31.1 to BJ Curran, And he strikes straight away! Massive wicket for Sri Lanka, it's Curran! This was on a back of a length around middle and leg. Perhaps got a little cramped on the pull, and maybe this skid on a bit. Ends up splicing it, and chipping it gently to midwicket. Curran goes for 79 off 95. 150/3 31.6 to SC Williams, Stumps flattened! Perfect riposte from Asitha! This was short of a length just around off, perhaps it keeps marginally low and doesn't bounce as much as Williams is expecting. He looks for the pull and only manages to drag this on to his off stump. Double wicket over for Asitha. 155/4 | ||||||||||

37.1 to T Munyonga, Madushanka strikes for the first time today, and what a time to do it! This was angled in from wide of the crease, angled in on a good length towards off. Munyonga gets on one knee and looks for the premeditated slog into cow corner, but he makes no connection as the stumps are disturbed. 176/5 | ||||||||||
| 10 | 0 | 52 | 3 | 5.20 | 34 | 5 | 1 | 2 | 0 | |
9.4 to BJ Bennett, sends leg stump flying. Chameera gets a wicket against play, and that's a spectacular way to get it. This is full, maybe nipping a touch away off the deck, and Bennett misses completely with a leg flick, allowing this ball to make a mess of the stumps. Both middle and leg are out of the ground.. 55/1 47.5 to C Madande, takes out the base of leg! Madande jumps across to the offside again expecting another wide yorker, but Chameera sees this and sends one straight at leg stump instead. This is a lovely bit of pinpoint bowling. Madande couldn't do much to this ball given how far outside off stump he ended up standing. 252/6 49.1 to B Evans, slower ball, looped up gently into the offside, and Pavan Rathnayake (sub fielder) gets under that one to pouch it safely. Evans didn't pick the change of pace at all. Was through the shot very early and either of two fielders could have got under that. 264/7 | ||||||||||

23.4 to BRM Taylor, And Sri Lanka hold on to one finally! Taylor's pained innings comes to an end. It had to be on him to up the ante here, having taken up so many deliveries, and here he tries to scoop one from outside off past short fine. It's in the air, but not beyond short fine who dives low to his right to hold on to a good catch. Zimbabwe lose their second. 116/2 | ||||||||||

44.3 to P Nissanka, holes out to deep midwicket against a shortish ball. Nissanka might have middled that pull but this is a big outfield, and Wessley Madhevere is out there. He almost overruns it, but slows down and gets his mitts on it at the last moment. Excellent outfield catch, to end what was another wonderful Nissanka innings. This gives Zimbabwe a much-needed opening though.. 236/4 48.5 to KIC Asalanka, he's holed out to deep midwicket running in. This was another slower ball, into the body, which Asalanka tried to bash over cow corner - one of his favoured shots. Badly mis-hits it though, and the advancing fielder takes the catch on the edge of the circle. 272/5 | ||||||||||

10.4 to MNK Fernando, Right through him! Nuwanidu looked a little slow on this one, but Evans is rightfully pumped! It was full and straight, and maybe nipped in a touch. Nuwanidu looks to drive but gets nowhere near it and the stumps are flattened. 48/1 14.2 to BKG Mendis, Evans has his second! The man was stationed at deep backward square for just this shot, and Kusal looks to take him on. It's not struck as well as he would have liked though, as the man moves quickly to his right and takes a good catch on the move a couple of metres in from the ropes. 68/2 | ||||||||||

30.1 to S Samarawickrama, down the track and he hits this hiiiiiigh into the hands of Sikandar Raza at deep midwicket to give Masuku his first international wicket. His teammates are delighted for him. Sadeera was desperate to improve that strike rate, and he just played the wrong shot to what was a length ball, thumping it too high. Raza had a lot of work to do, but made the ground and made a tough catch look easy.. 146/3 | ||||||||||
