0.4 to E Lewis, Theekshana appeals and appeals, because he does not realize Lewis has been cleaned up! Fired in on a back of a length on middle and leg. Straightens off the pitch and Lewis gets squared up. The ball pings him on the back leg and then trickles onto the stumps. Would have probably been out lbw had the ball not rolled onto the stumps, but either way, this is a big, early breakthrough for the hosts!. 5/1
5.3 to BA King, knocks him over! Shortens the length slightly, and targets middle and off. King backs away, aiming to go inside-out. Gives himself too much room in the end and the ball straightening means that he only swishes at thin air. Hears the death rattle soon after, and Sri Lanka have their second!. 42/2
2027113.5033110
19.5 to R Shepherd, timmmberrrr! Slower ball again and this time, Thushara gets the length right. Just full enough to entice the slog but also short enough to not be in the slot. Shepherd swings and misses, and the ball crashes into middle stump. Bulls-eye from Thushara, but Shepherd has done his job!. 160/8

9.5 to SD Hope, has that carried, and has Nissanka taken it?! Fizzed through on a length on off. Seems to spin away just a shade and that, after the drift into Hope earlier, opens him up completely. He gets a healthy outside edge that flicks the keeper's gloves and is then snaffled up one-handed (with his right) by Nissanka. Inches off the turf, and that is an excellent bit of fielding. Sri Lanka are well and truly in the ascendancy now!. 55/4
15.3 to G Motie, googly on a fullish length on off. Drops on Motie late and then spins away, going past his agricultural swipe. Mendis takes off the bails too and seems quietly confident. Did Motie's back foot veer out of his crease? Oh, yes, it did. When the bails are dislodged, Motie's back foot is outside his crease, and Mendis' sharp work has broken this sparkling partnership!. 116/6
302117.0081100
8.6 to RL Chase, soft, soft dismissal! Darted in on a back of a length on middle and off. The ball sticks in the surface and stands up. Chase is way too early into his stroke and almost dangles his bat for the ball to pop up. Kamindu cannot believe his luck and completes the easiest of return catches!. 53/3
201417.0050100
11.1 to SE Rutherford, and Asalanka rattles Rutherford's stumps! Darted in on a length on middle and off. Keeps coming back in with the angle and keeps low too. Rutherford plays the trajectory, goes back and shapes for the cut. But that shot was never on. Rutherford finds that out the hard way, and WI are in all sorts now!. 62/5
201517.5070110
18.6 to R Powell, picked up, and taken eventually by Rajapaksa at deep mid wicket! And that brings the Dambulla crowd to life! Full again, slanting into the pads. Earlier in the over, that might have fetched Powell a boundary but with the sweeper on the fence, he perishes. The bat also turned upon impact and it was almost a leading edge. Rajapaksa did indulge in a little juggling act, but got the job done, most importantly!. 147/7

5.2 to P Nissanka, goes through Nissanka! Fired in fuller on middle and off. Nissanka plays the trajectory rather than the length and hangs back. The ball pitches, skids on with the angle and smashes into his pads even before the bat has come down. Ricochets onto the stumps thereafter, and there is pin-drop silence at the stadium, which tells you how big a wicket this is!. 60/1
