India vs Sri Lanka, 2nd Match at Dhaka, Jan 05 2010 - Match Result

full ball, lofted over wide long-on and it's a job well finished by Perera and Samaraweera

misses a short delivery, but it's a matter of time now

Zaheer takes a catch running back from mid-on, but neither Samaraweera nor Zaheer realise that there could be runs taken here. Samaraweera thinks Perera is out, Zaheer and Yuvraj celebrate. No one realises it's a free hit. Well done us

another no-ball, it's a dot, and will it be game over for off the next free hit?

straight loft, Kohli makes a diving save at long-on, and his trousers come off as he dives, and Yuvraj can't control his laughter. Perera has already hit the pants off the ball, now it's the fielders losing them

almost gets this through extra cover, Raina makes a diving save, and Samaraweera goes to his personal best in ODIs

slower ball, and Samaraweera joins the party, on the pads and flicked away over square leg, clean clean shot

bouncer, and he gets a dot ball, 11 off 3 overs now

hit in the ribs, what hit in the ribs? If you bowl a low fulltoss, it's still going, wide of mid-off, and Sri Lanka are almost there. Perera is playing a blinder

that's hit him in the ribs, Perera is looking to make room, Zaheer follows him with a short delivery and gets him flush

Perera you beauty, low fulltoss, and absolutely crashed through extra cover. What else does Zaheer have?

a rare dot ball from Perera, can't get under this yorker

super hundred for Samarweera, just opens the face gently and comes through for a single. Off comes the helmet, and he gesticulates towards the dressing room, a sort of forward defensive air shot, but left-handed

ho ho ho, Perera where have you been hiding? He is going to finish it off soon, gets a nice juicy fulltoss on the pads, and smacks it flat over the square-leg boundary. He is 20 off 5, strike-rate of 400

this is a big big delivery for Sri Lanka, length ball, on the pads, huge no-ball, and Perera flicks it off to the square-leg boundary

fulltoss, lofted over the on-side field, Gambhir runs around from deep square leg and keeps them down to two

two balls, two fours for Perera, what a player, Nehra misses the yorker by inches and he goes inside-out and pierces the off-side field from outside leg

another slower ball, this time he stands his ground and works it towards fine leg for one

he makes room again, and Nehra follows him with a slower delivery and beats him

have India missed a big opportunity, slower ball, Samaraweera hits straight to Jadeja at point, wants a run is sent back, gives up, Jadeja misses the only stump he can see by mere inches
