3.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Benny Howell strikes and gets rid of the dangerous Rahmanullah Gurbaz! Howell with his variations again. Lands this on a length and around off at 103 clicks this time. Even slower than the last delivery and Gurbaz tries to tonk it down the ground. However, he completely miscues it and the ball goes high in the air towards the off side. Niroshan Dickwella, the keeper calls for it, keeps his eyes on the ball till the last moment and takes a very tricky catch quite safely. Big wicket! 35/1

10.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Big, big wicket and Howell is the man who does the trick again with his clever variations. Avishka Fernando is disappointed but Howell and rest of the Stars players are pumped up, they know how important this wicket is. This is full and on middle. Avishka Fernando is deceived by the pace of this delivery as it is at 101 kph and Avishka Fernando ends up playing his flick shot early. He chips it uppishly towards long on and Naveen-ul-Haq completes an easy catch. 85/3

8.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Naveen-ul-Haq strikes and he continues to exhibit an outstanding exhibition of variations to claim wickets!

The ball goes high towards deep mid-wicket where Charith Asalanka comes running forward to take a comfortable catch. Jaffna Kings have lost the second wicket but it does not look likely that they will slow down their scoring rate. 74/2

7.2 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! What a delivery! Dinesh Chandimal has been undone by an absolute cracker of a delivery! Asitha Fernando lands it on a good length, around off. However, the ball nips back in sharply after pitching and Chandimal who tries to push it comepletely misses it. The ball knocks over the stumps and half of the side is back into the hut now. Colombo Stars are in some serious trouble now! 37/5

The equation now becomes even tougher for the Stars. 157/8
