Theekshana bowls it from around the stumps and dishes out a flatter one, just around off. It lands right on the seam and grips and turns sharply away from the batter, cutting the southpaw into half as it leaves him. Mitchell Santner is totally caught off guard with his bat hanging away from the body. A thick outside edge is found and Kusal Mendis shows sharp awareness as he grabs it alertly behind the stumps. Santner departs on 2 (15) and Sri Lanka now need just 3 wickets to win.
