Chameera to Mohammad Wasim, no run, Sri Lanka win by 6 runs. They are delighted. Chameera has done it. He has delivered when his team needed him the most. No surprise that his team mates are mobbing him. Coming to the ball: Nails the yorker and Wasim can't do much, he jams it out into the leg-side and the pair don't bother to run. Also, Zimbabwe have been knocked out and it will be the final will be a replay of this game..
