Dushmantha Chameera

Batsman	R	B	4s	6s	SR
Rahmanullah Gurbaz Wk	8	10	2	0	80
c Dimuth Karunaratne b Lahiru Kumara 2 OUT! EDGED AND IS TAKEN! Lahiru Kumara strikes and gets the early wicket! This is short and outside off. Gurbaz tries to tonk it away, he pulls but the exra bounce takes the top edge and flies behind square leg. Dimuth Karunaratne runs in from deep and holds on. 13/1 80% DotBall 20% Scoring Shots 5 Ball per Boundary
Ibrahim Zadran	22	21	4	0	104.76
b Lahiru Kumara 8.4 OUT! BOWLED! That is an absolute beauty from Kumara! Sri Lanka are all over the tourists right now. Lahiru Kumara goes full and just around off, slightly nips in. Zadran tries to push it around mid off but gets an inside edge and the ball ricochets back onto the stumps. 48/4 52.38% DotBall 47.62% Scoring Shots 5 Ball per Boundary
Rahmat Shah	7	11	1	0	63.63
c Kusal Mendis b Dushmantha Chameera 4.3 OUT! Shah goes now! Afghanistan in more trouble! Hard length delivery from Chameera! Shorter and outside off. Shah chases this wide delivery, tries to cut but gets a faint edge to the keeper who makes no mistake. 27/2 72.73% DotBall 27.27% Scoring Shots 11 Ball per Boundary
Hashmatullah Shahidi C	4	3	1	0	133.33
c Kusal Mendis b Dushmantha Chameera 5 OUT! GONE! This is what Dushmantha Chameera was trying in the previous delivery! Length ball, tailing down leg from around the wicket. Shahidi again tries to help it away but edges it to the right of the keeper, Kusal Mendis who dives and takes. 31/3 66.67% DotBall 33.33% Scoring Shots 3 Ball per Boundary
Mohammad Nabi	23	23	2	0	100
lbw b Dushmantha Chameera 14.1 OUT! LBW! An appeal for LBW and up goes the finger. Nabi takes the review. No bat clearly. Ball Tracking shows it is umpire's call on wickets hitting and Nabi has to go. Big wicket for the Lankans and even 150 looks very difficult for Afghanistan from hereon. On a length and on middle, angles in. Nabi is squared up as he looks to defend. 77/6 43.48% DotBall 56.52% Scoring Shots 11 Ball per Boundary
Najibullah Zadran	10	13	2	0	76.92
c Wanindu Hasaranga b Dushmantha Chameera 12.4 OUT! TAKEN! Dushmantha Chameera is bowling superbly! Right from the start of this over, he troubled both of them! Short in length and on off. Zadran hops and tries to flick but gets a leading edge to point. Wanindu Hasaranga runs back and takes it well. 72/5 69.23% DotBall 30.77% Scoring Shots 6 Ball per Boundary
Gulbadin Naib	20	21	4	0	95.23
c Dhananjaya de Silva b Maheesh Theekshana 20.4 OUT! TAKEN! Maheesh Theekshana gets one now! Flighted, outside off. Naib drags it, he swings and gets a top edge to long on where Dhananjaya de Silva takes the skier. 103/9 61.9% DotBall 38.1% Scoring Shots 5 Ball per Boundary
Rashid Khan	2	8	0	0	25
lbw b Wanindu Hasaranga 15.4 OUT! LBW! That is plumb as you like. One mystery spinner gets the other one. Wanindu Hasaranga slows it up, full and around middle. Khan gets on his knee to sweep but misses and gets hit on the pads. An appeal and up goes the finger. 80/7 87.5% DotBall 12.5% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Mujeeb Ur Rahman		4	0	0	0
c Kusal Mendis b Wanindu Hasaranga 17.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mujeeb Ur Rahman waits for a second, walks back but then reviews as Naib forces him! Flat, slow and around off, spins away. Mujeeb Ur Rahman looks to defend it late but gets a faint edge to the keeper. Mujeeb Ur Rahman knew it. UltraEdge later confirms with a spike. 92/8 100% DotBall 0% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Fazalhaq Farooqi	4	15	1	0	26.66
lbw b Wanindu Hasaranga 22.2 OUT! LBW! This time it should be out! Fazalhaq Farooqi has taken the review though. A googly, full and on middle. Farooqi tries to heave but is late to get his bat across and gets hit on the pads. An appeal and up goes the finger. UltraEdge shows no bat. Ball Tracking shows three reds. Afghanistan are bowled out for 116. 116/10 93.33% DotBall 6.67% Scoring Shots 15 Ball per Boundary

lbw b Gulbadin Naib 10.1 Up goes the finger but Pathum Nissanka reviews. He has been given out LBW but that seems plumb. OUT! THAT IS HITTING LEG! Lanka lose a review too. Something to be happy about for Afghanistan! They get Pathum Nissanka who was on fire out there. This starts outside off and tails back in late. Pathum Nissanka looks to flick but misses, it hits the pad. A loud shout and the finger is raised. Can Afghanistan get a couple more quickly. Just the 33 more needed. 84/1 52.94% DotBall 47.06% Scoring Shots 3 Ball per Boundary
