4.5 to TM Dilshan, boy, this is the ghost of Dilshan. A pale imitation of the batsman who used to pulp the new ball. What a tame stroke to go. He hasn't sorted out Gul all series, and faithfully nurdles another one into Umar's gloves. It was Gul's peachy away seamer, landing back of a length outside off and going away. Dilshan just sparred at it on the up without getting the foot across. A nothing shot. SL in all sorts of trouble, again.. 20/2
703444.85295040
3.3 to WU Tharanga, and gone. Tanvir has bowled a few huge inswingers and now slips in the away-swinger. When he's on song, he gets these to snake about madly. Tharanga didn't spot the movement, he got the front foot out and looked to defend to the off side, but the deviation was too much. The feather carries into Umar's gloves and Tharanga walks.. 13/1
7.4 to LD Chandimal, SL in dire straits now. Chandimal is on his way, after being hoodwinked into giving Younis slip-catching practice. A little unconventional gem of a delivery that, from Tanvir. Swirls out of his snappy wrist, angling across from over the stumps, short of a driving length, it lands on the stumps and then whistles away deceptively. Chandimal was on the back foot, doing his best to read the deviation, and offered the bat in an attempt to guide it square. The ball had other plans, though, it swerved away enough to take the outside edge and Younis takes it really well, low at second slip.. 32/3
49.4 to NLTC Perera, slower ball at 105 kph. Thisara could have gone to the dressing room and come back to play it. But he didn't, he tried his best to adjust and swat it away, but the ball still hoodwinked him and took out leg stump.. 214/8
49.6 to SL Malinga, and he finishes with a wicket. Well bowled, Tanvir. Another slower ball, this was short and hence Malinga couldn't play the big heave down the ground. He ended up having to drag it away to the leg side, but he mistimed it. Misbah ran in to take a good low catch.. 218/9
301816.0082000
10.5 to LPC Silva, Chamara's not made much of an impact after flying into the UAE. Junaid strikes in his first over, with a 139 kph delivery that did little off the pitch. It angled across Chamara at pace, landing outside off and inviting the drive. Chamara gladly obliged, providing Misbah with some more slip catching practice. Disaster for the Lankans.. 46/4
1022612.60422010
43.1 to AD Mathews, heartbreak for Sri Lanka. Mathews plays around a straight one and is bowled round the legs. Offbreak angled in from round the stumps, lands on leg stump and straightens. Mathews had walked too far across and was looking to work it square. Mistake. Leg stump comes in the ball's way.. 180/7
1006016.00202110
42.2 to BMAJ Mendis, Afridi has a wicket, and he doesn't even celebrate in usual style. It is the quick fast ball that angles across the left hander. Jeevan is sucked into the trap, he leans out and searches for the drive, but the ball misses the edge. And then, for some reason, Jeevan takes his back foot out of the crease as he over-balances, and then comically falls down three yards out of the crease. Umar fumbles the ball, but has all the time to break the stumps.. 176/6
1012912.90350010
38.5 to KC Sangakkara, the big stand is broken. Sanga muscles a flighted ball straight to Misbah at cover. It has been a really good innings, and in the circumstances a solid stand, but Sanga will know his business wasn't finished. Hafeez continues to pick up crucial wickets with uncanny ease.. 164/5

44.2 to Shahid Afridi, Malinga's removed Afridi from the picture ... Ahemm, is this a late stutter? Well directed short one again, it had Afridi's ribs in its sights. He got into no position, just stayed back and proferred bat at it without ducking, the ball hit the toe-edge and ballooned up towards the slips. Sanga completes the catch.. 202/6

8.1 to Mohammad Hafeez, boy, he's struck again with the first ball of a new spell. Whippy, back of a length ball that goes away just a touch and bounces, Hafeez cuts from it miles away from the body and edges to the right of Sanga. Easy take for him.. 25/1
47.1 to Sohail Tanvir, Pakistan are trying their hardest to funk this. Tanvir's turn now. Tries to lash it away over midwicket and gets a top edge that loops up and lands in midwicket's hands. Four to win for one side. Three for the other.. 215/7
511112.20221000
13.4 to Asad Shafiq, Given lbw, and he's referred it. Well bowled Angelo, gets this one to come in off the seam after taking the previous one away. Shafiq gets the front foot too far across and then scissors the bat down around it, but the ball slips through and hits him dead plub. Three reds light up.. 51/2
703635.14183000
25.2 to Younis Khan, pinned on the crease, and Younis has to go. Jeevan slips in a quick and sprightly legbreak that lands on off and straightens. Younis should have probably played forward to it. He looked to work it to the leg side across the line and the ball hit him at shin height, and seemed set to crash into off stump.. 113/3
25.3 to Shoaib Malik, on a hat-trick! Jeevan has breathed some jeevan into the innings now. Malik gropes in hope is trapped palpably in front. The last one was the leggie, this was the googly. Malik's turn to be caught on the crease, he didn't spot the turn and was playing down the long line. He's not looked the part at all with the bat in these two innings. Plumb.. 113/4
43.3 to Misbah-ul-Haq, fifth time unlucky! Misbah perishes to the reverse sweep. Too late for Sri Lanka's liking, though. Tossed up outside off and breaking away, he puts the knee down as is his wont, reverses the grip and reverse-lashes it. This time, it takes the top edge and goes easily into the hands of the man behind square. He has a world with Umar on his way back - "Finish it off," I guess, is what he said.. 197/5
