Theekshana to Tapiwa Mufudzaq, no run, Sri Lanka review for an lbw. Is it spinning too much? Was bowled from the back of the hand and on a fuller length on off, spun in to go past Mufudzaq's attempted front foot defence to ping him on the front pad. Time for the replays. The ball-tracking rolls in and hitting is umpire's call. Umpire Marais Erasmus has a smile on his face.
42.3
Theekshana to Muzarabani, out Muzarabani Run Out!! Another one bites the dust! Drifting in towards the leg-stump, Muzarabani tucks it towards backward square leg and takes off for a non-existent run.

Quick through the air and on a length on middle, straightens a touch, Faraz is rooted to the crease and plays down the wrong line to get trapped in front. The umpire has no hesitation to rule it out. Faraz rightly doesn't waste the review. Faraz lbw b Theekshana 1(6)
