Al-Amin to Ramesh Mendis, SIX, length ball outside off, Mendis smokes it over midwicket. Finishes the innings in style

Al-Amin to Ramesh Mendis, SIX, full toss just outside off, Mendis shuffles across and swings it over backward square for a flat six

Ishan Jayaratne to Ramesh Mendis, FOUR, back of a length outside off, Mendis walks across and scoops it over short fine

Al-Amin to Nuwanidu Fernando, out Caught by Ishan Jayaratne!! Full outside off, Fernando hits it straight and finds long-off. Went flat to Jayaratne who took it comfortably pedaling back with the reverse-cup. Nuwanidu Fernando c Ishan Jayaratne b Al-Amin 7(9)

Kumara to Najibullah, out Caught by Sachindu Colombage!! Oh the fielder has taken it somehow. He almost overran it and then got lucky as the ball stuck in his hand over his head. Slower ball outside off, Najibullah reaches out and slices it up in front of sweeper cover. Colombage charges in so far that the ball is going over his head when he gets there. He sticks his hand out, and the ball sticks. Najibullah c Sachindu Colombage b Kumara 2(5)

Powell to Shanaka, out Caught by Gunaratne!! The leading edge has been taken at backward point. Shanaka goes. Length ball slanted in on off, cuts away off the pitch as he closes the face on it looking to clip it away. And it's a comfortable catch off the leading edge. Didn't look like an attempted leg-cutter, just went off the seam. Shanaka c Gunaratne b Powell 24(18) [4s-1 6s-2]

Powell to Shanaka, wide, slanted down leg, called wide

Powell to Shanaka, FOUR, walks across the stumps to scoop, manages to get underneath the length nicely and the execution is superb as well

Kumara to Sacha De Alwis, out Caught by Thomas!! Edged and gone. Makes room and looks to hit through extra, it's a full ball slanted across, and it takes the nick with the angle. Sacha De Alwis c Thomas b Kumara 6(7)

Sachindu Colombage to Shanaka, SIX, dances down and lofts it over long-on. Clears the fielder comfortably

Kamindu Mendis to Shanaka, SIX, that's been bowled halfway down the pitch, Shanaka rocks back and pulls it hard over midwicket

Sachindu Colombage to Maqsood, out Caught by Powell!! Overpitched again, Maqsood goes down the ground again but finds long-on this time. He wanted to go for the maximum, couldn't get under the ball as it was so full and thus there was not much elevation. Maqsood c Powell b Sachindu Colombage 11(11) [4s-2]

Sachindu Colombage to Maqsood, FOUR, overpitched on off, Maqsood clears the front leg and hammers it over the bowler's head

Al-Amin to Philip Salt, out Caught&Bowled!! Huge, huge breakthrough! The Salt blitzkrieg has finally ended. Was probably a slower ball, he was a touch early into the pick-up shot and could only sky this straight up in the air. Al-Amin trekked back a bit and got under the skier calmly. Quite sure that all the Kandy boys are heaving a sigh of relief now. That was some knock from Salt. He's set things up though, for Dambulla to post a huge total. Philip Salt c and b Al-Amin 64(27) [4s-4 6s-5]

Sachindu Colombage to Philip Salt, SIX, that's made a firecracker sound off the bat! Probably the googly, he's picked it and slog-swept powerfully over deep mid-wicket. This is some innings from Salt - he is batting on a different level these days

Sachindu Colombage to Philip Salt, FOUR, too short, too wide, Salt feasts on the width, cutting fiercely wide of backward point. You can understand why he isn't willing to toss them up but can't bowl this short surely

Sachindu Colombage to Maqsood, FOUR, hammered away! Loopy leg break but too full and wide, Maqsood leans across and blasts this over cover. Such power in the shot

Kumara to Dickwella, out Caught by A Perera!! That's some well-needed luck for Kandy! A juicy full toss that should have disappeared into the stands, has got them a wicket. Was a slower one, Dickwella had just one fielder to clear on the leg-side, he was in the ring and this was hit straight at him. Unfortunate for the left-hander but much-needed for Kandy although they would have preferred Philip Salt obviously. At least some respite you'd think. Dickwella c A Perera b Kumara 37(23) [4s-6]

Kumara to Dickwella, FOUR, the Dickwella ramp once again! Walks across early and scoops this over short fine leg

Sachindu Colombage to Philip Salt, SIX, brings up his fifty in style! Salt is going bonkers here. Long hop, too easy for a man in such form. He just sits back and pulls it easily over deep mid-wicket

Sachindu Colombage to Philip Salt, SIX, Salt continues with the onslaught! Steps out, gets to the pitch and clobbers this over cow corner. Clean as a whistle

Gunaratne to Dickwella, FOUR, to backward square leg

Gunaratne to Dickwella, FOUR, to backward square leg

Al-Amin to Philip Salt, FOUR, the mayhem continues, low full toss and Salt shuffles across to sweep it away through square leg

Al-Amin to Dickwella, FOUR, super shot! Dug in short, well outside off but Dickwella fetches it with a pull stroke, clearing square leg with ease. Nobody sweeping there

Ishan Jayaratne to Dickwella, FOUR, he finally gets hold of one of those ramps. Shuffled inside the line early and helped it easily over short fine leg. One bounce and into the hoardings

Gunaratne to Philip Salt, SIX, this is huge! Salt looking very ominous here. There is a long-on in place but that doesn't prevent him from going down the ground. Goes dead straight with the loft and hits this into the sightscreen. Wow!

Gunaratne to Philip Salt, FOUR, well, the pace won't matter if you bowl in the slot. This is loopy and full, Salt waits and launches straight over the bowler's head. Nonchalant stuff

Kumara to Philip Salt, SIX, Salt is carrying on from his savage T10 form here, just going hard from the get-go. Hasn't really middled this that well to be honest, still has enough wood to clear cow corner comfortably. Some power from the Englishman. Just cleared his front leg and went bang

Kumara to Philip Salt, FOUR, top edge, flies over the keeper and almost went all the way. Loads of pace from Kumara on this short ball, Salt clearly rushed on the pull. Top-edge but that pace proves to be Salt's saviour

Ishan Jayaratne to Dickwella, byes, FOUR, more poor fielding, this time from Thomas who lets one through. Was the premeditated scoop attempt from Dickwella. Missed it and so did the keeper. Bonus runs for Dambulla

Ishan Jayaratne to Dickwella, FOUR, loosener from Ishan Jayaratne to start with, very full and wide, Dickwella jams it away square through the point region. Races away to the fence
