Perera to Dhoni,
no run,
smacked away hard, square of the wicket, but straight to point
|
31.2 |
Perera to Dhoni,
OUT,
he has got him this time, the partnership stays at 99. Slightly loose shot, sees a short delivery, throws his bat at it, gets a thick outside edge - perhaps because it's too close to him - and Sangakkara takes a good diving catch to his right. What a first wicket for Perera

Perera to Yuvraj Singh,
no run,
big shout for lbw, not given, Yuvraj is lucky here, the pitches just inside the mat, straightens a touch, and was going onto hit the leg stump. To make it worse for Sri Lanka, they missed a direct hit that could have run Raina out, who was wanting a leg-bye but was sent back
