Australia vs Sri Lanka, 3rd Match at Perth, , Feb 10 2012 - Match Result

but he has holed out, oh dear, heartbreak for Angelo and Sri Lanka, Australia and Starc can breathe now, makes room for the short ball, winds up and has a crack at it, but can only spoon it in the air as far as long on, Australia get together, they will be a relieved lot

low full toss, he somehow drops it towards point, and they take on the throw, direct hit and he was gone, Ponting has his hands on his head, Angelo is back on strike

swings a full delivery on the leg side, gets only one this time to deep square leg

Angelo has put Sri Lanka on the brink, what a stroke under pressure, takes on the pitched up ball, gets front leg out of the way and mows it over long off, punches the air as soon as he sees the ball sail away

Angelo gets the boundary off the first ball, hammers the shortish delivery through midwicket, man in the deep puts in the dive but touches the ropes

whips a back of a length ball through midwicket, comes back for the second, Angelo is on strike for the last over with 18 needed

swing and a miss from Prasad as he steps out of his crease

slower one dabbed to backward point for one

smashes the short of a length ball through vacant midwicket for a couple

gets across and nudges on the leg side to bring Angelo on strike

scooped over the bowler towards the straight boundary, excellent work from long off running across, his back leg is over the rope but not touching the ground, his front leg is near the rope but not touching it as he saves a couple of runs

ten for the over with a single down to third man

make it nine for the over now, Prasad stands in the crease and hammers a length ball straight past the umpire for four

good stop from Clarke at midwicket on the edge of the circle, Angelo takes the single to get to his 50, another fighting innings after he has been left to salvage matters with the tail

Prasad pulls, pulls well, it requires a dive by the chasing fielder near the rope to save the boundary, they have taken three, Angelo is back on strike, can Sri Lanka pull something off?

slaps a wide delivery to extra cover, Warner has a go at the stumps, misses, the non-striker was not even in the frame

digs out a full delivery back to the bowler

Prasad survives the last ball of the over, he hops and brings down the short of a length ball

connects with the cut this time, but cannot beat backward point

he gets the short ball away, it was angled in on leg, he got enough on it to help it over and wide of short fine leg
