19.6: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, Oooh, that's touch and go, brave call from the umpire. Shaheen Afridi goes full and fast and slants it wide outside the line of off stump. Dasun Shanaka leaves it alone in hopes of a wide and the ball darts through to the keeper. It is called a fair delivery and Shanaka cannot believe it. Pin drop silence in Pallekele and Shanaka is down on his haunches, being consoled by Dunith Wellalage. Pakistan win by 5 runs!
19.5: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, Oh, no, what have you done, Dasun Shanaka? Full and wide outside off, in fact, it might have been a low full toss as well. Shanaka brings out the reverse scoop but fails to connect and Sri Lanka still need 6 runs off just one ball now.
19.4: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, SIX! This could end up being one of the greatest run chases in T20 World Cup history. Shaheen Afridi goes for the wide yorker but misses his length again and serves it in the slot. Dasun Shanaka nails it over deep cover for a biggie. Sri Lanka are just one hit away from the win now as Shanaka makes it a hat-trick of sixes.
19.3: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, SIX! OUTTA HERE! A leg cutter from Shaheen, but the length is all wrong. On a good length and at the stumps, right in the hitting arc. Dasun Shanaka stays put and just smokes it over deep mid-wicket with absolute disdain. 12 needed off 3 balls.
19.2: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, SIX! Wow, what a shot! What a time to pull it off as well from the Lankan skipper. Shaheen misses the yorker outside off and Dasun Shanaka just opens the face of the blade and dumps it over covers for a huge six. That's travelled well over 90 meters. 18 needed now off 4 balls.
19.1: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, FOUR! Goes away to the fence. Back of a length and outside off, Dasun Shanaka throws the hands at it and slices it over short third for a boundary.
18.6: Shadab Khan to Dunith Wellalage, Oh, not sure about that shot from Dunith Wellalage. Tossed up, fuller on off, Wellalage has a free hit but he goes for the reverse sweep and misses.
18.5: Shadab Khan to Dasun Shanaka, Shorter one outside off, lofted down to wide long off for just a single.
18.4: Shadab Khan to Dasun Shanaka, SIX! Can you believe it? Dasun Shanaka pulls off another big hit and brings up his FIFTY in style. A drag-down from Shadab, wide outside off, Shanaka keeps his shape and slaps it up and over extra cover for a six. 29 needed off 8 balls.
18.4: Shadab Khan to Dasun Shanaka, WIDE. Flatter delivery, flirting with the tramline outside off. Left alone for a wide.
18.3: Shadab Khan to Dasun Shanaka, Dragged length, wide outside off, Shanaka reaches out and hits it off the toe end of the blade, chipping it through covers for a couple of runs.
18.2: Shadab Khan to Dasun Shanaka, SIX! Dasun Shanaka doesn't want to throw in the towel just yet. Tossed up, full and on off, it is the leg break as well. Shanaka backs away to open up the off side and whacks it over wide long off for a 99-meter biggie.
18.1: Shadab Khan to Dunith Wellalage, Nagging length on leg, nurdled down to short fine leg for a single.
18.1: Shadab Khan to Dunith Wellalage, WIDE. A googly from Shadab, tossed up wide outside off and left alone by Dunith Wellalage.
17.6: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, A dot to end, 46 needed now off 12 balls. Slower one from around the wicket, Shanaka looks to tap and run but ends up nudging it back to the bowler.
17.5: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, FOUR! Sri Lanka still hanging in the chase. Yorker-length delivery, slightly wide outside off, Dasun Shanaka reaches out and squeezes it away through backward point for a boundary.
17.4: Shaheen Afridi to Dunith Wellalage, A low full toss, on the pads, flicked down to deep backward square leg for one.
17.3: Shaheen Afridi to Pavan Rathnayake, OUT! CAUGHT! A few overs too late for Pakistan and they don't even celebrate the wicket at all. Hard length from Shaheen Afridi, on middle and leg and bowls it slower too. Pavan Rathnayake stays put, clears the front leg and launches it high up towards long on. The ball just doesn't have the legs to clear the ropes and the substitute fielder, Saim Ayub pouches it comfortably. End of a fighting knock from Rathnayake.
17.2: Shaheen Afridi to Pavan Rathnayake, Fine delivery from Shaheen. Another yorker, just outside off, Rathnayake hangs back to drive but the ball slips under the willow and goes through.
17.1: Shaheen Afridi to Dasun Shanaka, A yorker on leg stump, a bit of reverse swing on offer as well. Dasun Shanaka clips it away to deep square leg for a run.
19.6: Dilshan Madushanka to Usman Khan, Two runs to end the first innings. Full and wide outside off, Usman Khan goes after it and squirts it away wide of short third. The ball rolls into the deep and the batters manage to scamper through for the second run. Pakistan finish with 212/8 on the board.
19.5: Dilshan Madushanka to Usman Khan, OUT! NASEEM SHAH IS RUN OUT! Fuller one outside off, Usman Khan swats it away to deep cover, where the fielder lets it slip through his hands. The batters pinch the second run but get a bit greedy and look for the third run, which is never there. Naseem ends up at the keeper's end just as Usman and Kamindu Mendis throws the ball back to the bowler. The bails are dislogded but there is some confusion regarding who is actually out here. Replays show that Usman grounded his bat, whereas Naseem had his willow dangling in the air.
19.4: Dilshan Madushanka to Naseem Shah, Length ball outside off, Naseem Shah reaches out and lofts it on the bounce to sweeper cover for a single.
19.3: Dilshan Madushanka to Shaheen Afridi, OUT! LBW! Too hot to handle for the batter and Shaheen Afridi starts walking off, not before signalling for the DRS, though. A straight yorker, right in the blockhole, tails back in a bit as well. Shaheen Afridi fails to dig it out and gets pinged on the back leg. Looked plumb to the naked eye and Ball Tracking confirms the same.
19.2: Dilshan Madushanka to Shaheen Afridi, FOUR! Oh, that's slipped out of the hands. A high full toss, around the waist, Shaheen Afridi reacts well and manages to flick it away, past short fine leg for a boundary. The umpires go upstairs for a No Ball check but it is deemed as a fair delivery.
19.1: Dilshan Madushanka to Sahibzada Farhan, OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the fielder and that marks the end of a fine, fine knock from Sahibzada Farhan. Dilshan Madushanka goes full and wide, in search of the yorker but doesn't get it spot-on. Farhan hangs back and looks to smoke it over long off but gets merely any elevation. Hits it firmly but straight to extra cover where Janith Liyanage takes a sharp catch right around his face.
18.6: Dasun Shanaka to Usman Khan, What an over from Shanaka! Slower one, fuller and outside off, Usman Khan reaches out but fails to connect. Usman even tries to scamper for a run but is sent back.
18.5: Dasun Shanaka to Usman Khan, FOUR! A streaky boundary but the 200 is now up for Pakistan. Banged in short and at the batter, Usman Khan charges down the track, swings aimlessly and gets a top edge that flies over short fine leg for a boundary.
18.4: Dasun Shanaka to Salman Agha, OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust and 176/0 has become 199/5 in a flash. Dasun Shanaka bowls it back of a length again and bangs it into the deck, wide outside off. Salman Agha reaches out to go big but splices it over the cover region. Maheesh Theekshana tracks back and takes a simple catch at the edge of the ring.
18.3: Dasun Shanaka to Salman Agha, Play and a miss! A slower short ball, outside off, Salman Agha hops up to cut but fails to connect.
18.2: Dasun Shanaka to Mohammad Nawaz, OUT! CAUGHT! A golden duck for Mohammad Nawaz and Sri Lanka keep chipping away with late wickets. Dasun Shanaka bowls this full and angles it well across off, Nawaz extends the arms to drive but does so in the air and hits it straight to extra cover. Maheesh Theekshana takes a smart low catch. Pakistan losing steam at the backend. They are 199/4.
18.1: Dasun Shanaka to Sahibzada Farhan, What a moment, and what a knock from Sahibzada Farhan. A 2ND HUNDRED IN THIS WORLD CUP. This is bowled full and outside off, Sahibzada Farhan drills it to long off for a single. Farhan punches the air in delight and this knock is one for the history books.
17.6: Dushmantha Chameera to Shadab Khan, OUT! SHADAB KHAN IS RUN OUT! A sacrificial wicket but it doesn't matter much at this stage. Low full toss and angled into the toes, Shadab Khan flicks it away wide of deep square leg for a single. Dilshan Madushanka in the deep is almost undone by the spin but does well to adjust and latch onto the ball to his left. The batters attempt for the second run but Madushanka throws it to the keeper, and Kamil Mishara whips off the bails with Shadab not even in the frame. Pakistan are 198/3.
17.5: Dushmantha Chameera to Sahibzada Farhan, Back of length and wide outside off, Farhan reaches out and taps it in front of point for a single.
17.4: Dushmantha Chameera to Sahibzada Farhan, FOUR! Belted down the ground. A low full toss, outside off, Sahibzada Farhan gets low and drills it to the right of mid off for a boundary.
17.4: Dushmantha Chameera to Sahibzada Farhan, WIDE. Chameera looks for the wide yorker but spills it way beyond the tramline outside off.
17.3: Dushmantha Chameera to Shadab Khan, Bowled full and at the stumps, clipped away to deep square leg for a single.
17.2: Dushmantha Chameera to Shadab Khan, FOUR! Predictable bowling and Shadab Khan puts it away. Back of a length, slanted well across off from around the stumps, Khan manages to slash it up and over backward point and the ball lands just inside the ropes for a one-bounce boundary.
17.1: Dushmantha Chameera to Shadab Khan, LBW SHOUT! Pitched up, full and around leg, Shadab Khan walks right across the off stump to flick but is beaten for pace. The ball thuds off his pads and rolls through backward square leg and the batters complete two runs. There is an appeal for LBW, which is turned down and it is reviewed as well. Nothing on UltraEdge but Ball Tracking shows that the ball is pitching outside the line of leg stump. The on-field call of NOT OUT stands. Leg byes added to the total.
