ICC World Twenty20 - 1st semi final

England v Sri Lanka

England won by 7 wickets (with 24 balls remaining)

T20I no. 175 | 2010 season
Played at Beausejour Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia (neutral venue)
13 May 2010 (20-over match)


Sri Lanka innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
DPMD Jayawardene	c †Kieswetter b Broad	10	20	9	1	0	111.11
4.1 85.0 mph, dream start from Broad! He gets the key wicket! Jayawardene falls, just nicking a rising delivery from outside off stump through to the keeper, real Test-style dismissal there. England all over this at the moment 26/3
ST Jayasuriya	c Collingwood b Sidebottom	1	5	4	0	0	25.00
1.1 84.1 mph, Sidebottom strikes straight away! Jayasuriya departs, very sad to see a great player reduced to this. Pitched up, fraction of movement away, regulation outside edge and neatly pouched at second slip 7/1
TM Dilshan	c Wright b Bresnan	9	7	8	2	0	112.50
2.6 85.6 mph, gone this time! Well, Dilshan was playing a shot a ball, and it has not come off. Short again, he tried to hook it off the front foot, but only managed a looping top edge, Wright hustled in from the deep square boundary and dived forward to take a smart catch 20/2
KC Sangakkara*†	c Pietersen b Swann	16	24	19	2	0	84.21
8.6 54.7 mph, big trouble now for Sri Lanka! Sangakkara departs! Swann is creating all sorts of problems out there, another flighted delivery, Sangakkara edged down the crease and chipped a drive down to long off, didn't get enough of it, Pietersen skirts around and collects the catch 47/4
AD Mathews	run out (Collingwood/†Kieswetter)	58	68	45	3	1	128.88
19.5 from Sidebottom, another good ball, no mistake yet from Sidebottom, Mathews shoves it down to long on, comes back for a second, but he looks out of gas, the throw comes in one bounce, and beats Mathews 126/6
CK Kapugedera	c Bresnan b Broad	16	30	27	2	0	59.25
16.3 76.2 mph, well that was coming. A touch fuller, Kapugedera cleared his front leg away and mowed at the ball, couldn't get much of it and it goes straight to Bresnan at mid off 93/5
NLTC Perera	not out	7	19	8	0	0	87.50

CU Jayasinghe	not out	2	1	1	0	0	200.00

Extras	(lb 1, w 7, nb 1)	9

Total	(6 wickets; 20 overs; 87 mins)	128	(6.40 runs per over)

Did not bat S Randiv, SL Malinga, BAW Mendis

Fall of wickets 1-7 (Jayasuriya, 1.1 ov), 2-20 (Dilshan, 2.6 ov), 3-26 (Jayawardene, 4.1 ov), 4-47 (Sangakkara, 8.6 ov), 5-93 (Kapugedera, 16.3 ov), 6-126 (Mathews, 19.5 ov)


Bowling	O	M	R	W	Econ
TT Bresnan	4	0	41	1	10.25	(4w)
2.6 to Dilshan, 85.6 mph, gone this time! Well, Dilshan was playing a shot a ball, and it has not come off. Short again, he tried to hook it off the front foot, but only managed a looping top edge, Wright hustled in from the deep square boundary and dived forward to take a smart catch 20/2
RJ Sidebottom	4	0	24	1	6.00	(1w)
1.1 to Jayasuriya, 84.1 mph, Sidebottom strikes straight away! Jayasuriya departs, very sad to see a great player reduced to this. Pitched up, fraction of movement away, regulation outside edge and neatly pouched at second slip 7/1
SCJ Broad	4	0	21	2	5.25	(1nb, 2w)
4.1 to Jayawardene, 85.0 mph, dream start from Broad! He gets the key wicket! Jayawardene falls, just nicking a rising delivery from outside off stump through to the keeper, real Test-style dismissal there. England all over this at the moment 26/3 16.3 to Kapugedera, 76.2 mph, well that was coming.

MH Yardy	4	0	21	0	5.25


England innings (target: 129 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
C Kieswetter†	b Malinga	39	36	29	5	2	134.48
8.1 77.8 mph, and he's their man, as Kieswetter falls! Searing, inswinging yorker from Malinga splays the stumps. Kieswetter had picked the fuller length and shaped to drive to long on, but that was simply too good for him, and Malinga has made a mess of his stumps. 68/1
MJ Lumb	b Perera	33	44	26	4	1	126.92
9.4 84.4 mph, well, he's just got a little too cute and inventive there. He'd already taken nine from the over, but Lumb shuffles right across to off, exposing all three stumps, and Perera zoned in on leg stump to rattle his timber. They need fives an over, but Lumb got a little greedy there and has paid the price 80/2
KP Pietersen	not out	42	33	26	3	2	161.53

PD Collingwood*	c †Sangakkara b Perera	10	14	13	0	0	76.92
14.1 70.0 mph, Collingwood falls, but that's probably come too late for Sri Lanka. He was looking for the big shot on the leg side, but the bottom hand came through just a little too strongly as he swished across the line. A top edge sent the ball straight up in the air, and Sangakkara behind the stumps called for it 113/3
EJG Morgan	not out	2	6	2	0	0	100.00

Extras	(lb 4, w 2)	6
