Sri Lanka innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
WU Tharanga	b Odoyo	10	12	11	1	0	90.90
2.6 The middle stump has been pegged back. Revenge for Odoyo. Fuller in length, on the middle stump line, straightens a touch and Tharanga went for an ambitious pull shot, missed it completely and heard the death knell. The previous delivery was much shorter and he could unfurl the pull but this was bad shot selection 19/1
ST Jayasuriya	c sub (AO Suji) b Odhiambo	88	65	44	11	4	200.00
14.2 Done in by the slower one. Full and on the middle and leg, Jayasuriya tried to pull it over square leg but instead edges a skier towards mid-on. It has been a brutal knock from Jayasuriya. 181/3
KC Sangakkara†	b Kamande	30	27	18	5	0	166.66
9.3 the leg stump has been pegged back. Full and straight on the leg stump line, Sangakkara tries to paddle it away but misses it completely. 94/2
DPMD Jayawardene*	lbw b Kamande	65	37	27	9	2	240.74
17.2 Mahela falls after a whirlwind knock. Full and straight, Mahela fails to connect with his sweep shot and is trapped in front. He hit his second ball for a six and continued to escalate the violence 212/5
LPC Silva	run out (CO Obuya/†Ouma)	5	6	4	1	0	125.00
15.6 from Onyango, swept past square leg and Silva attempts to get back for the risky second run but the accurate throw finds him short of the crease 194/4
TM Dilshan	b Kamande	3	8	4	0	0	75.00
17.6 backs the leg-side in an effort to drive the ball through the off side but the ball lands on a length and hurried straight on to the off stump. Dilshan misses to connect his intended drive and is castled 215/6
J Mubarak	not out	46	10	13	3	5	353.84

G Wijekoon	not out	1	8	1	0	0	100.00

Kenya innings (target: 261 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
MA Ouma†	lbw b Vaas	0	1	3	0	0	0.00
0.3 Vaas traps him in front. It landed on a length, on the middle stump line and straightened and beat the intended defensive prod. Ouma's bat came across the line and played all over the delivery 0/1
DO Obuya	run out (Jayasuriya/Wijekoon)	18	61	33	1	0	54.54
14.3 Wijekoon to Obanda, yorker length again, on the leg and middle line, squeezed out with the help of a inside edge to short fine leg. Obanda calls for a run and rushes across but Obuya stays rooted - it was Obanda's call as it went behind the wicket - and Obanda is run out as both end up at the same end. 66/6
NN Odhiambo	b Vaas	5	11	8	1	0	62.50
2.6 The timber is disturbed. Another wild slog across the line and the fullish delivery squeezes past the flashing blade and crashes into the off stump 20/2
T Mishra	st †Sangakkara b Jayasuriya	16	27	22	0	1	72.72
9.1 flighted delivery, turning away from Mishra who tries to slog-sweep it but makes no conact. The feet is on the line as the bails come off. It is refered upstairs and the verdict is OUT. 42/3
SO Tikolo*	c Jayawardene b Malinga	4	2	4	0	0	100.00
10.1 Fullish, outside the off stump, a loose drive is attempted and the outside edge flies low - boot high - to Mahela at first slip who catches it cleanly. Very well taken. 47/4
CO Obuya	c & b Malinga	2	2	3	0	0	66.66
10.4 off cutter on a length, it stopped on the batsman who ended up stabbing at it and the ball lobs back to Malinga 50/5
AA Obanda	st †Sangakkara b Dilshan	21	20	25	2	0	84.00
17.2 stumped. Slow through the air, lobbed outside off stump and it went on straight. Obanda jumped out and missed his big heave 81/7
JK Kamande	lbw b Wijekoon	4	10	10	0	0	40.00
18.2 dead plumb. Yorker-length again, on the middle, the bat went across the line and is trapped in front 83/8
LN Onyango	not out	4	6	4	0	0	100.00

PJ Ongondo	c Jayawardene b Dilshan	3	3	5	0	0	60.00
19.3 That's it, it's all over. Tossed-up, on the middle stump line, tries a slog-sweep but ends up ballooning it to cover. Since Odoyo will not bat - absent hurt - Sri Lanka have wrapped up a massive victory 88/10
