SL Inngs
Vandersay to Webster, out Caught by Kamindu Mendis!! Lovely low catch and he's got rid of Webster! Tossed up full outside off, Webster cleared his front-leg looking to carve that up and over cover. Couldn't quite get the elevation and he sliced it low to Kamindu Mendis at cover. He got down quickly and held on to a sharp catch. Vandersay is pleased as Webster trudges off gesturing he wanted to go over cover. Webster c Kamindu Mendis b Vandersay 23(50) [4s-1]
Prabath Jayasuriya to Josh Inglis, out Caught by Kamindu Mendis!! Another leading edge and Inglis has popped a sitter to cover, end of a superb hand and he walks away to another round of applause from the Australian supporters. PJ slowed down the pace, drifted one into the right-hander and beat the charging right-hander with the flight, the ball dipped onto Inglis who was looking to whip it through the on-side, caught the leading edge and lobbed into the hands of Kamindu Mendis. Josh Inglis c Kamindu Mendis b Prabath Jayasuriya 102(94) [4s-10 6s-1]
Prabath Jayasuriya to Khawaja, out Caught by Kusal Mendis!! Khawaja has been given OUT caught behind, he turns around and walks off, that's the end of a marathon innings from the opener. Was pushed through flatter and quicker of off, Khawaja hung back, opened the face of the bat and looked to drop it onto the off-side, gets a thin edge and the keeper does the rest. A massive round of applause as he walks back to the dressing room. Khawaja c Kusal Mendis b Prabath Jayasuriya 232(352) [4s-16 6s-1]
Vandersay to Smith, out Lbw!! Sri Lanka review for lbw against Smith. This looks close. 80kph, Vandersay attacks the stumps and there's hardly any turn on this occasion. Smith presses forward to defend and gets beaten on the inside edge as he expects the ball to spin away. Flat line on UltraEdge. The impact is in front of off as he gets rapped on the back leg. Here's ball-tracking and it's three reds - hitting off! Successful review and the marathon 266-run stand comes to an end. Smith lbw b Vandersay 141(251) [4s-12 6s-2]
Vandersay to Labuschagne, out Caught by Dhananjaya!! Gone this time. DdS at slip makes no mistake as he takes a low catch in front of him. Nicely tossed up outside off, Labuschagne with a nothing shot, poking at it with an open face and the outside-edge goes low to the Sri Lankan captain. He could have left that alone but played at it. A timely wicket for Sri Lanka just before lunch. Labuschagne c Dhananjaya b Vandersay 20(50) [4s-2]
Prabath Jayasuriya to Head, out Caught by Chandimal!! Shouts of catch it and it's taken in the deep at long-on! You live by the sword and die by it - Travis Head perishes. Full outside off, Head stepped out looking to go downtown, the execution was wrong this time though, it came right off the toe end and he holed out to Chandimal who was waiting down at long-on. Big breakthrough for the Sri Lankans, boy did they need that. Entertaining knock from Head but it's over. Head c Chandimal b Prabath Jayasuriya 57(40) [4s-10 6s-1]
