- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.1 short, cut and caught! Samaraweera looked a tad edgy and gave himself some room to cut it over the in-field, but does not get sufficient elevation there, caught easily in the covers 1/14.3 gone, stumped this time! This was outside the off, he went down the track again, but the ball wasn't there to hit and he did not get close to getting a bat, misses it and the bails are whipped by the keeper 26/29.3 gone, undone by the off-spin, stumped! The batsman gave his hand away too soon, came down the pitch before Mendis had released the ball and he shortened the length, spun it away and the batsman missed, the keeper did not and the bails are whipped away for the second time by Rahim. 58/314.2 gone, snick, caught! It was so short that it should have been sent away packing, but it also meant that Misbah went hard at it and only managed an outside edge, Mushfiqur takes a smart catch and Mendis has his revenge after being hit for those two early boundaries by the same batsman 92/510.5 short, wide and cut in front of cover to get out! Not too often will you such a dismissal, it was short and wide and he has cut it to short-cover, the ball probably did not come on too well and Styris was early in his stroke. I smell trouble for the batting side. 61/419.1 that was another across the line swipe attempted but this time he does not get the direction he needed, gets more of a leading edge and it goes really high, spoons up in the air for the long-off fielder to pouch it safely 149/619.3 slower and timber! It was on the middle stump and an off-cutter, he had moved over to the off side and his bat did not come down in the same direction where the ball was headed, bat missed, stumps hit 150/7Extras3 (lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL159/7 (20 Overs, RR: 7.95)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (TT Samaraweera, 1.1 ov), 2-26 (JK Silva, 4.3 ov), 3-58 (KDK Vithanage, 9.3 ov), 4-61 (SB Styris, 10.5 ov), 5-92 (Misbah-ul-Haq, 14.2 ov), 6-149 (NLTC Perera, 19.1 ov), 7-150 (KS Lokuarachchi, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.4 finally a breakthrough, goes for a sweep shot, misses and is declared out by the umpire, lbw, and of a potentially match-winning innings from Nazir 85/112.3 out this time? Did he stump him this time? Third ump called into action! He went down the track, missed the ball and it sneaks through his defences, it clips the leg stump bail on its way through to the keeper, who collects it well and whips the stumps, but the remaining bail does not fall off. Not that it would have mattered, he was already bowled! 110/216 from round the stump and the ball angles into the batsman, who pushes it to short mid-wicket, Misbah ul Haq picks it up and throws the stumps down at the non-striker's end. Third umpire sends him packing for being way out of the crease there! 138/2Extras6 (lb 2, nb 2, w 2)TOTAL160/3 (19.3 Overs, RR: 8.20)Fall of wickets: 1-85 (Imran Nazir, 8.4 ov), 2-110 (Ahmed Shehzad, 12.3 ov), 3-138 (AK Perera, 15.6 ov)
