|
19.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the fielder and that marks the end of a fine, fine knock from Sahibzada Farhan. Dilshan Madushanka goes full and wide, in search of the yorker but doesn't get it spot-on. Farhan hangs back and looks to smoke it over long off but gets merely any elevation. Hits it firmly but straight to extra cover where Janith Liyanage takes a sharp catch right around his face. 203/6

| Fakhar Zaman | 84 | 42 | 9 | 4 | 200 |
|
15.5 OUT! PLAYED ON! Sri Lanka finally, finally have a wicket. But the damage is done. Chameera bowls a low full toss and far outside off, Fakhar shuffles to whip it across to the leg side, but gets beaten by the pace and inside edges it back onto the stumps behind. Farhan pats Fakhar's back as the latter makes his way back to the dugout after an enterprising knock for his country. A whirlwind inning from Fakhar Zaman comes to an end and Pakistan are 176/1. 176/1

| Khawaja Nafay | 2 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 66.66 |
|
16.3 OUT! CAUGHT! When it rains, it pours and just like that, one wicket brings two for Sri Lanka. Overpitched delivery from Dilshan Madushanka, missing his mark with the wide yorker. Khawaja Nafay walks across and down the pitch and gets low, looking to hammer it over long on but doesn't get the desired connection. Hits it down the throat of Charith Asalanka at long on and he makes no mistake. 179/2

| Shadab Khan | 7 | 5 | 1 | 0 | 140 |
|
18 OUT! SHADAB KHAN IS RUN OUT! A sacrificial wicket but it doesn't matter much at this stage. Low full toss and angled into the toes, Shadab Khan flicks it away wide of deep square leg for a single. Dilshan Madushanka in the deep is almost undone by the spin but does well to adjust and latch onto the ball to his left. The batters attempt for the second run but Madushanka throws it to the keeper, and Kamil Mishara whips off the bails with Shadab not even in the frame. Pakistan are 198/3. 198/3

| Mohammad Nawaz | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
18.2 OUT! CAUGHT! A golden duck for Mohammad Nawaz and Sri Lanka keep chipping away with late wickets. Dasun Shanaka bowls this full and angles it well across off, Nawaz extends the arms to drive but does so in the air and hits it straight to extra cover. Maheesh Theekshana takes a smart low catch. Pakistan losing steam at the backend. They are 199/4. 199/4

| Salman Agha C | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
18.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust and 176/0 has become 199/5 in a flash. Dasun Shanaka bowls it back of a length again and bangs it into the deck, wide outside off. Salman Agha reaches out to go big but splices it over the cover region. Maheesh Theekshana tracks back and takes a simple catch at the edge of the ring. 199/5

| Shaheen Afridi | 4 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 200 |
|
19.3 OUT! LBW! Too hot to handle for the batter and Shaheen Afridi starts walking off, not before signalling for the DRS, though. A straight yorker, right in the blockhole, tails back in a bit as well. Shaheen Afridi fails to dig it out and gets pinged on the back leg. Looked plumb to the naked eye and Ball Tracking confirms the same. 207/7

| Naseem Shah | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 100 |
|
19.5 OUT! NASEEM SHAH IS RUN OUT! Fuller one outside off, Usman Khan swats it away to deep cover, where the fielder lets it slip through his hands. The batters pinch the second run but get a bit greedy and look for the third run, which is never there. Naseem ends up at the keeper's end just as Usman and Kamindu Mendis throws the ball back to the bowler. The bails are dislogded but there is some confusion regarding who is actually out here. Replays show that Usman grounded his bat, whereas Naseem had his willow dangling in the air. 210/8

|
1.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Absolutely outsmarted the batter and Pakistan have their first breakthrough. Naseem cunningly goes pace off and throws it wide outside off, away from the batter's arc as Pathum moves away early. Pathum Nissanka backs a bit to carve it through the off side, but is way too early in his shot and ends up tamely chipping it toward the cover fielder. Mohammad Nawaz backtracks a bit and takes a fine-judged catch at the edge of the ring with a reverse cup. Showed all his cards early, did Nissanka and paid the price. Sri Lanka are 8/1. 8/1

| Kamil Mishara Wk | 26 | 15 | 4 | 1 | 173.33 |

4.1 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Abrar Ahmed comes into the attack and strikes right away. He bowls this flatter, shortish and on off, skids through and goes with the arm. Kamil Mishara backs away and looks to cut it away but gets late on the shot. The ball goes through and hits the top of off pole. Sri Lanka are 33/2, still needing 180 runs in 95 balls. 33/2

8.5 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Pakistan get a massive wicket with 72 runs still to play with. Flighted up, full and around off, Charith Asalanka sits down for the sweep but fails to connect. The ball dips and skids on to hit the off stump and Abrar has his second wicket. Sri Lanka are 75/3, needing 138 more. 75/3

| Pavan Rathnayake | 58 | 37 | 4 | 3 | 156.75 |

17.3 OUT! CAUGHT! A few overs too late for Pakistan and they don't even celebrate the wicket at all. Hard length from Shaheen Afridi, on middle and leg and bowls it slower too. Pavan Rathnayake stays put, clears the front leg and launches it high up towards long on. The ball just doesn't have the legs to clear the ropes and the substitute fielder, Saim Ayub pouches it comfortably. End of a fighting knock from Rathnayake. 162/6

11 OUT! TIMBER! Abrar Ahmed finishes his spell with his third wicket and keeps his team in the contest. Floated up, slower and on a length around off. Kamindu Mendis looks to pull but the ball never arrives and stays low as well. Mendis swings his blade past the ball and the ball goes on to hit the off stump. Sri Lanka are 94/4, needing 119 more to win. 94/4

| Janith Liyanage | 5 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 166.66 |

12 OUT! GONE! Back of a length on middle, gripping and turning away at 86.8 kph. Liyanage makes room but plays down the wrong line, shaping to punch it straight. He is beaten on the outside edge and the ball crashes into the top of middle stump. Sri Lanka are half a side down on 101, needing 112 more. 101/5
