1.4 to AD Hales, oh that's out, surely - yep, bang in front! Herath fired this in straight, no turn, and Hales is trapped in front while sweeping. 4/1

10.1 to JE Root, he's holed out! A horrid shot to a horrid ball - short, asking to be mowed for six but he picks out deep midwicket who swallows it with ease. 65/2
12.5 to JJ Roy, swing and a miss and out! Trapped in front. It did look very high, but the umpire's finger was raised immediately - and that's a huge wicket. 88/3

0.3 to TM Dilshan, gone! A shorter ball, Dilshan went for the pull but straight down deep square-leg's throat - who barely had to move a muscle!. 3/1
2.5 to TAM Siriwardana, steps outside leg, tries to loft him over cover but finds a leaping Morgan who pulls it down smartly. 15/3
402847.00114030
1.2 to LD Chandimal, edged to the keeper! Quickish delivery but very wide and Chandimal didn't know whether to play or leave, edging to Buttler's right who took an easy catch. 4/2
16.4 to NLTC Perera, uppishly driven straight to Willey at mid-off! England fight back!. 137/6
18.3 to MD Shanaka, catch it - what a catch from Root! Shanaka leant back and murdered this but uppishly, just to Root's left at mid-off, who flung himself high and to his left, two-handed, to pounch a stunner!. 155/7
18.6 to HMRKB Herath, bowled him! Jordan discovers his yorker when it most matters, and what a yorker too - demolishing middle-and-off. 157/8

12.6 to CK Kapugedera, another huge hit but he's skied it...and Stokes, steadying himself at deep midwicket, takes a good catch under pressure with a baying crowd for company!. 95/5
