Titans vs Aura, Qualifier 1 at Colombo, LPL, Aug 17 2023 - Match Result

a leg bye does it. This is length on the pads, goes off towards fine leg, and they scamper the match-winning single.

umm, what's happening? This is a length ball outsid e off, clubbed to point, straight to the fielder. Ross wants the single but is sent back by DDS

Ross starts with a dot, a length ball, defended back to the bowler.

he's out! All he needed to do was miss a fielder, and he has clubbed a slower-ball full toss back to the bowler. Shanaka has caught that easily in his follow through.

full - attempted yorker - on about off stump. Clipped through midwicket for a nicely-hustled two

length on the pads, turned around the corner to to fine leg for four

length ball wide of off, chopped to cover

Kusal Perera has played a gem here and he's putting the finishing touches on this chase for Aura. This is a length ball on the stumps. Not a ball that deserves to be hit, way over the deep midwicket boundary, but such is the bat speed and the power that Perera's wrists generate, that it sails way over the rope

they're doing it easy. This is full on the stumps, pushed through flicked straight of deep midwicket for another comfortable two

full outside off, driven nicely wide of deep cover, and they scamper two. Perera is quick between the wickets

fired in, stock ball, pitching outside off and straightening. Defended back down the pitch.

big appeal from Shamsi! Did that hit the pad? Shamsi reviews. That was a length ball, pitching on the stumps and straightening. And that's a great review from Shamsi. As Mendis had tried to sweep it, there was some doubt as to whether that had struck some pard of the bat or glove, but he'd missed it by a distance in the end. Hits him in front of middle. The ball is going on to hit middle, about halfway out. On the review it looks PLUMB. Mendis knew it and was halfway to the dressing room before the decision even came in.

flat, on off stump, chopped to deep cover for a single

tries to smack this one over leg again, but misses, as Shamsi has dipped and bounced this.

follows it up with a reverse-swept four. Gets down again, doesn't quite get all of it, but it is just a one-bounce four over fine leg. Easy

KJP goes for the big one and NAILS IT. This is a stock ball, pitched outside off, floated up. KJP goes down and slog sweeps that way into the stands beyond cow corner.

skidded through very quickly from Shakib, targeting those stumps, looking for an lbw perhaps. Mendis just about gets his hands across and it hits him in the bat handle/gloves. Clever bowling. Good over for Titans.

pushed through full outside off, defended back from the crease

flat, length ball outside off, deflected just fine of short third, and they scamper one

full toss, and KJP misses out. Unambitiously flicks this to short midwicket
