled another, and this one is even better! Back around the wicket to the right-hander, and angles it in as Shanaka stays back to defend the turn. One hitch though, it doesn't turn and Shanaka is caught out playing down the wrong line as this skids through - the arm ball - to clatter into the stumps. Nawaz on a hat-trick! 78/513.3 Release shot, but not good enough! Excellent grab by Wasim Jr in the deep! Goes for the big slog sweep, and this one is in the slot as well, but he just doesn't get it far enough. Lots of work to do though for Wasim, who sets himself perfectly right on the edge of the boundary, takes the catch, realises he's overbalancing, so calmly pops it up and steps back out and in to complete the catch. Sri Lanka are folding fast 86/618.4 Hasaranga holes out! Back of a length and Hasaranga makes room to cut this high over backward point. But the man patrolling in the deep makes up good ground to his left and holds on well 121/7Extras6 (b 1, w 5)TOTAL128/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.4)Fall of wickets: 1-31 (Kamil Mishara, 3.2 ov), 2-38 (Kusal Mendis, 5.4 ov), 3-60 (Pathum Nissanka, 8.1 ov), 4-78 (Kusal Perera, 11.3 ov), 5-78 (Dasun Shanaka, 11.4 ov), 6-86 (Kamindu Mendis, 13.3 ov), 7-121 (Wanindu Hasaranga, 18.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.6 excellent wicketkeeping and poor awareness from Saim Ayub gifts Sri Lanka a wicket The ball got an inside edge and found it's way to the keeper on the bounce. His weight took him outside his crease, and the keeper whipped the bails off before the bat could be grounded 47/113.4 Chameera gets a consolation! Full and straight, some reverse as well, as Babar makes room looking to drive this inside out through the covers. Gets nowhere near it and off stump is flattened 116/213.5 And one becomes two! Jags back from back of a length, and catches Salman in his crease. Rapped on the top of the back pad, they don't even bother reviewing 116/3Extras10 (lb 4, w 6)TOTAL131/3 (15.3 Overs, RR: 8.45)Fall of wickets: 1-47 (Saim Ayub, 4.6 ov), 2-116 (Babar Azam, 13.4 ov), 3-116 (Salman Agha, 13.5 ov)
