WGunathilaka c Dhoni b Bumrah
Bumrah to Gunathilaka, out Caught by Dhoni!! Ripleys .. Exposes his stumps by backing away - you read that right - and throws his arms at the ball. Thin edge to the keeper. There was no need to do that. What Bumrah did well was to stick to the original line and not follow the batsman down leg, like how you would in the death over to cramp him for room.

3.3
Bumrah to Gunathilaka, no run, cramped on the room for the back foot punch, so all he could do was mistime it back down the pitch
3.2
Bumrah to Gunathilaka, no run, mad rush of blood.. Thumps his front foot and swings across the angle, wanting to go big over cow corner. Nah, not this time. Bumrah beats him
3.1
Bumrah to Gunathilaka, no run, skids it on and raps the thigh. Can't be out; pitched outside leg
2.6
Bhuvneshwar to Tharanga, no run, you can't be playing those like that. Length ball scissoring away, Tharanga again has a poke outside off, with the bat face introvertedly closed, and is beaten. Bhuvneshwar is getting the ball to seam away from the line of the stumps, so this over the wicket angle becomes doubly dangerous
1.5
Bumrah to Gunathilaka, no run, and again. Beats him again. Even fuller, enticing him for the drive but there's enough juice in the pitch now. Decks further away and flummoxes Gunathilaka
1.4
Bumrah to Gunathilaka, no run, tempter now and Bumrah's beaten Gunathilaka again. Gets him driving and moves the ball just a wee bit away outside off
1.3
Bumrah to Tharanga, 1 run, gully dives leftward and stops that outside edge. Karthik there. Credit to Tharanga for not going hard at it. Didn't use his feet, which is why there was an edge in the corridor of uncertainty
0.5
Bhuvneshwar to Tharanga, 1 run, chases one away from the body. Uppish, bounces somewhere near vacant short third man. The man is stationed deep
0.2
Bhuvneshwar to Gunathilaka, no run, not as full, so Gunathilaka could open the bat face in sync with the outswing
0.1
Bhuvneshwar to Gunathilaka, no run, gets some shape rightaway. Full and arounf off from over the wicket, Gunathilaka blocks
