W
P Jayasuriya to Babar Azam, out Lbw!! Babar is struck on the pad and the finger goes up. That looked very adjacent. Babar hesitantly walks up to Imam for a chat before signalling for the review. Nothing on UltraEdge. And ball-tracking shows it's crashing into middle. Babar goes after a brisk 24. Tossed up from round the wicket, he got a good stride forward to defend, but it drifted in and then slid on with the arm to beat the inside edge. Impact was on off, and it would've smashed into middle. Three reds. Babar Azam lbw b P Jayasuriya 24(28) [4s-5]

P Jayasuriya to Babar Azam, no run, massive appeal for LBW. It's not given, but Sri Lanka are very enthusiastic about it. They take the review. Oh this seems to be sliding down leg. Floated up, drifts in from round the wicket, and goes past the inside edge on the forward defence. The ball hasn't turned at all after pitching, it's going with the arm and missing leg
12.6
W
P Jayasuriya to Imam, out Noman Ali Run Out!! 1 run completed. This is very poor from Pakistan! A run out at this stage! Noman looks helplessly at Imam who responds with "aap bhago toh sahi", roughly translating to you should've run faster. He nudges this in the gap through midwicket, takes a very risky second run and Noman isn't quick enough indeed.

W
P Jayasuriya to Masood, out Caught by Nishan Madushka!! Another one for Jayasuriya! Madushka takes a good catch at short leg. It took an inside edge, popped up off the pad and was going over Madushka who reached out and grabbed it. Masood goes! He came dancing down, wasn't quite to the pitch and tried to defend.

W
P Jayasuriya to Shafique, out Caught by Samarawickrama!! Samarawickrama has caught that between his legs. Finger goes up, but Shafique doesn't think he's got an edge, he goes for a review. Everyone eagerly waiting for UltraEdge which is taking some time to build. Here it is, and it shows a clear spike next to the bat. Shafique was caught in the crease there, with his front foot going nowhere. Floated up on off, he looks to defend from the crease and it turns away, taking a faint edge to the keeper.
