SL vs BAN Live Cricket Score

15 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Maiden Test wicket for Tharindu Rathnayake and the debutant is thrilled to bits! From around the wicket, drifting in, on the line of the off stump, on a length, Shadman Islam gets a big stride and gets his bat out in front to block. He fails to get to the pitch of the ball to smother the spin. The ball lands and spins away to catch the outside edge. Since the attempted block was with soft hands, it went low to first slip but Dhananjaya de Silva did well to stay low and snaffle it near his ankle.  39/2

4.3 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! A classic Test match wicket for a pacer this! Bangladesh lose their first wicket and Asitha Fernando provides that early breakthrough for the Sri Lankans. Asitha keeps probing the batter by bashing that good-length area, around the off stump and also gets a good shape away, inviting the batter to play at it. Anamul Haque leans forward to work into the off side, but plays inside the line of the ball as it curves away from him. A thick outside edge is found and the keeper, Kusal Mendis does the rest by taking a safe catch to his right. Anamul Haque departs without opening his account - 0 (10) and Sri Lanka are 5/1.  5/1

16.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Redemption for Dhananjaya de Silva! Or is it? Mominul Haque has been asked to wait as the umpires check for a fair catch. This is short and on off, not that wide for the cut but Mominul flays at the delivery. Gets an outside edge that travels quickly towards first slip where de Silva reacts quickly this time around, having dropped Haque earlier. Dhananjaya catches it to his left and although there is a bit of a juggle as he rolls over to his left side, he manages to hold on. Tharindu Rathnayake is on a hat-trick as Mominul Haque departs on 29 (33) after getting a decent start. Bangladesh are 45/3.  45/3

96.1 OUT! TAKEN! Asitha Fernando delivers a much-needed breakthrough for the Lankans! On a length and outside off, it sticks in the deck. Najmul Hossain Shanto looks to drive it but the ball hits the upper part of his bat. It carries towards mid off. Angelo Mathews dives forward and takes a brilliant catch. Najmul Hossain Shanto walks back after a dazzling knock. The 264-run stand is broken. Shanto falls for 148 (279) and Bangladesh are now 309/4.  309/4

140.2 OUT! LBW! A loud shout and the finger is raised. This nips back in a bit, on a good length, on middle and leg, Rahim is not quite fully forward for the flick. The bat hits his front pad and the ball sneaks past the inside edge to hit him on the front pad. Mushfiqur Rahim goes for the review. There is no bat involved. The Ball Tracking comes up as umpire's call with the ball clipping the leg stump. Finally, some joy for Sri Lanka. End of a marathon knock from Mushfiqur. The 149-run stand is broken.  458/5

141.4 OUT! TAKEN! The defensive plan has paid off for Sri Lanka! Tharindu Rathnayake stays over the wicket and floats it up just outside the line of the leg stump. Litton Das brings out the reverse and tries to drag it away. The ball drops on him and kicks up a bit to catch the strap of the glove near the wrist. It goes onto hit him on the left shoulder and it pops up for the keeper, Kusal Mendis, to complete an easy catch. Litton goes for 90 (123). Bangladesh are now 458/6.  458/6

147 OUT! TIMBER! Milan Rathnayake gets his first wicket! On a length, landed around off and this jagged back in. Jaker Ali leans on and looks to block it, but misses. Gets beaten on the inside edge as the ball goes through the gap between the bat and the pad to rattle the stumps. Jaker Ali falls for 8 (16). Bangladesh are now 474/7.  474/7

150.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Milan Rathnayake gets his third wicket! Good length, angling in at off stump, which means Nayeem Hasan has to play at this. Milan Rathnayake gets it to jag away off the seam and kisses the outside edge. The ball carries behind, and Kusal Mendis, behind the sticks, goes low and completes a smart catch to his right.  484/9

148.4 OUT! TIMBER! Milan Rathnayake gets his second! The previous delivery moved in and this one moved away. A good setup from Milan Rathnayake.

End of a wonderful knock from the opener.  331/4

12.1 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Taijul gets the breakthrough. Flighted on off, turning away from the batter. Lahiru Udara looks to flick this towards the leg side but plays the stroke early. Gets it lobbed straight back to the bowler for a simple catch. A much needed breakthrough for Bangladesh. Can they build up on this?  47/1

51.5 OUT! TAKEN! Dinesh Chandimal falls to the trap! Bangladesh finally have the breakthrough. Nicely bowled from Nayeem Hasan as he serves it on the rough, full and on leg, this one doesn't turn much. Dinesh Chandimal presses forward to flick but edges it to leg slip where Shadman Islam takes the catch. The third umpire has a look at it. The replay shows Islam took it cleanly, low on the ground.  204/2

96 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Nayeem Hasan removes the Sri Lankan skipper in his second over only! He tosses it up but keeps it on a tempting length and around leg, gets it to turn back in. Dhananjaya de Silva plays this on the back foot as he looks to tickle it fine for a boundary towards fine leg, but he only manages to get a thin inside edge. The keeper, Litton Das, moves to his left sharply and grabs this fine catch.  377/5

101 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Bangladesh have started the day on a positive note as they have got two big wickets inside the first hour only! On a length but down the leg side line, Kusal Mendis looks to take on as he swings his bat hard and looks to whip it into the leg side towards square leg. But the ball catches only the inside edge of the bat and goes to the left of the keeper, where Litton Das moves and dives there fully and takes this sharp catch.  386/6

126.3 OUT! DRAGGED ON! This was coming! Milan Rathnayake was struggling against Mahmud! The bowler has done it with consistency! Bowls it on a good length and drags it just outside off. Milan Rathnayake tries to fend it away but gets an inside edge and it hits the stumps on a bounce. Good start to the session by Bangladesh.  470/7

128 OUT! BOWLED! Nayeem Hasan strikes again! The pitch has started to deteriorate a bit! Flatter and comes with an angle, it lands and straightens up to push Tharindu Rathnayake on the back foot to flick it away but he misses and it hits the stumps. Top stuff from Hasan.  471/9

131.2 OUT! BOWLED! Five-fer for Nayeem Hasan! All the Bangladeshi players come around to congratulate him. Asitha Fernando shapes for the reverse hit and Hasan flights this fuller delivery on off, turns in and Asitha Fernando misses. It crashes the stumps.  485/10

44.1 OUT! LBW! Milan Rathnayake strikes! Sri Lanka finally, finally gets the breakthrough as the 68-run stand has been broken now. Rathnayake was bowling everything outside off in the last over, and he does the same here too, but this time gets it to nip back in sharply. It keeps a bit low too. Shadman Islam is not expecting that and gets stuck on the crease, trying to keep it out. The ball sneaks past the inside edge and wraps him on the pads right in front of the stumps. There is a huge appeal for LBW, and up goes the finger. Islam does not even bother to reveiw it and walks back for an excellent 76 off 126. Bangladesh three down now!  128/3

7.5 OUT! GONE! Sri Lanka have the first one. Anamul Haque will be disappointed. Prabath Jayasuriya drops it short and well outside off, could be easily left but Anamul Haque chases and the extra bounce takes the edge to the keeper.  24/1

20 OUT! GONE! A wicket against the run of play! Tharindu Rathnayake bowls it in the channel around off, tossed up and Mominul Haque opts to sweep but gets a top edge, it hits his helmet and lobs to point where Lahiru Udara takes a dolly. Bangladesh are 60/2, leading by 70 runs!  60/2

76 OUT! RUN OUT! A bit of lack of judgment, and that has cost Mushfiqur Rahim his wicket here. Prabath Jayasuriya tosses it up, full and on middle. Mushfiqur Rahim drills it towards mid on and sets off for the run. Tharindu Rathnayake quickly pounces on the ball and, in one motion, fires in a throw to hit the stumps at the bowler's end. Rahim looks confident, but after watching the replays, he starts to walk back here. He misses out on a half-century by just one run, and the big 109-run stand has been broken. Finally something to cheer about for the Lankans!  237/4

77 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Tharindu Rathnayake bowls a beauty here! He tosses it up, full and around middle, grips and turns away sharply. Litton Das backs away to push it away but plays completely down the wrong line. The ball spins past the outside edge and rattles the stumps. Bangladesh are 241/5, leading by 251 runs!  241/5

79 OUT! STUMPED! Tharindu Rathnayake strikes again! The pitch has suddenly started to turn sharply here. Tossed up, full and around leg, turns away massively. Jaker Ali tries to flick it away but gets completely deceived by the spin. The ball goes through to the keeper where Kusal Mendis just about breaks the stumps. Ali is well short of his crease. Bangladesh six down now!  249/6

6.2 OUT! TAKEN! Pathum Nissanka has gifted away his wicket! Nicely bowled by Hasan! Tosses it up and bowls it full and on middle, Nissanka tries to work on the leg side but the ball straightens up and he ends up chipping it to short mid-wicket where Najmul Hossain Shanto takes a dolly. Two wickets in three balls. Both the openers are back in the hut.  34/2

6 OUT! STUMPED! Taijul Islam draws the first blood! Invites Lahiru Udara forward as he loops this on a length and around off, it lands and spins away. Lahiru Udara defends inside the line and gets beaten on the outside edge. It goes past and the keeper quickly clips the bails off. Much needed for Bangladesh as Sri Lanka started on a good note.  32/1

23.1 OUT! GONE! Bangladesh are not giving up yet. Beautifully bowled! Angles in a full ball around middle and draws Dinesh Chandimal forward to defend it but the ball turns away, past his edge and crashes the off pole. Wonderful from Taijul Islam.  48/4

19.5 OUT! TAKEN! Taijul Islam gets a huge wicket here! Angelo Mathews walks back for the final time in Test cricket and takes in all the applause from the opposition players and the crowd. Arm ball, full and on midle, angling in, AM looks to play but gets an inside edge onto his pads. The ball pops up wide of silly point where Mominul Haque shows great reflexes and takes a sharp catch to his right with one hand. Sri Lanka three down now! Also, Kamindu Mendis is the next man in.  47/3
