- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.4 Afridi has the last laugh! Similar line and length but a slower ball this time, at just 122.7kph. Nissanka went for the pull once again but the ball arrived a lifetime later and crashed into the stumps 20/113.1 an excellent catch by Babar, running in from long-off and lunging forward to complete the catch. Mishara came down the ground and looked for another six. He only got the height this time, not the distance 98/310.3 down the track and hits it flat towards long-off. Babar times his jump to the perfection and catches it just inside the boundary line. Balances him on one leg to ensure he stays inside the playing field 84/214.6 Abrar gets another, Babar catches another. Rathnayake goes down the track, hoping to clear long-off. He fails to middle it though and Babar takes a couple of steps in and catches it with fingers point upwards 104/514.4 down the track and looks to go big. But he is nowhere near the pitch of the ball and ends up hitting it straight up. Usman calls for it and catches it a couple of yards in front of where a short leg would normally stand 103/418.1 the catch of the match! 111/815.3 chopped on! Sri Lanka in deep trouble. A length ball around off. Liyanage went back to slice it but all he got was an inside edge onto the stumps as the ball kept low 105/617.5 the off stump is out of its groove. Full around middle and off. Hasaranga goes for the slog sweep but gets beaten by the turn. The ball uproots the off stump 111/7Extras11 (lb 7, w 4)TOTAL111/8 (18.1 Overs, RR: 6.11)Fall of wickets: 1-20 (Pathum Nissanka, 2.4 ov), 2-84 (Kusal Mendis, 10.3 ov), 3-98 (Kamil Mishara, 13.1 ov), 4-103 (Kusal Perera, 14.4 ov), 5-104 (Pavan Rathnayake, 14.6 ov), 6-105 (Janith Liyanage, 15.3 ov), 7-111 (Wanindu Hasaranga, 17.5 ov), 8-111 (Dasun Shanaka, 18.1 ov)
