SL vs ZIM Live Cricket Score

32.1 OUT! The change in bowling works! And it has fetched the big fish. Masakadza is gone. Floated outside off, it is a leg spinner and Masakadza mistimes his attempted slog sweep. Gets a top edge which seems to go into vacant area but Nuwan Pradeep runs a fair distance to his right from deep mid-wicket and takes a great catch. Masakadza departs after a wonderful knock. But one just felt that he could have waited for a bit more. 191/3

7.3 OUT! Solomon is gone! This is lovely bowling! Pradeep sticks to the plan. He goes wide of the crease and bowls a pin point yorker on middle, Mire comes forward to counter it but is undone by the pace on it. Gets rapped on the pads and umpire Ian Gould has no hesitation in ruling it out. Solomon walks towards his partner to ask for the review but Hamilton doesn't show any interest. Replays show it was in line and would have hit the middle stick. 39/1

26.4 OUT! In the air... gone! Asela Gunaratne provides the breakthrough and the 127-run stand comes to an end! Loopy ball around middle, Tarisai Musakanda heaves across the line towards wide long on. Didn't time it well and Upul Tharanga after fumbling twice does well to hold onto that one. He's disappointed at himself as he misses out on his fifty by just two runs. 166/2

34.5 OUT! Three reds and the decision stands! Tossed up delivery around middle and leg, Craig Ervine gets down on one knee to sweep but misses and is hit on the pads. A loud appeal for LBW and umpire after taking his time raises his dreaded finger. Ervine has a word with his partner and then opts for the review. Replays show it was pitched in line and would have gone on to hit the leg pole. Second wicket for Hasaranga and Sri Lanka pulling things back now. 206/4

44.4 OUT! Bowled 'em! Sean Williams is gutted with himself! He was the key man for his side but has been sent back. Gunaratne serves a loopy ball around middle and leg, it skids off the deck, Williams walks far to across the off stump and exposes all his stumps. He misses it completely and the ball goes on to rattle the timber. A timely wicket for the hosts again. 256/5

46 OUT! PLUMB LBW! Cannot miss full tosses. If you miss, you need to pay the price. And Waller does. He bowls an inswinger, goes for the yorker but misses it. It turns out into a full toss but luckily for the bowler, Waller misses his flick as well. Is hit on the pads and umpire Ian Gould raises his finger in a flash. Boy, that looked dead and replays confirm the same. Sri Lanka strengthening their hold in the death. 263/6

48.5 OUT! Straight to the man! Moor cannot make it three in a row. It is full but flatter this time, outside off and Moor mistimes his heave. It is towards long on but surprisingly it carries to Kusal Mendis who comes forward and takes a good catch. Finally, Sandakan gets a wicket in his final over. In his first 3 overs, he looked like picking up a wicket every over. 293/7

49 OUT! A diamond duck for Cremer! Raza punches this short of a length ball through the off side and Cremer sets off blindly for a run, thinking that Raza should keep the strike for the final over. But what he doesn't realize is that the bowler himself is in the way. It is now a running race between the bowler and Cremer. The latter pulls out and Sandakan disturbs the stumps at his end. 13 runs from the over but 2 wickets in it for Sri Lanka. Sandakan finishes with figures of 10-0-73-1. Those do not show how well he bowled, to be honest. 293/8

37 OUT! Zimbabwe finally draw first blood! Waller is pumped up, but is it too late? Nevertheless, something for them to smile at. He bowls a full ball around middle, Niroshan Dickwella sits down to sweep it but gets a bit of top edge and Williams at backward square leg takes it above his head. Dickwella has to walk back but not before playing a blinder. 229/1

37.5 OUT! Soft dismissal! Both the Lankan openers are back in hut! Zimbabwe have made some sort of a comeback here. Nicely floated around middle, Gunathilaka backs away to dab it away but the ball hits his bat, bounces and then disturbs the stumps behind. Danushka can't believe but has to walk back. He gets a round of applause from his mates. Sr Lanka needed 74 from 73 balls. 237/2
