Pakistan vs Sri Lanka, 3rd ODI - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Shaheen Afridi to Pawan Rathnayake, out Pawan Rathnayake Run Out!! 1 run completed. Heaves the full toss to the left of deep square and Rathnayake was always going for the second. He wanted to keep strike, but no dice! Ayub rushes towards the ball and throws it on the bounce to the keeper, catching Rathnayake inches short of his crease. Pawan Rathnayake run out (Saim Ayub/Haseebullah Khan) 32(37) [4s-2 6s-1]

Haris Rauf to Pramod, out Caught by Haseebullah Khan!! Haris Rauf has the last laugh. Pacy short ball aiming for the nose, Madushan takes his eyes off the ball and looks to fend with high elbow. The ball deflects off the gloves to the right of the keeper. Not a strong appeal from Pakistan, but the keeper was convinced that it was off the bat/glove. Pramod c Haseebullah Khan b Haris Rauf 7(11) [4s-1]

Haris Rauf to Pawan Rathnayake, SIX, stays leg-side of a 143ks length ball and creams it inside out over extra cover for a 85-metre maximum. That is some shot from Pavan Rathnayake...

Shaheen Afridi to Theekshana, out Lbw!! Theekshana hobbles off to the pavilion. It's a reverse swinging low full toss that hits Theekshana flush on the front boot. He tried to flick, but no dice! The umpire Rashid Riaz took his time before raising his finger and replays suggest that it would have brushed the outside part of leg stump. Theekshana lbw b Shaheen Afridi 7(14)

Faisal Akram to Pawan Rathnayake, FOUR, excellent shot! Comes dancing down the wicket, close to the pitch of the delivery and blazes the drive all along the ground through extra cover

Faisal Akram to Samarawickrama, out Bowled!! Cleans him up with an absolute corker. Tosses the ball just outside off and gets it to dip and rip off the surface. The ball spins sharply and sneaks through the bat-pad gate to uproot the leg peg. Samarawickrama b Faisal Akram 48(65) [4s-2]

Faheem Ashraf to Samarawickrama, FOUR, short outside off, Samarawickrama slashes hard and semds the outside edge wide of the keeper to his right. No-one at third man and that looked like a deliberate shot from Samarawickrama

Kamindu Mendis c and b Faisal Akram 10(9) [4s-2]

Mohammad Wasim to Kamil Mishara, out Caught by Haseebullah Khan!! Edged and taken! Short of a length delivery outside off, Kamil Mishara opens the bat face and tries to run this down to third man. A thick outside edge is induced and the keeper completes the formalities. He has gotten off to starts in all games, but hasn't been able to convert those starts to formidable scores. That has been Mishara's problem in ODIs so far.. Kamil Mishara c Haseebullah Khan b Mohammad Wasim 29(30) [4s-5]
