5.2 to AC Gilchrist, He Walks, confusion galore, a sweep with an inside edgfe to the pad and ball ballooned to leg for Sangakkara to hold and Gilchrist walked, did not look like the ump was going to raise the finger. 34/1
40.3 to GB Hogg, ball turned and he missed a forward push, Sangakkara does a smart stumping, tv called in for the decision. 158/6
