Score48 - 6

Janith Liyanage to Michael Bracewell, OUT! HIGH UP IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! New Zealand fall from from disarray to disaster as Sri Lanka get their sixth wicket! A very well judged catch, just near the boundary fence and that sums up how brilliant the Sri Lankans have been in the fielding department in this game! Coming to the delivery, Janith Liyanage bustles from over the stumps and lands this on a fractionally fuller length, just around off. Michael Bracewell clears his front leg and swings hard at it. He tries to hit it a bit too hard and loses his shape in the process. Hence mistimes it aerially. It goes miles up in the air and hangs up for an eternity. The ball sails and descends towards the deep mid-wicket region where Kamindu Mendis settles under it. Locks his eyes on the ball and takes a sharp reverse cup catch at his chest height. Bracewell goes for 13 (20) and New Zealand are 48/6.
