Ramesh Mendis picks up his sixth wicket and West Indies are bowled out for 253!  253/10

1.5 OUT! RUN OUT! Dimuth Karunaratne has to depart in just the second over! That was a suicidal attempt to take a run and it proves to be the Lankan skipper's undoing. Great work from Mayers and the Lankans are one wicket down now. Fuller, tossed up, on off, Dimuth Karunaratne pushes this to point and wants a single. Kyle Mayers runs in, collects the ball, and has a shy at the non-striker's end and hits the stumps too.

Shorter, around off, Oshada Fernando taps this one towards backward point. He comes forward looking for a run, Pathum Nissanka responds too, but then sends Oshada Fernando back. The Lankan batter turns and looks to get back, but, by then, Jermaine Blackwood collects the ball and throws it to Joshua Da Silva, who whips the bails off. Replays show that Oshada Fernando is well short of his crease. Sri Lanka behind by 10 runs!  39/2

30.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Veerasammy Permaul strikes and gets his first wicket of this innings. A positive start for the visitors.

Asalanka prods and looks to defend it. The ball takes the inside edge onto the pads and it lobs towards short leg. Nkrumah Bonner is placed there who takes the simplest of catches.  73/3

61.2 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Soft dismissal and Dinesh Chandimal is a goner. Nicely tossed up, on middle stump. Chandimal looks to play the on drive but the bat hits the deck and the ball just lobs up off the face of the bat. The ball goes towards Roston Chase who takes a dolly and is confident that it isn't a bump catch. The umpires go upstairs and the replays clearly show that the ball came off the face of the bat. Dinesh Chandimal looks baffled and Chase is elated. Can the visitors build on this and get rid of the tailenders?  157/5

79.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Ramesh Mendis falls into the trap and the partnership is finally broken! Nicely tossed up, around middle stump by Kraigg Brathwaite. Ramesh Mendis looks to slog it away on the leg side but he is hitting against the breeze. The slog sweep is mistimed aerially and towards the deep mid-wicket fence. Kemar Roach settles under it and takes a fine catch. Just a lapse in concentration and the skipper, Kraigg Brathwaite has done the job for his team.  208/6

82.5 OUT! LBW! Umpire's call on hitting! Flatter ball, on middle and leg. Lakmal goes back to block but gets hit on the pads. The finger goes up but Lakmal decides this one. There is no bat on it and Ball Tracker shows umpire's call on hitting!  219/7

84.3 OUT! TAKEN! What a fantastic catch that is! Loopy ball, on off. Mathews is not able to reach the pitch of the ball while looking to block and gets the outside edge. Jermaine Blackwood dives to his right at first slip and takes a sharp low catch.  221/8

121.4 OUT! BOWLED! There comes the wicket! Finally, the stand is broken. What a knock by Lasith Embuldeniya though. He batted really well and put on a brilliant recovery with Dhananjaya de Silva. With that wicket, the declaration comes and that is the end of the innings. Full ball, on off. Lasith Embuldeniya looks to drive it away but gets beaten and is bowled. Sri Lanka declare at 345 for 9!  345/9

7.4 OUT! LBW! Not sure why Kraigg Brathwaite reviewed that one! Full ball, lands on off and goes straight on. Kraigg Brathwaite looks to block inside the line of the ball and misses.

50.2 OUT! DRAGGED ON! A long innings by Bonner comes to an end. Lasith Embuldeniya strikes and picks up his third wicket. Another one bites the dust and Sri Lanka are well and truly on top. This session has gone from bad to worse for the visitors. Tossed up, around off, too close to the body. Bonner goes back and looks to cut it away. The ball takes the inner half and strucks the off pole. Delight in the Sri Lankan camp.  108/7

43.1 OUT! TAKEN! Straight to the man! A wicket against the run of play. Short ball, on off. Hope goes back and pulls it hard but straight to short square leg. Lakmal takes it with ease and a stand that was troubling the Lankan spinners is finally broken.  92/3

43.2 OUT! TAKEN! A golden duck for Chase and Mendis is on a hat-trick! This is why a stand is so important as it is not easy for the new man to bat under pressure. Tossed up, lands on off and turns back in. Chase looks to drive but gets the inside edge to short leg. Oshada Fernando takes it wicket ease!  92/4

44 OUT! TAKEN! WOW, WHAT AN OVER! A triple-wicket maiden for Mendis and the game has turned on its head! This one is a bit fuller, just outside off.
