Hasaranga to Brook, SIX, Nissanka at deep mid-wicket falls and the ball clears him. It's a good length delivery on off, Brook goes on the back foot and pulls, even if Nissanka hadn't slipped, it still would've cleared him I suppose, had the elevation to clear him

F

Hasaranga to Jacob Bethell, no run, Sri Lanka now have no reviews. Just pitching outside the leg-stump and that's it. Jacob Bethell misses the sweep and is rapped on the pads, also the googly and it was probably turning away from off-stump too. So a poor review that

W
Hasaranga to Rehan Ahmed, out Caught by Vandersay!! Rehan Ahmed has gifted his wicket away! A dragdown from Hasaranga, it's the googly and it's turning in towards Rehan Ahmed.
