10.6 to WU Tharanga, Bond strikes, fuller outside the off stump and bit wide, Tharanga goes after it, the edge flies towards the slips, Fleming at first slip jumps up stretching his hand, comes out his hand on the first attempt, then as the ball was going down, Fleming catches it with four fingers around the ball to take a super catch.. 44/2 14.3 to CK Kapugedera, Kapugedera is interested this time and he offers a simple catch to Oram at gully. Bond bowled that short of a length and wide outside off, Kaupgedera tried to steer it to third man but couldn't keep it down, Sri Lanka are four down and sinking fast. 46/4 14.6 to LPC Silva, and he does indeed bag a pair on debut. You've got to feel for the young fella but that was a superb slower ball from Bond. Chamara Silva was foxed and played the off-drive far too early, he lobs a dolly of a catch to Vettori at mid-off. 46/5 32.5 to MF Maharoof, lovely bowling from Bond, 137 km/h, excellent delivery outside the off stump, Maharoof half forward plays at it, moves away slightly to take the outside edge through to McCullum, who takes an easy catch.. 99/8 | ||||||||||

13.2 to DPMD Jayawardene, fuller outside the off stump, this time Franklin pushed it wide, Jayawardene looking to drive through the off side but he can only get an edge which flies to the right of Fleming, who takes the catch comfortably, made it look easy, excellent bowling from the Kiwis. 45/3 44.6 to SL Malinga, now he's gone! the length and line was excellent this time, pitches on a good length and the line is such that Malinga is in two minds whether to play or leave it, he decides to pull out of the shot at the last minute and feathered a nick to McCullum. 143/9 | ||||||||||

15.4 to CD Cumming, Vaas strikes! short of a good length delivery, perfect line and lenght and Cumming had no option but to play at it - feather edge straight to the keeper. 66/2 17.1 to SP Fleming, game on! good length delivery on the middle and leg stump line, hint of swing there - Fleming pushes forward to defend but fails to make contact and the ball hits the pad right in front of the stumps. Lound appeal and up goes the finger. 66/3 | ||||||||||

12.5 to JM How, that's plumb in front! Murali tosses it up on off stump, How moves across and plays back, the offspinner hits him in front of middle and leg and he was playing right back in his crease. 58/1 18.1 to MS Sinclair, Sinclair goes! flat delivery on the stumps - when in doubt sweep and that's precisely what Sinclair did but he failed to keep it down. Sangakkara at square leg dived across to his left and took it with both hands. This game is wide open now. 68/4 30.3 to NJ Astle, Astle goes off the first ball he faces after tea, that one pitched around off stump and straightened, Astle played forward but down the wrong line, he got hit in front of middle and that was pretty plumb, almost identical to his dismissal in the first innings. 103/5 | ||||||||||
