Over 2.3  Mohammed Shami bowls a good length delivery to Dimuth Karunaratne, out Caught by Saha!! Tharanga was cramped for room as he pushed at that, gets a big edge and Saha does the rest.

Over 4.3  Mohammed Shami bowls a good length delivery to Dimuth Karunaratne, out Caught by Saha!! The angle lured Karunaratne to have a go at it, hard hands and he feeds a healthy edge through to the keeper. 

Over 8.5  Mohammed Shami bowls a good length delivery to LD Chandimal, out Kusal Mendis Run Out!! Chandimal shuffled across and flicked this to the right of mid-on where Ashwin dived full length and made a fine stop.Kusal Mendis finds himself in the middle of the pitch after his captain refuses lately for a quick single.Ashwin had time to gather the ball and had a hit-and-miss moment at the non-striker's end. Kuldeep Yadav at short cover was sharp enough to spot the opportunity

Over 9.3 Hardik Pandya bowls a good length delivery to AD Mathews, out Lbw!!. A nip-backer, curves in and hits Mathews around the knee roll after he missed the tuck. On replays it looks to be sliding down or worse case umpire's call.

Over 20.3 Kuldeep Yadav bowls a tossed up delivery to DPDN Dickwella, out Stumped!! Kuldeep Yadav has his revenge. Wrong 'un sneaks through...in between bat and pad and Saha does the rest

Over 22.1 Kuldeep Yadav bowls a tossed up delivery to Dilruwan Perera,  out Caught by Hardik Pandya!! A rank long-hop has been hit straight to the man at deep mid-wicket. That sort of sums up the sorry state in which Sri Lanka find themselves. 

Over 31.3 Ravichandran Ashwin bowls a tossed up delivery to LD Chandimal,  out Caught by Rahul!!  Chandimal goes on to the bback foot and trying to work it around the corner with the bounce Ashwin gets is only asking for trouble. Thick inside edge onto pad, pops up for an easy catch.

Over 32.2 Kuldeep Yadav bowls a quicker arm ball to Malinda Pushpakumara, out Bowled! Pushpakumara shimmies out to york himself and the ball slaps middle stump. 

Over 36.5 Kuldeep Yadav bowls a tossed up delivery to Vishwa Fernando,  out Bowled!!  Fernando wasn't picking him right through the over, doesn't pick this one either, and the ball turns back in and deflects off the pad onto the stumps.

Over 37.4 Ravichandran Ashwin bowls a tossed up delivery to Lakshan Sandakan, out Caught by Dhawan!! Goes onto the back foot and swings hard for the pull, but gets an under-edge which deflects off the thigh straight to leg-gully.
