4.6 to Tanzid Hasan, Thushara gets the last laugh! Looks for the yorker again, this is very low full-toss, and Tanzid looks to whip it away, but it somehow pops up off the toe end of the bat, straight to the man at midwicket. 46/1

8.4 to Parvez Hossain Emon, Sri Lanka get the big fish, it's Emon! This one is on a good length on off, and Emon looks to strike this down the ground, through the line. But he only manages to get under it. It goes high into the Kandy sky, as Shanaka settles under it at long-on and makes this catch look easy. 67/3 18.3 to Mehidy Hasan Miraz, caught at cover. Miraz didn't quite get his offside game going in this innings. This is a fast ball at the toes -almost a yorker. Mehidy goes inside out but can't get the elevation. Asalanka takes a nice overhead catch as he backpedals. 135/5

12.3 to Towhid Hridoy, edged and taken. Shanaka is having a great return with the ball. This was that line in the channel that's been bothering Hridoy, but it was on the shorter side of a good length. Where Shanaka had previousy beaten his inside edge, he hangs this one out a little wider, Hridoy slashes at this ball, which is about 30cm outside off, and sends an outside edge to Kusal Mendis who completes a nice diving catch. 89/4
Jeffrey Vandersay	4	0	25	1	6.25	9	1	1	0	0
7.6 to Litton Das, This time he gets his man! Another googly, and Litton lunges forward to attempt the sweep. This sneaks under his bat and has struck him in front of middle and off. Bangladesh review. Is this one bouncing over as well? Nope! Impact is umpire's call and it's crashing into off stump.. 65/2

17.2 to BKG Mendis, Kusal can't see it through! Brilliant grab to end this innings too! Good length ball on the pads, but perhaps it straightens a touch off the surface. It means Kusal gets a leading edge looking to work it onside. But even then there's a ton of work to be done as this is looping over Shamim at short extra for all money. But he leaps with his left hand and it sticks. Kusal walks off to a raucous ovation. 148/3

4.4 to P Nissanka, holes out to mid on and finally Bangladesh can breathe a little. This was floated up bravely outside off, and Nissanka tries to slash it inside out. Mis-hits it badly after Miraz beats him with flight though, and Rishad Hossain gets under the high chance. 78/1 See all photos

12.5 to MDKJ Perera, Top edged and gone! It's the sweep that's done Perera in here. Looks to take it on from around off, but this one I think was the googly, which gets a little extra bounce. Induces the top edge and Litton calls it early, runs towards square leg and takes it easily. 120/2
