- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.1 the half-centurion from the previous game is gone! What a tame chip to short cover. Big, big moment for Malaysia very early in the game. Vishmi checks her drive and it's the simplest of catches. Suabika is ecstatic, and why not? 5/19.3 yorks herself! Samarawickrama must be gutted. She was looking to drill that through cover initially but saw the ball drift in late and tried to change her shot and attempt a squeeze behind point, but missed it altogether. 69/219.5 walks across a bit too far trying to sweep, but this full ball veered in and beat her attempted sweep. 184/319.6 two in two as she flattens the stumps with another yorker. The carnage ends and Athapaththu remains unbeaten. You'd think Sri Lanka have more than enough. 184/4Extras7 (nb 1, w 6)TOTAL184/4 (20 Overs, RR: 9.2)Fall of wickets: 1-5 (Vishmi Gunaratne, 1.1 ov), 2-69 (Harshitha Samarawickrama, 9.3 ov), 3-184 (Anushka Sanjeewani, 19.5 ov), 4-184 (Kavisha Dilhari, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.4 off stump pegged back. A lazy little waft from Duraisingam, outside the line of outswinger. Basically expecting it to swing more than it does. Kavindi is on the board 0/13.3 short ball, skids through, stays low. A bit like a flipper. Not sure if she meant to bowl one. Julia pulls over it, misses it, and is bowled 14/25.1 plays all over it. It is a full toss that she has completely missed. Perhaps a bit of drift in, but it lands on the crease and bowls her leg stump. She should be taking these on the full and whacking them to leg 17/310.5 another one bites the dust. Full and straight, Mahirah plays down the wrong line, and is bowled middle stump 32/56.1 teases her with a wide flighted delivery, the drift takes it away from her, and all Ainna can manage is a thick edge to cover. An easy lob to catch 23/413.5 lovely catch by Sanjeewani. Takes a bottom edge. A big deflection too as Muhunan tries to cut. Sanjeewani stays low, follows the ball and pouches it perfectly 33/615.3 No. 3 for Shashini. Again bowled. This one turns back in. She doesn't turn them much. Eleese is caught on the back foot, the ball turns in ever so slightly to hit the pad and then the off stump 37/716.5 too ease. Quicker one followed by a slower flighted delivery. Suabika ends up lobbing it for an easy catch to cover-point 38/816.6 was the No. 10. Fires this in, straight at the wicket, too good for Syafiqa. Bowled her through the gap. Dilhari will be on a hat-trick if she gets to bowl again 38/919.5 all over. Kavindi finally gets one on target, and Sorfina is bowled.
