Hemantha to Mitchell Marsh, out Lbw!! Huge shout for LBW! Mendis is relentless with his appealing but the finger stays down. They've gone for the review. Oh that's plumb. Only thing that could've saved him was the inside edge but it was pad first. Marsh starts walking as soon as he sees the replay and the fightback from Sri Lanka continues. Hemantha again, the one who started it. Beats Marsh in length as he hangs back to a full delivery and is struck on the back pad. Crashing into middle as per ball-tracking. Mitchell Marsh lbw b Hemantha 54(27) [4s-8 6s-2]
