2.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Romario Shepherd has the last laugh here. Pathum Nissanka gets a couple of boundaries to his name, but takes the early walk back to the dressing room.

7.3 OUT! Timber! Motie strikes and gets the massive wicket of Mendis. Excellent change in pace! This is fired in on the off pole. Mendis looks to guide it down to third man but it goes off the face and clips the off pole. Too close to play that shot. In trouble are the hosts. 58/3

| Kusal Perera | 6 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 200 |
|
3.2 OUT! CLEANED UP! Shamar Joseph comes 'round the wicket and gets the better of Kusal Perera. The crowd has gone silent. It is a length ball, angled in around off. It shapes in off the deck as well. Kusal Perera stays inside the crease and tries to put it away, but fails to get any bat on it. The ball goes past the blade and disturbs the furniture behind. 27/2

18.2 OUT! That's a fine catch! Brilliantly taken! A slower one. On middle. Asalanka looks to go over long on. He's through the shot early. It goes more towards deep mid-wicket. Lewis takes a fine catch. End of a brilliant knock from Asalanka. West Indies will be pleased with the wicket as this could make a difference of around 10 runs to the final score. 163/5

11.4 OUT! TAKEN! That's the wicket Sri Lanka wanted. King falls. Sri Lanka just about hanging in there. This is tossed up. He drags the length just a little back. King steps out and swings. He looks to go over the leg side but it goes off the top edge and it is taken at cover. Rovman Powell is the new batter in. 128/3
