20.5
Haris Rauf to Samarawickrama, SIX, Samarawickrama now does it. Last over both batters played similar late-cuts for four. This time similar pulls for six. 73m shot. Dug in short outside off, Samarawickrama pulls easily over deep square leg. Again Rauf not getting the short ball high enough

20.3
Haris Rauf to Kusal Mendis, SIX, wow! What a shot. Kusal Mendis is ready for the pull, this is not as menacing or troubling, Mendis pulls way back over deep square leg, flies away, this short ball did not rise near the collarbone, that's why Mendis did not face any issue
20.3
Haris Rauf to Kusal Mendis, wide, dug in short outside off, way too short and Rizwan had to leap to haul it back in. An easy call for a wide

18.3
Haris Rauf to Samarawickrama, 2 runs, dug in short outside off, Samarawickrama rocks back and pulls through vacant mid-wicket, long chase for Imam from deep square leg and he gets there
18.2
Haris Rauf to Samarawickrama, no run, length delivery outside off, wide as well, Samarawickrama hangs his bat well away from the body and taps it near him, not a convincing shot
18.1
Haris Rauf to Samarawickrama, no run, short of length and nips back in to middle and leg, Samarawickrama is rapped on the pads high and it would have gone over. That's why no appeal for LBW
13.6
Haris Rauf to Kusal Mendis, 2 runs, hard good length outside off, Kusal Mendis opens the face of the bat and runs it to third man and they come back for two. Haris Rauf with a loud growl at the fielder, he is not happy that the 2nd was given there, walks away angrily

11.5
Haris Rauf to Nissanka, FOUR, 146kph, short outside off, the width was there and Haris Rauf is not happy with that delivery, kicks the turf in disgust, Nissanka helps it over backward point and it nearly flies all the way, one bounce over the ropes at deep backward point
11.4
Haris Rauf to Nissanka, no run, 147.5kph, high bouncer and Nissanka is beaten on the pull, close to the glove, but nothing, Nissanka was certainly late on the shot

9.3
Haris Rauf to Nissanka, no run, what a ball! Haris Rauf is appealing for caught behind but nothing on that. 143.9kph, short of length angling into fourth-stump line, then opens Nissanka up, holds its line to beat the bat
9.2
Haris Rauf to Nissanka, no run, full on off, Nissanka gets forward to defend to cover. Solidly played
9.1
Haris Rauf to Nissanka, FOUR, just over backward point's leap! Full and outside off, Nissanka drives in the air and backward point is a few paces inside the 30-yard ring, had he been right back, would have been an easier catch. This does not even touch the fingers on the leap
