    3.6 down the track again, this time he doesn't get to the pitch, and chooses to go across the line. Ball doesn't turn, goes with the angle, beats his inside edge, and crashes into off stump 32/2

    2.4 another shortish slower ball, and this time Dilshan has pulled it straight to Hafeez at short midwicket. Didn't go to him as quickly as the previous chance, and he accepted it gratefully 24/1

    12.3 back of a length, angling in towards off stump, and Jayasuriya pops it straight to short extra cover. Makes room to slash it over the off side, doesn't time it well enough and gets no elevation 90/5

    8.4 bowled him, that is classic Afridi. How many times have we seen this? Skidded on with the angle, very quickly, and beat the inside edge and rolled off the back thigh into the stumps as de Silva stayed back in his crease to punch through the off side 61/3

    9.3 down the track, heaves across the line, and the ball skids through with the angle, goes past his inside edge, and Rizwan completes a sharp stumping after the ball slides past leg stump 64/4

    18.1 slower ball and this time Siriwardana can't clear the boundary. It was a little shorter than ideal to be hitting down the ground, and he ends up spooning it straight to long-off 145/6

    2.5 bouncer, goes for the hook, has to play it from over his right shoulder, and ends up top-edging high in the air. Easy catch for Kapugedera at deep midwicket 16/2

    5.3 back of a length, slower ball on off stump, punched to the right of point, and Hafeez left his crease at the non-striker's end, thinking it had beaten the fielder. It was Dilshan, though, and he's electric. Makes a diving stop and quickly fires a throw to the bowler's end, while he's still on his knees, and Perera deflected it onto the stumps and finds Hafeez short of his crease 33/3

    7.2 gone, Pakistan are five down! Came down the track again and again he shortened his length. It was quick, angling in, and a long way short of Malik. The previous ball seemed to confuse Malik, and he ended up playing inside the line. It turns sharply past his outside edge, and Kusal completes an easy stumping 40/5

    13.3 bowled him! It's a slower ball again, very full, and he took a step out of his crease and ended up yorking himself. Huge backlift, went for a whip over the leg side, ended up playing all around it 101/6

    14.1 and he's bowled him! Fired it flat, across the batsman, and Afridi cleared his front leg and looked to slog-sweep him into orbit. The ball slid on with the angle, beat his bat, and clipped the outside of off stump 107/7

    18.4 another twist. Late, late twist. Slower ball outside off, and Anwar, who looks to swing that over the leg side, ends up getting a thin outside edge through to the keeper 165/8

    18.6 full and wide, comes forward and pokes it down to long-off. They take on Thisara's arm, go for a second, and it's proved to be a suicidal second. Good throw, straight over the stumps, and Malinga has the bails off quickly to have the diving Tanvir out by a good six inches 167/9
