wide full toss, hit down the ground for one. Sri Lanka have won 2-0. Mendis is overjoyed, and why not

length ball outside off, heaved down to long-on for a single

gets an inside edge on a length ball, which goes past short fine for a couple

and there's the game for Sri Lanka! This is a low full toss, White makes room and goes for the six, all he manages is an inside edge onto the off stump

Hastings does his job by driving this half-volley to long-off. White on strike now

but it wouldn't have mattered if there were all 10 of them, White gets under this length ball and muscles it over wide long-on for six

another full toss, hit powerfully down the ground, but not straight enough of long-on. However, he comes back for two

full toss, heaves at it, gets a thick edge for a single to third man

another yorker full and wide, Hastings moves towards off, then backs away, but still doesn't manage contact with the ball

another yorker wide of off, Hastings has backed away, which makes it impossible for him to reach this. Smart bowling

yorker outside off, beats his jab, gets a precious dot through

a gentle full toss, White gives it an almighty heave, gets a thick edge to third man. They don't take the second despite the fumble in the deep. Called no-ball for height. identical height to the Jayawardene faced earlier. At least they are consistent

carrom ball again, worked away off the pads for a single. White keeps strike, but what about Mendis? 4-1-16-6, including a double-wicket maiden! best figures in T20Is

the carrom ball, White comes down the crease, pushes this towards long-on with soft hands, always wants the second, and comes for it. Jayawardene chases from midwicket, puts the slide in, the throw is right beside the stumps, and O'Keefe's dive ends inches short. This is top stuff from Sri Lanka

the googly, O'Keefe goes deep into the crease and pushes this down to long-on

Six and out! Mendis becomes the first bowler to take six wickets in a T20I innings. Carrom ball this time, short and asking to be pulled, Johnson tries the shot, but this one deviates just a little to beat the bat, and hit the stumps

the googly, which Johnson reads and cuts this towards sweeper-cover. Chandimal over-runs it initially, but makes a desperate dive to prevent this boundary

That's a valuable shot for four byes! Johnson looks for the reverse-lap, blind-sighting Sangakkara, the ball beats both the batsman and the keeper. this would have been a wide had Johnson not tried the reverse shot

the slog-sweep from White, beats deep midwicket. White keeps Australia alive
