6.25pm A superb effort from Chandimal carries Sri Lanka to 226, a score they will take after that middle-overs stutter. Batting in his final ODI, Dilshan got Sri Lanka off to a solid start but picked out midwicket for 42. Sri Lanka kept losing wickets through the middle, setting them back, but Chandimal ensured he stayed there till the end to give some respectability to the score. Could be quite a tricky chase actually. Stick around to find out.

Faulkner to Chandimal, OUT, nice catch from Zampa at long-on to end the innings. A slower ball on off, Chandimal comes down and swings through the line, the ball goes up, stays up for quite a while, but Zampa sets himself under it at long-on and takes a good catch.
