    11.1 caught at wide slip off the toe edge! What a weird dismissal. Tanzim strikes again. This is a short ball, wide-ish of off stump. Nissanka tries to pull this in front of square on the legside, but gets the timing wrong. The ball hits the toe of the bat and goes straight into the midriff of Soumya Sarkar at about third slip. Tempted to say that's an inspired field placement, but no one expects toe-ended shots to go there! 72/2
    9.5 edged and gone! This is excellent from Tanzim, who has bowled that very tempting length, pushed it wide of the batter and got him to play away from his body, and seamed it away ever so slighly to miss the middle of the bat and take the edge. It's only a light touch, so Mushfiq has no issues behind the stumps. That's a vital breakthroguh for Bangladesh. Avishka was getting into his work. 71/1
    36.4 Mendis is gone! He takes a risk and perishes, getting himself caught at mid off. This is a length ball on about off and Mendis spots that mid off is in the circle and tries to clear the fielder. But the length is not quite there to get under this ball, and he gives an easy catch to that fielder. 197/5
    13.1 Tanzim is wreaking havoc! He's got another edge, and another wicket, this time thanks to a wonderful diving grab by Mushfiq behind the wicket as well. This is full and angled in to off stump. Sadeera has to play and plays a big drive. It takes a thick edge and although Mushfiq was originally moving towards leg, has to leap quickly towards the offside to intercept this ball. Tanzim is changing the outlook of this innings very quickly. 84/3
    25.2 bowled him! Beauty. Asalanka is rooted to the crease and has his off stump knocked out of the ground. Mehidy is coming from around the wicket, pitches on off and straightens with the spin. Asalanka is trying to push this towards mid on, but doesn't account for the turn on what is a quick-ish delivery, Ball turns past the outside edge and clatters into the woodwork. 128/4
    46.1 Shoriful finally gets a wicket and it's the big one of Liyanage! Liyanage charges down the track, but Shoriful drags the length back. Liyanage is left reaching for this outside off and ends up nicking through for an easy grab behind the stumps 244/8
    40.4 And the plan works! They've been peppering Hasaranga with the short stuff trying to induce this ramp to third man, and finally Hasaranga succumbs. Short on off, ramped straight down third man's throat. Sri Lanka now in a spot of bother with a little under 10 overs left to go 221/6
    42.4 Edged and gone! Another well worked wicket from Bangladesh. Slip was in place ready for this, as Taskin hits the deck on a back of a length outside off. Theekshana can't help but having a waft and he gets a thick edge through. Slip takes a well judged catch high to his left 225/7
    48.2 Top edge and gone! Shoriful digs it in short and rushes Madushan, who is late on the pull and only manages a top edge that goes straight up. Mushfiqur circles under and completes a simple take 255/9

    48.5 And that's that! Tanzib, who had made his way back on to the field, finishes off the innings with a splendid bit of work at backward point. Madushanka looks to hack this away onside but gets a leading edge that looks to be looping over Tanzib, but he leaps with two hand and grabs this excellently 255/10

    0.1 What a start for Sri Lanka! Madushanka shapes this back in from that half space between good length and back of a length, catches Litton in the crease, cramping him for space. Ends up chopping this down on to the base of the stumps 0/1
    2.4 Sarkar goes for the softest of dismissals! He'll be extremely disappointed with this. This was shorter, and wider. But Sarkar plays this purely on length. Instead of cutting he looks to exploit the gap through midwicket. He only manages though to top edge this straight to square leg for the simplest of takes 14/2

    5.1 Madushan crashes through Hridoy's gate! This was just slightly short of a good length. Hridoy makes a small stride forward and produces a tentative forward defence, but leaves just enough of a gap for Madushan to creep through and crack the top of off stump 23/3
    15.3 Madushanka takes a screamer to dismiss Mahmudullah! This was dug in short from Kumara and Mahmudullah gets a top edge on the pull, but Madushanka running in from square leg still has loads to do, as he dives full length to his left to complete a very well judged take 92/4
