0.5 to P Nissanka, an appeal for caught behind! The umpires want to check this carried. Carey took it diving to his right. Australia are confident. Full, angled across, enticing the drive, Ultraedge shows a clear spike. It carried to Carey easily. Johnson strikes. 4/1
6.2 to PHKD Mendis, clipped straight to forward square! JFM takes a sharp chance. Full on leg, 138kph, he clips in the air but at a catching height to Fraser-McGurk who dives to his left and plucks it with two hands. He doesn't drop those. 31/4
601322.16261000
1.6 to WIA Fernando, caught at second slip! Back of a length, some shape away, he wafts at it with no footwork, gets a thick edge and it flies Smith's left at second and he holds it well. He's in good catching form. 6/2
5.2 to BKG Mendis, edged to first slip! Hardie is all over the right-handers. Back of a length, shaping away, again there is no footwork as he pokes at it and gets a thick edge that Matt Short pouches with ease. 30/3
906136.77347311
14.3 to J Liyanage, edged and taken by Smith! He thinks it's out. The umpires want to check if it carried. Taken cleanly. Excellent catch by Smith low infront of his right foot. Good length, wide of off, he pushes at it and gets a thick edge that flies low and Smith gets his hands under it easily. 55/5
45.3 to KIC Asalanka, holes out to deep midwicket! A gem of an innings comes to an end. Low full toss on middle, almost a yorker, he tries to get under it but gets it low off the toe of the bat and picks out deep midwicket! Fraser-McGurk takes the catch. 214/9
45.6 to AM Fernando, edged and taken by Carey! Good length, cross seam on middle, he moves leg side to defend and gets a thick edge which Carey pouches moving to his left. 214/10
922322.55392010
30.1 to PW Hasaranga, good nut! Full at off stump, nips away off the seam, Hasaranga's feet stuck in the crease. Straightens to take off stump. Ellis has deserved that. 133/7
32.2 to M Theekshana, edged, given! Theekshana has called for the review. Australia were convinced. Short of a length outside off, he pokes at it away from the body, and there's a spike. Theekshana not convinced. He's taking his time to walk off. The spike was on the edge of the frame, but very clear. 135/8

903914.33344100
25.5 to DN Wellalage, what a catch! Wow, a stunner from Smith at slip. What a tour he's having. Wellalage pushing forward outside off, the edge goes fine, to Smith's right, he throws out the hand and plucks it as he dives. Another for the highlights reel.. 122/6

0.2 to MW Short, huge appeal, and given lbw! Good length, nipped back, Short beaten on the drive. They discuss a review and run out of time before walking off. This actually straighten after pitching. Struck quite high on the back leg. Fraser-McGurk didn't provide much support for a review. And that was a good call, three reds. 0/1
2.4 to J Fraser-McGurk, leading edge, taken! Terrific catch. Short of a length, Fraser-McGurk using his feet again, looks to play to the on side, bat face slices across the ball and the leading edge goes low to Fernando. 7/2
401203.00192000
9.514044.06393030
5.3 to C Connolly, misses a sweep, and given! Connolly discusses the review with Smith but then walks off. Fuller at the stumps, goes down on the back knee for a slog sweep, straightens a little, I think, towards off stump. Umpire's call on hitting off stump. 18/3
17.3 to M Labuschagne, given lbw! Labuschagne yells in frustration and reviews. Not sure whether he was yelling at himself or not. He tries to lap sweep again a ball skidding into the line of off. No bat involved. Ball tracking says impact Umpire's call and hitting off stump. That's out. Australia do keep the review.. 83/5
25.6 to SA Abbott, leading edge back to Theekshana! Caught and bowled. Carrom ball flicked out of the fingers, angled down leg, he closed the face too soon trying to work square and it lobs back to the bowler. Simple catch. 126/7
33.5 to SH Johnson, an appeal for lbw given not out. Sri Lanka review. Very full on leg, sliding onto hit the back pad. He hit his back pad but not the ball. Ball tracking has it pitching in line, hitting in line and hitting leg! Game over. 165/10
703324.71233020
9.1 to SPD Smith, strikes first ball! Huge moment. Round the wicket, full and straight, Smith goes for a straight slog sweep, plays all over it. Gets castled. Strange shot from Smith. Clearly wanted to try and be aggressive. 31/4
26.4 to NT Ellis, clean bowled! Ellis' ambition outruns his skill level. He tries to reverse sweep a ball drifting into middle and sliding on, he misses and it crashes into leg. 127/8
604717.83156100
30.6 to AM Hardie, plumb lbw! Hardie was going to walk off but he uses a review because they're available. He knows he's out. A leg break pitching on middle and straightening down the line. He tries to sweep and misses and is hit on the back leg infront of middle. Ball tracking says it is smashing middle two-thirds of the way up. 145/9
20512.5070000
18.2 to AT Carey, holes out to long-off! Brilliant bowling. Flighted slower and higher outside off, inviting Carey to loft down the ground, he slices it off the toe to long-off and it's an easy catch for Nissanka. 85/6
