Prabath Jayasuriya to Mohammad Rizwan, Almost two in two for Sri Lanka. This is floated outside leg, Mohammad Rizwan goes for the sweep but only manages to glove it. The ball goes up in the air but falls safely near the leg slip region. Niroshan Dickwella had no clue where the ball was and it drops safely. Actually, it came off the forearm.

Mohammad Rizwan is the new man in. The 100-run stand is broken and finally, Sri Lanka have an opening. How badly were they looking for it! Pakistan still need 137 runs. But this wicket surely brings back the Lankans into the game.

Halt in play! Theekshana has some issues with his finger. His bowling arm! Actually, the umpire called Dimuth Karunaratne and had a chat regarding the strapping Maheesh Theekshana is having on his finger. he was asked to remove it and Theekshana is feeling the pain there.

Prabath Jayasuriya to Babar Azam, OUT! BOWLED! Prabath Jayasuriya gets the big fish. This is tossed up outside leg, turning into the batter sharply.
