Dambulla vs Warriors, 2nd Match at Colombo, LPL, Dec 06 2021 - Ball by Ball Commentary

digs it into the pitch again, but tighter into off stump this time. Kumara can't connect

short ball, fired too wide down the offside

full on the stumps, whipped out toward deep midwicket for a single

pummelled over deep midwicket. This is length on the stumps and its absolutely mowed over deep midwicket. Fernando thinks he's in business again, but that' just hit a little too well and carries too far over the rope.

attempted bouncer, too short again

fullish ball, on the stumps, lifted over the legside into the deep midwicket region where Nuwanidu Fernando is into the action again

slower ball again, the batter misses

dear sweet lord that's a catch! This is a short, slower delivery, mis-hit towards deep midwicket and Nuwanidu Fernando pulls off what is going to be tough to beat as the catch of the LPL. Sprints full-tilt towards the ball, throws himself in the air as if he's been shot out of a cannon, intercepts the ball inches from the ground, fully in the air, and holds on to hit as he hits the ground. Outstanding.

full on the stumps, clipped to deep square leg

slower ball on the stumps, but Jayaratne has picked it and picked the bones out of it. Waited for hit, cleared his front leg, and larruped it hiigh over deep midwicket for six.

length ball, angled from wide of the crease into the stumps, bashed down the ground to long on

shortish ball, pulled away to deep square leg

length delivery, swiped away to deep midwicket, far enough from the fielder to allow a couple

aaaalmost carries to long on - could the fielder have done better. This is a back of a length ball on the stumps. Batter hits it high towards long on, but the fielder doesn't run in hard enough, and just fields it on the bounce

a single down to long on

slower ball, very full, just outside off stump. Colombage tries to slam this down the ground but misses

makes room again, but Karunaratne follows him with a length ball. Batter shovels it towards long on and they sprint two

bouncer, but on this exceptionally bouncy Khettarama pitch, it's too short and over the head. Dickwella does well to pull that in with a big leap

another flat-batted shot, this time past mid off. Length on the stumps, again Colombage makes room. It was in the air and Imran Tahir goes for the catch, but can't quite reach. It skips past him and on to the rope

length ball on the stumps. Colombage makes room and tennis-forehands this back over the bowler's head for four
