10.1 OUT LBW! Another one bites the dust and there are two new batters in space of two balls. Maheesh Theekshana bowls from 'round the wicket and angles a full ball, around middle and leg. Warner stays back and leans to defend but misses and the ball hits him on the pads. A huge appeal for LBW and nothing given from the umpire. Sri Lanka take the review. UltraEdge shows no bat there. David Warner is already walking back as Ball Tracking shows three reds. Out it is. 85/3

10 OUT! TAKEN! Wanindu Hasaranga strikes! He gets rid of the dangerous, Glenn Maxwell! A wicket at a perfect time for Sri Lanka. Another googly, full in length, around middle and off. Glenn Maxwell dances down the track and smashes it towards long on. He does so without any elevation, that has been hit very flat, and Danushka Gunathilaka at long on pouches it safely.

10.2 OUT! RUN OUT! Team Hat-Trick! What a turnaround this is from Sri Lanka! Josh Inglis goes for a golden duck. Australia are losing their way here! This is full and on middle. Inglis paddles it and the ball rolls away behind the keeper. Charith Asalanka at first slip, anticipates and moves across quickly to stop it. Meanwhile, there is an adrenaline rush for Inglis who tries to take a run which is not available there. He is sent back and Asalanka scores a direct hit at the keeper's end. Even the keeper had enough time to clip the bails off but he was not required there. Brilliant work from Charith Asalanka and Sri Lanka have found good momentum here. 85/4
