DDS walks off to a rousing reception from his teammates. Dhananjaya c Brandon King b Justin Greaves 120(168) [4s-17]

Justin Greaves to Dhananjaya, FOUR, edged and four, fuller length delivery and well wide of off - DDS throws his hand son the drive and the thick edge flies wide of gully, runs away to the ropes

Justin Greaves to Dhananjaya, no run, a direct hit and might've been struggling - he did put in the dive, but would've been futile, dabbed to the right of slip and Milan Rathnayake was charging down for a quick single, only to be sent back

Alzarri Joseph to Milan Rathnayake, no run, edged and Joshua Da Silva has put down abother chance today, on a good length and holding its line outside off, straightens onto the left-hander and finds the outside edge - went to the keeper's late and he reacted late, brushes the gloves and goes down. It'sa his 3rd drop of the day

Alzarri Joseph to Milan Rathnayake, FOUR, 250 up for Sri Lanka! On a length outside off, Rathnayake has enough room to free his arms. He square drives it past the right side of backward point to find the fence

Jayden Seales to Dhananjaya, FOUR, just over the leaping Roston Chase at third slip! A skiddy short of length delivery outside off, a bit of extra bounce. Silva tries to glide it behind but is not in control of the stroke. Chase leaps full length and stretches his right hand up but it evades him and goes through

Jayden Seales to Dhananjaya, FOUR, there it is! 13th Test century for Dhananjaya! He has been a class apart with his strokeplay on a surface that has provided enough for the seamers throughout the day. He leaps and pumps his fist in the air. Then he takes his helmet off, has his hands aloft and soaks in all the applause from his mates. Coming back to the delivery - it was fullish on off, Dhananjaya got into a good position and flicked it nonchalantly through wide mid-on to reach the milestone

Shamar Joseph to Milan Rathnayake, FOUR, easy pickings! Fullish delivery on the pads, Rathnayake stays well-balanced and flicks it with good timing through backward square leg. The man in the deep hares across to his right but can't reach it in time to stop it

Roach to Dhananjaya, FOUR, shot! Shortish delivery outside off, sits up nicely for Dhananjaya. He swivels across and pulls it with authority through mid-wicket to get the desired result. Struck that one really well

Shamar Joseph to Dhananjaya, FOUR, the intention might have been to take a single or double but he gets a boundary in fact. A short of length delivery around off, Dhananjaya hangs back and glides it nicely behind backward point. The fielder in the deep hares across to his left but can't prevent the boundary. Shamar Joseph is not pleased with the effort

Roach to Dinusha, out Lbw!! Sonal Dinusha has been trapped in front. He ponders about it and eventually takes the review. Impact doesn't matter as he didn't play a shot. Was a back of a length delivery in the channel, skidded through after landing. A misjudgement from Dinusha as he thought that like the previous three deliveries this one will also shape away but it didn't and continued coming in with the natural round the wicket angle. He lifts his bat to let it through but is struck on the pads. Ball-tracking comes into play and reveals that hitting is umpire's call - it would have crashed into the top of off. Brilliant setup from Roach. He was taking away the deliveries from the southpaw but got one to seam back in nicely to catch him off-guard. Is this the opening West Indies needed? Dinusha lbw b Roach 43(75) [4s-6]

Justin Greaves to Dhananjaya, FOUR, creamed, too full and too wide from Greaves - DDS leans into the drive and then caresses it into the gap past extra-cover, runs away to the ropes in a hurry

Jayden Seales to Dinusha, no run, a huge shout for LBW and West Indies have reviewed. Dinusha was pinned right in front, but was the angle taking it down leg? Jayden Seales is coming from round the wicket - no bat and UltraEdge confirms the same. Onto ball-tracking: It's just clipping the leg-stump and will stay with Ahsan Raza's call - NOT OUT, but West Indies will not lose their review

Jayden Seales to Dinusha, FOUR, beautifully played, fraction short and wide of off - Dinusha gets onto his toes and then rides the bounce on the cut, places it behind square on the off-side for a boundary

Jayden Seales to Dhananjaya, FOUR, nicely played, too full and at the stumps - DDS leans forward, presents the full face of the bat and then punches it straight of mid-on, runs away to the ropes

Shamar Joseph to Kusal Mendis, out Caught by Justin Greaves!! SHA JO strikes! Loose from Kusal Mendis as he looks to drive one outside off.

Kusal Mendis c Justin Greaves b Shamar Joseph 0(4)

Shamar Joseph to Chandimal, out, bowled! That's an absolute corker from Shamar and the missed chance hasn't cost them a lot - was full and there was a hint of swing back into the right-hander, Chandimal doesn't account for the movement, looks to work it onto the on-side, ended up playing all around the ball and missed it completely. The ball crashes into the off-stump and Chandimal's fighting innings ends. Chandimal b Shamar Joseph 54 (67) [4s-8]

Roach to Chandimal, no run, on a length, takes the edge, Da Silva behind the sticks drops it. Got two hands to his right but the ball popped out. That was a length delivery, outside off, nipped away to take the edge. Roach didn't show much emotion but he must be gutted

Alzarri Joseph to Kamindu Mendis, out Caught by John Campbell!! Two in two for Alzarri! He is on fire! Alzarri switches to round the wicket and bowls a 134.8kph length delivery in the channel. It pitches and straightens just enough to open Kamindu up in his stance. He leans ahead a bit and pushes at it tentatively only to get a thick outside edge behind. Campbell at first slip gets low to his right to take a sharp catch. That was traveling but he made it look simple. Kamindu Mendis c John Campbell b Alzarri Joseph 0(1)

Alzarri Joseph to Nishan Madushka, out Lbw!! Alzarri gets it right this time and he reaps the reward! A full delivery on off, swinging in, Madushka tries to flick it across but gets beaten on the inside edge to get rapped in front. The umpire has no hesitation to rule it out. Madushka has a chat with Dinesh Chandimal and the senior pro rightly tells him not to take the review. Ball-tracking reveals that it would have crashed into the leg-stump. Nishan Madushka lbw b Alzarri Joseph 23(27) [4s-3 6s-1]

Alzarri Joseph to Nishan Madushka, SIX, Nishan Madushka is taking his chances! Not a good start from Alzarri. Short and wide, there to be hit and Madushka obliges.

Jayden Seales to Nishan Madushka, FOUR, dropped! 130kph back of a length delivery outside off, seaming away a bit with extra bounce. Nishan Madushka can't quite get on top of the bounce as he slashes at it and gets a top-edge. Joshua Da Silva leaps and gets a part of his right hand to it but it bursts through. It perhaps came quicker to him than he expected but he should have taken that

Jayden Seales to Chandimal, FOUR, streaky but counts! Full delivery outside off, swinging away, Chandimal has a chance to free his arms and he does so. He throws his bat at it and it flies off the outer half over fourth slip for a boundary

Roach to Pathum Nissanka, out Caught by Amir Jangoo!! Kemar Roach strikes in the first over and he is cock-a-hoop! The trap was set for Nissanka and he has fallen prey to it. This is the third time that Roach has dismissed Nissanka at this venue. Roach goes a bit wider of the crease and angles in a back of a length delivery sharply towards the hips of Nissanka. He is cramped for space. He hops and tucks it across but only manages to play it uppishly towards backward short leg. Jangoo stationed there gets low and takes it nicely with both hands. There was a bit of extra bounce as well and Nissanka couldn't handle it. Good field placement from Roston Chase as well. Pathum Nissanka c Amir Jangoo b Roach 2(6)
