Hasaranga to Raza, out Caught by Kusal Perera!! Hasaranga his his man. It's cleverly thrown up well outside off as Raza gives the charge, maybe Hasaranga saw him coming, Raza has to reach for it, tries to loft, slices it off a thick outside-edge and a dolly to short third man. KJP gestures that he almost lost it in the lights. The dangerous Raza goes and that's a big wicket. Raza c Kusal Perera b Hasaranga 37(29) [4s-5 6s-1]
