Hayden Kerr to Miller, out Caught by (sub)Janith Liyanage!! And he's gone now! 126.9kph, low full toss outside off, Miller goes hard on the drive, doesn't play it along the ground and Liyanaga - the sub fielder - at extra cover takes a sharp catch. He over-ran to his left but did well to hold onto it. Miller c (sub)Janith Liyanage b Hayden Kerr 14(18) [4s-1]

Binura Fernando to Viljoen, out Bowled!! Binura Fernando has his man. Three dots followed by a wicket! 112.9kph, slower ball on a fullish length, Viljoen looks to swing it over on-side and he gets an inside edge. The ball smashes into the sticks. Viljoen b Binura Fernando 4(6) [4s-1]

Dahani to Viljoen, no run, very full on leg, Viljoen misses the flick to wear it on the pad. Dambulla send it upstairs. Reckon that's going down with the angle. Clearly no bat. Over to ball-tracking and it's missing leg! DA lose a review...

Dahani to Viljoen, FOUR, off-speed full toss, Viljoen was probably expecting a short ball. He was hopping but he did well to open his bat-face and guide it between short third man and backward point

Dahani to Perera, out Perera Run Out!! Dahani has his revenge! He slips in a yorker, Perera misses the flick and the ball rolls back towards the bowler off his pad. Dahani runs in, picks the ball and scores a direct-hit at the keeper's end to catch the Kings' captain well short of his ground. Perera wandered out of his crease not knowing where the ball was and was almost halfway down. Dahani, jokingly, asks his captain to review it for lbw. That was clearly heading down leg anyway. Perera run out (Dahani) 6(5) [4s-1]

Dahani to Miller, FOUR, length ball wide of off, Miller slashes hard and gets an under-edge that goes square of the short third man fielder. Much-needed boundary for the Kings

Noor Ahmad to Asalanka, out Caught by Dhananjaya!! Gone! 94.2kph, full delivery, Asalanka comes down the track to loft it after getting close to the pitch of the wrong 'un. More height than distance and DDS calmly gobbles it up at long-on. Asalanka c Dhananjaya b Noor Ahmad 56(52) [4s-5 6s-1]

Binura Fernando to Asalanka, FOUR, fifty for Asalanka! 112.6kph, slower ball into the pitch, Asalanka gets inside the line and hooks it over the jumping short fine leg fielder. 46 balls to reach the landmark, can he up the ante?

Binura Fernando to Asalanka, FOUR, 126.7kph, full delivery outside off, Asalanka stays leg-side and throws his arms at it to loft it over extra cover for a one-bounce four
13.2
Noor Ahmad to Asalanka, 2 runs, full in length and Asalanka gets down to slogsweep. Miscues and the ball goes a long way up in the air. Deep mid-wicket runs in and dives full-length, only gets fingertips on it. Good effort...

Dahani to Priyamal Perera, out Lbw!! 136.9kph, cross-seam ball, nips back in from a short of length and Priyamal Perera is stuck his crease as he looks to tuck it into the leg-side. Don't think there's any bat. The same has been confirmed by UltraEdge. Over to ball-tracking and it's three reds! Hitting top of middle. The onfield call has been reversed. Successful review. Priyamal Perera lbw b Dahani 5(3) [4s-1]

Dhananjaya to Priyamal Perera, FOUR, gets off the mark in style! Priyamal Perera shimmies down the track, gets close to the pitch of the ball and whips it over mid-wicket for a one-bounce four

Dhananjaya to Towhid Hridoy, out Caught by Ross!! Holes out! Flat and quick around off, Towhid Hridoy shuffles across and gets down on one leg to slogsweep. Strikes hard but hits it flat. Ross comes in from deep mid-wicket to take a sharp catch. The -run stand has been broken. Towhid Hridoy c Ross b Dhananjaya 24(20) [4s-2]

Hayden Kerr to Asalanka, 1 run, full ball, knocked to long-on. Fifty partnership!

Noor Ahmad to Asalanka, FOUR, bad ball and that ruins the over for Noor - slower and wel down leg, Asalanka bends down low, gets a soft top-edge, but that was always a safe shot, runs away to the fine leg boundary
7.5
Dhananjaya to Asalanka, no run, appeal for LBW, it's turned down and DDS wants a review, he demands and his captain accepts. Is the impact outside off, Asalanka was lunging forward in defence and there's no bat, UltraEdge confirms it. Onto ball-tracking, the impact is indeed fine, but it's only clipping the outside of leg-stump - the umpire's call stays and so does Asalanka - he didn't read the spin as he pressed forward in defence

Noor Ahmad to Asalanka, 1 run, tossed up on off, worked in front of square on the on-side for a single

Noor Ahmad to Towhid Hridoy, FOUR, too straight from Noor, on the pads and Hridoy clips it fine, runs away past the man in the ring and into the ropes
5.2
Dhananjaya to Asalanka, no run, Asalanka has been given OUT LBW, looked straight, but he has reviewed, his only hope is that the ball is sliding down leg with the angle. Looks like no bat and UltraEdge confirms it, hit low on the front-pad with the impact being in front of middle and off - it's indeed sliding down leg with the angle and the original call has to be reversed, excellent review from Asalanka and he survived. Was full and Asalanka shaped for the sweep, snuck underneath and struck him right in front of the stumps

Hayden Kerr to Towhid Hridoy, FOUR, the slower off-cutter from Kerr, Hridoy waits on it, uses the pace on the delivery and then stabs it behind square on the off-side, beat backward point to his left and runs away to the ropes

Dahani to Asalanka, FOUR, back-to-back boundaries for Asalanka - on a good length and angling across the left-hander, Asalanka leans across, plays with an open face and slices the drive behind point for a boundary
3.3

Dahani to Asalanka, SIX, hammered, length ball around off, Asalanka walks down the pitch and then shovelled it high and over mid-wicket, there's a man in the deep, but he can only watch it soar over his head for a maximum

Binura Fernando to Gurbaz, out Caught by Kusal Mendis!! an appeal for caught behind and Aura review, banged in short and down leg, Gurbaz was shaping for the pull, the ball is close to the glove, UltraEdge in and there's a spike as the ball went past it, the decision has to be overturned and Gurbaz is OUT. Quite an unlucky way to go, was short and with pace, the right-hander was late on the shot and the ball did brush the glove on its way to the keeper. Gurbaz c Kusal Mendis b Binura Fernando 14(12) [4s-3]

Binura Fernando to Gurbaz, FOUR, thumped, make it three fours in a row, way too predictable from Binura, slower short ball outside off - Gurbaz has plenty of time to rock back and then pull it over mid-wicket, almost went all the way, bouncing in front of the ropes

Binura Fernando to Gurbaz, FOUR, back-to-back boundaries for Gurbaz - slower short ball from Binura, bowled into the surface and Gurbaz had to wait on it, swivelled across, rolled his wrists over and pulled it very fine, runs away to the ropes

Binura Fernando to Gurbaz, FOUR, excellent use of the feet from Gurbaz - comes down the pitch, makes room and then drives it over wide cover, bounces away to the ropes

Dahani to Asalanka, FOUR, banged in short and just outside off, Asalanka swivels across and plays a half-arm jab through mid-wicket, the timing is sweet and the ball runs away to the ropes

Binura Fernando to Gurbaz, no run, a direct hit and Asalanka might've been struggling, he was sent back and put in the big dive, would've been close if the fielder had found the target, nudged to the right of mid-wicket, Gurbaz took a step down the pitch and Asalanka responded
