down the track, shortens his length a little and he slaps to extra-cover. And what's happened here? They've looked to run a single and there's been a run-out. And that is that for Scotland
Scotland vs Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI at Edinburgh, WC Warm-up, May 21 2019 - Ball by Ball Commentary
7.50pm The rain's beginning to come down again. Looks like we won't have a presentation ceremony. We can tell you, however, that Nuwan Pradeep is the Player of the Match. That's all from us. Hope you've enjoyed our coverage. Until next time, it's good night from me and Saurabh.
Haamidh Uwais: "A relief for Sri Lanka after winning a bilateral ODI series after 3 years. Will they be able to continue this in World Cup as well? Well I do think so. Though Sri Lanka are minnow bashers, they have always had the luck and chances to go to the knockouts in World Cups."
DanielAlexander: "This is Sri Lanka's first bilateral ODI series win after June 2016."
7.39pm Sri Lanka finally break their win-less sequence in ODIs. The last time they won in the format was in October 2018 against England. They've had eight straight defeats and one match abandoned since then, before today's victory.
Down the track, can't get close enough to the pitch, swings hard but can only send it to long-off on the bounce. Looks to keep strike even when two runs were out of the question, and poor Alasdair Evans is run out by yards at the danger end
37 off 7, six sixes to tie. Dhananjaya to finish. Round the wicket to Watt.
leg-stump yorker. Makes a bit of room and jabs into the covers
shot. Walks right across and flicks the full one on off stump over the man at short fine leg
bangs it in short on off stump. Looks to open up and pull, the ball hits high on his bat and pops up and plops down in the midwicket area
length ball outside off. Clears his front leg, slogs, misses
Alasdair Evans is on strike for the first time.
full on middle and leg. Looks to slog over mid-on and drags it through backward square leg off the inside half of his bat
Stays over the wicket to Watt.
Dilesha: "Was there a bit of reverse swing for Nuwan Pradeep? Nice to see the good old yorker though " -- A couple of those yorkers definitely seemed to tail in late.
slower length ball on off stump. Makes room and tries to go over mid-off. Ends up slicing it instead, high in the air to the fielder at extra-cover
Thisara Perera returns with Scotland needing 44 off the last two. Over the wicket to Sole.
sees Sole looking to make room and nails the yorker on leg stump. Jams his bat down and squeezes it down the ground into the mid-on region
Over the wicket to Sole.
in the blockhole again, angling into off stump, jabbed away into the covers
Fourth wicket for Pradeep. He's bowled really well today. All four wickets off really good balls - the bouncer to Coetzer and the in-ducker to Macleod before this. Now he's on a hat-trick with Mark Watt on strike. Round the wicket to the left-hander.
another yorker, another wicket. Right up at the base of middle and leg stumps, and he makes room to jab through the off side and misses
Safyaan Sharif is the new batsman. Pradeep goes over the wicket to the right-hander.
Hiran G: "Not sure why Jeevan Mendis has not bowled so far. If he is playing then we should try out his leg breaks!"
gone, he's found a way through. Again he clears his front leg and looks to go inside-out, over the covers. This ball, however, is too full for that, and angling too far in to give him any room. Past the inside edge of his angled bat, and into middle stump
ooh, nearly takes out off stump. Up in the blockhole again, and Munsey makes room and misses the big hit over the covers
Round the wicket.
wow, he's really rattled Sri Lanka here. Jumps deep in his crease to the attempted leg-stump yorker, and he ends up creating the leverage to whip it round to the backward square leg boundary. Top shot
Still Dre Russ territory. 50 off 18, with Munsey on strike. Pradeep returns, from over the wicket.
what a way to get off the mark! Length ball angling into off stump, and he shuffles across and scoops it over his shoulder and over the keeper's head
Over the wicket to Sole.
makes a lot of room and goes deep in his crease as well. Lakmal does very well to follow him with the yorker at the feet. Looks to whip it over the leg side but can only get an inside edge into his pads. Rolls away a short distance into the off-side half of the pitch
in the blockhole, right at Munsey's feet. Digs it out and clips it down the ground towards long-on. Rolls fairly slowly an the man has to come in off the rope, so they can run a quick two
length ball, angling into the stumps, and Munsey clears his front leg and hoicks it high over wide long-on to bring up a 37-ball fifty
again he slips one down the leg side, looking to cramp Munsey up. Slogs and misses
Tom Sole is the new man in. Lakmal goes round the wicket to Munsey, who's on strike because they crossed over.
full outside off, goes for the big hit, tries to take on long-off, and can't clear the fielder. Avishka Fernando moves a few steps to his left and takes it well
Over the wicket to Leask.
whangs the bouncer down the leg side, and he misses his hook. Mendis can't collect cleanly, moving to his right, and they pick up another run
Lakmal goes round the wicket to Munsey
Interesting. The umpires have called for a change of ball. Apparently it's got too slick on a damp outfield.
full outside off, slower ball. Slices the big hit over mid-off, doesn't middle it at all. The fielder turns around and runs towards the boundary to try and catch it, and can't get there. The batsmen think of a second run, but Munsey slips a little while completing the first, and they decide against it
67 off the last four, this is Andre Russell territory. Lakmal continues.
