Chameera to C de Silva, FOUR, Chaturanga ends the innings with a boundary! Not really intentional, as he shuffled across for the paddle scoop, ended up gloving it away but got it fine down the leg-side. No chance for the keeper or short fine leg. Jaffna finish with a mammoth 207/6!

Chameera to C de Silva, byes, 1 run, short of a length, pacy, C de Silva slashes and misses. They have to sneak in the bye, and they do it as Perera was charging down quickly. Direct hit would have taken him out though!

Chameera to Perera, 1 run, wide low full toss, makes Perera reach and he slices it one-handed towards wide long-off. Could have had a brace there but Perera is probably out of gas a bit

Chameera to Perera, FOUR, he's just peppering the field here as he wishes! Another yorker gone wrong, low full toss and Perera whips it away behind square through the leg-side. Fast hands, strong bottom hand and not many has more power than him in the game

Chameera to Perera, SIX, another explosive fifty from Perera! Second one on the trot and both have been destructive knocks. Another full toss, he takes full toll, swiping it over deep mid-wicket. Bigger part of the ground that side, he still clears it with ease

Naveen-ul-Haq to Hasaranga, out Caught by Kusal Perera!! Edged and taken! Hasaranga tried to make room for the inside out loft, Naveen-ul-Haq followed him with a fullish in-angler, cramping the batter for room. Thereby inducing a faint edge. Kusal Perera makes no mistake behind the sticks. Hasaranga c Kusal Perera b Naveen-ul-Haq 2(3)

Naveen-ul-Haq to Perera, SIX, bang! Naveen-ul-Haq had gotten away with a few freebies in this over but not this time. Feeds another full toss, around his hips and he dispatches it over fine leg. Shorter boundary that side, not that it matters when Perera hits them

Chameera to Perera, SIX, this is the biggest hit of the game! The first one that Perera has really middled well and he's sent this many rows back over cow corner. Picks the slower ball early, it's in his arc and has been clouted with brute force. Chameera has taken a pasting here - 23 off the over!

Chameera to Perera, SIX, misses his length again, back of a length and Perera is already backing away for the heave. Whacks it over deep square leg for a flat maximum

Chameera to Perera, SIX, juicy full toss, on the hips and Perera dismisses it from his presence with a ruthless pick-up shot over deep square leg. Monster blow from the skipper. He's warming up nicely for the final assault here

Chameera to Perera, FOUR, misses the yorker and feeds a pacy low full toss that Perera accepts with glee. Drills it straight back past the bowler and the diving long-on fielder can't get to this

Priyanjan to Ashen Bandara, out Caught by T de Silva!! Gone this time! Bandara has done his job though! Came charging down again, Priyanjan pushed this wider and it was sliding across with the angle. Bandara's attempted swipe only ended up as a big slice that went only as far as backward point. A well-paced knock from Bandara, did struggle a lot initially but has made up for it. Ashen Bandara c T de Silva b Priyanjan 42(30) [4s-3 6s-1]

Priyanjan to Ashen Bandara, FOUR, another sensational shot from Bandara! His footwork is the key in these shots, down the track in a jiffy and then going dead straight with the smash-loft. Almost took the ump out with the hit. Excellent batting!

Priyanjan to Ashen Bandara, FOUR, there he goes again! Bandara is shifting gears here, stepping out and going with the turn, wristing powerfully wide of mid-wicket. Huge gap between deep mid-wicket and long-on, and Bandara picks it

Priyanjan to Ashen Bandara, SIX, well, Bandara has broken the shackles! And about time too you'd think as he desperately needed a move on. Chose the right match-up, taking on the offie with a straight loft after using his feet. Was fired in by Priyanjan and it got the maximum punishment

Chameera to Perera, FOUR, short and wide, asking for trouble as Perera frees his arms, slicing away with great power past backward point. Banton could have done better in the ring

Prasanna to Shoaib Malik, out Caught by Priyanjan!! Prasanna strikes with his final ball of the night! And it's a huge strike, because he's dislodged Shoaib Malik. Was floated up but the length wasn't there for the loft. Malik was down the track early, and went through the shot, skying it straight down long-off's throat. Shoaib Malik c Priyanjan b Prasanna 44(24) [4s-4 6s-2]

Prasanna to Kohler-Cadmore, out Caught&Bowled!! Gone this time! Almost the replica of the previous delivery, just that this time, the ball carried to Prasanna who takes a fine moving catch to his left. Was another slower leg break, Kohler-Cadmore once again closed the bat face too early. Didn't get the luck he got previous ball. End of a breezy innings. He has given the platform and momentum for Jaffna with this knock. Kohler-Cadmore c and b Prasanna 40(21) [4s-3 6s-3]

T de Silva to Kohler-Cadmore, SIX, launches the Free Hit over deep mid-wicket! Kohler-Cadmore is hitting them so sweetly, that it's ominous signs for the bowlers. He nearly got a century in the recent T10 League, might be in the mood for something similar today. Another slot ball, he dismantles it over wide long-on with another of his pick-up shots. Makes powerhitting look like artistry

T de Silva to Kohler-Cadmore, SIX, the no-look swagger pick-up! Ah, the nonchalance from Kohler-Cadmore. Got one in his arc and just drop-kicked this high over deep mid-wicket. Got plenty of height on the shot and also the optimum distance. Superb batting. He's surely in the mood tonight

T de Silva to Shoaib Malik, 1 run, full and angling into the pads, clipped away through backward square leg

Naveen-ul-Haq to Kohler-Cadmore, SIX, another slower ball, Kohler-Cadmore is ready this time, hanging back and delaying the bat swing on the pull shot to get the clean connection. Easily over wide long-on

Keemo Paul to Shoaib Malik, FOUR, runs coming thick and fast now! Not clever bowling from Paul though, straying on the pads with fine leg up in the circle. Malik shuffles a bit and tickles it away fine down the leg-side. Easy pickings

Keemo Paul to Shoaib Malik, FOUR, short and wide, that's asking for trouble. Malik cuts it away fiercely through point. Went off the bat like a rocket

Prasanna to Kohler-Cadmore, FOUR, long-hop, leg-lined and Kohler-Cadmore doesn't need a second invitation. Rocks back quickly and pulls it hard, beating the square leg fielder comfortably

Prasanna to Shoaib Malik, FOUR, beautifully timed! There is a long-off in place but he is straight and Malik places this back foot punch much wide of that man, got it through extra cover and it was always headed to the fence

Chameera to Avishka Fernando, out Caught by Prasanna!! Sliced down third man's throat! Fernando was looking a touch too eager in playing the big shots, and perishes in the process. Gets rushed for pace and as a result, the slash-cut flies off the outside half of the blade. Field was set for this kind of a misadventure and Fernando has to make the long walk back. Avishka Fernando c Prasanna b Chameera 4(5) [4s-1]

Chameera to Avishka Fernando, FOUR, banged away! Width on offer and the length is a tad shorter than the previous delivery, Fernando stands tall and flays it on the up through point. Using all of Chameera's pace

Prasanna to Kohler-Cadmore, FOUR, up and over! Slowed down considerably by Prasanna, but he gets the length too full. Kohler-Cadmore stands still and goes through the line, one bounce and into the long-off fence

Prasanna to Gurbaz, out Caught by T de Silva!! Wicket first ball! Perfect start for Colombo. Leg break that's not full enough, Gurbaz wanted to go inside out, ended up slicing it high. Only as far as backward point. Some turn for Prasanna to work with, that's encouraging for the spinner. Gurbaz c T de Silva b Prasanna 0(1)
