0.5 to MS Atapattu, here we go, ball pitched outside off stump, came in with the angle, Atapattu tried to defend on the front foot, missed it, struck on the pad, loud appeal and up goes the finger, Tuffey strikes. 0/1
Shane Bond	28	6	97	3	3.46	133	0	1
5.6 to WPUJC Vaas, edged as ball moved across him, a two handed knee high catch for Fleming to hold and thats all. 11/2 36.2 to ST Jayasuriya, short, defended at his feet, ball bounced over his head and then ran onto legstump and bail comes off, so Bond will forget his tummy now. 114/3 143.1 to HP Tillakaratne, ball was angling across and he went to steer it to third man but bottom edges it back into his stumps from outside off. 444/7
Jacob Oram	30	13	62	1	2.06	154	0	1

151.2 to HDPK Dharmasena, the armball gets him, going straight and caught in front, Dharmasena shows his bat to ump Taufel indicating a touch but probably after being hit on the leg. 483/8 151.3 to RAP Nissanka, a fast one and straight in, 93kph ball and the finger goes up as it was plumb. 483/9 151.6 to M Muralidaran, was the armer, misses the bat and hits the back pad and gets the finger this time. 483/10
Paul Wiseman	41	13	127	2	3.09	190	0	0
39.6 to KC Sangakkara, Sangakkara pays for this rush of blood, played across to mid wicket, ball turned got top edge and the huge Oram ran miles behind him at mid off to catch it low, great effort. 134/4 112.2 to RS Kaluwitharana, tosses up, comes down the wicket and tries to loft it over mid wicket fielder, misstimed it and Sinclair takes a good catch at short mid wicket. 374/6

32.4 to MS Sinclair, pitched well outside off stump, went for the sweep, inside edge onto his pad and an easy catch for substitute fielder Dilshan at silly point. 76/2 58.4 to JDP Oram, Got'm! Pushes forward to a turning delivery, that turned a lot, took the outside edge, Kalu fumbles and then completes the catch, Oram walks back. 133/4 60.1 to RG Hart, Turn and bounce, Hart shuffles across and plays it straight into the hands of Sangakkara at forward short leg, a tame dismissal. 133/5

29.5 to MJ Horne, flighted ball, pitched on the off stump and kept its line, Horne went for a sweep, missed it, struck on the pad, loud appeal, up goes the finger, debutant Lokuarachchi gets his first wicket in test cricket. 71/1 47.3 to SB Styris, quicker ball, pitched just outside off stump, came in with the angle, Styris offered his front pad, struck a little outside off but given as he didn't offered a shot, 2nd wicket for young Lokuarachchi. 108/3
