15.6
Mark Wood to Shanaka, 1 run, back of a length on middle and leg, clips it through square leg
15.5
Mark Wood to Shanaka, no run, feet going nowhere, Shanaka doesn't want to bother getting behind the line. Back of a length outside off, nips away as he hangs his bat out. Beaten on the edge
15.4
Mark Wood to Hasaranga, 1 run, banging it into the pitch, really uncomfortable for Hasaranga as the ball climbs towards his rib-cage. Manages to nudge it into the on-side
15.3
Mark Wood to Shanaka, 1 run, short of length into the body, Shanaka rides the bounce and tucks it through square leg
15.2
Mark Wood to Shanaka, no run, 90mph, short of length around off, Shanaka blocks from the crease

Mark Wood to Hasaranga, no run, 93mph short of length delivery that zips past the outside edge as Hasaranga pokes away from the body. Bowling rockets, Mark Wood
13.5
Mark Wood to Hasaranga, no run, short of length delivery just outside off, dabbed to point
13.4
Mark Wood to Hasaranga, no run, gets close but doesn't find the edge! 93mph, spears in a half-volley just outside off and Hasaranga just can't resist. He's terribly late though. It's gone storming through to the keeper
13.3
Mark Wood to Dickwella, out Caught by Morgan!! Oh dear - going from bad to worse. Dickwella gone now. Wood on a hat-trick. Full and fast, angled in from round the wicket towards off. Dickwella closes the face early looking to work through the on-side and chips a tame leading edge to cover. Wood was tumbling in his followthrough when all this happened. Dickwella c Morgan b Mark Wood 3(3)
13.2
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, out Caught by Bairstow!! Bairstow, with the gloves, has ended up taking this catch at square leg. That's how far he had to go. There was enough time for him to move though. This went up a mile off the top-edge with Mendis getting rushed on the pull. Bairstow does superbly well getting close to it, then has to put in a dive as well. Holds on. Sri Lanka continue to struggle. Kusal Mendis c Bairstow b Mark Wood 39(39) [4s-3 6s-1]
13.1
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, FOUR, backs away quite a bit, Wood tries to follow him but it's still in the slot for Mendis who mows it over mid-on. Enough to clear the infield
9.6
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, 1 run, 150kph! Mendis walks across a long way and scoops this short of length delivery. Not quite off the middle of the bat and fine leg takes it on the bounce after running to his right
9.5
Mark Wood to Kusal Perera, 1 run, 145kph, hurls a length ball on the pads and Perera helps it on its way to fine leg
9.4
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, 1 run, 148kph, opens his bat-face and uses the bowler's pace to guide this length ball down to third man
9.3
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, no run, 148kph, and again! Skiddy and pacy short of length delivery just outside off, Mendis stays leg-side of the ball and wants to run it down to third man. Beaten!
9.2
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, no run, 144kph, dug in short, keeps coming in with the angle. Mendis arches back to try and elevate it over the keeper/slip (vacant) cordon. Beaten for pace!
9.1
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, no run, 150kph, slot ball, Mendis goes hard on the lofted drive and miscues. Goes to mid-off on the bounce
7.6
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, 1 run, 146kph, slashes his bat hard on seeing a bit of width. The outside edge takes the ball down to third man
7.5
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, no run, that's one helluva comeback! 148kph, angles in and seams away from a length. Mendis gets squared up and is lucky not to get an outside edge
7.4
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, FOUR, finally, finally! 145kph, back of a length, Mendis waits for the ball on the back foot and cuts behind backward point. Third man sprints across and puts in a dive but in vain. First boundary of the innings!
7.3
Mark Wood to Kusal Perera, 1 run, strayed onto the pads, flicked down to fine leg
7.2
Mark Wood to Kusal Mendis, 1 run, 145kph, fullish in-angler, Mendis clears his front leg for a big hoick across the line and gets a fat outside edge. Third man slides to his left and makes a good stop taking it on the bounce. For a moment, it looked like Sri Lanka would get their first boundary...
7.1
Mark Wood to Kusal Perera, 1 run, 142kph, round the wicket, in-angling length ball on leg, Perera uses the angle to work it through backward square leg
