    1.5 massive swing back in and given lbw even though he has skipped down the wicket. They have reviewed it. It is drifting in just like an arm ball but in the opposite direction. Rahul is completely flummoxed. It looks like it has beaten the inside edge and laned on the toe. Has it swung too much? Hang on, there is a sound signature as the ball passes the bat, but it looks like it is the bat hitting the boot. The third umpire says the same. And the ball tracker shows it is clipping leg. Rahul has to walk back 11/1
    12.2 oh he is gone. Slower short ball, has some room available, but Rohit doesn't get much power into it because of the slowness. And he has picked out deep point with the upper-cut. A superb innings comes to an end 110/3
    2.4 no need to wait for the 15 seconds here. His stumps are flattened. Kohli is playing according to the team plan, looking to capitalise on the field restrictions. Looking to slog a length ball over midwicket but it seams back in a touch and both his off and middle stumps are on the ground 13/2
    14.2 looks for his favourite ramp but the slowness of the pitch gets him. Also he is cramped for room. He is looking to somehow get enough on this bouncer to clear short third, but he has nothing to work with. Easy catch for short third. This is not a slower ball, mind you 119/4
    17.3 oh he has caught out deep midwicket. This is not a great delivery. In the slot, on the pads, Pandya looks to go over deep midwicket, but doesn't get all of it. Caught at deep midwicket 149/5
    18.3 big big wicket. This could be worth 10 runs. Slower short ball, Pant still goes hard trying to pull it for a six, but he has found deep midwicket, one of only four fielders outside the circle. Superb delivery. Legcutter slower bouncer. really difficult ball to execute 158/7
    18.1 Hooda shuffles across early to look to go over short fine, giving Madushanka a full view of the stumps. Madushanka bowls a length ball, and Hooda is early into the shot. The middle stumps goes for a walk 157/6

    19.3 slower ball, Bhuvneshwar delays the downswing but not enough. It is still too slow for his slog, and the middle stump is pegged back and leg stump flattened 164/8

    11.1 There's the first wicket! Flighted ball outside leg, he goes for the reverse sweep looking to clear the in-field. But he cannot keep it down or find the gap and finds Rohit Sharma at backward point. But what a knock this was by Nissanka. Has set the chase up brilliantly. 97/1
    14.1 Another one for Chahal? Yes, the umpire's finger goes up and it is the big wicket of Mendis. Slider on middle stump, he goes back but is beaten by the pace of it. Is struck right in front of the stumps. Mendis reviews but more in hope than anything. He is walking off even before the third umpire's decision. Impact in line and the ball would have clattered into leg stump. 110/4
    11.4 In the aiiiir and a second wicket in the over! Is there a way back for India? Flighted gently on middle. He goes for the hard sweep, gets a top edge and Suryakumar at deep backward square completes a simple catch. Chahal is pumped. 97/2
    13.5 Flighted gently outside off and he lofts it straight into the hands of long off. What are SL doing? Mendis is batting beautifully but is not getting any support. Was looking to go much squarer but hits it straight to Rahul. 110/3
