0.1 Rajitha to Naim, wide, hint of inswing but he fails to control it. It's down the leg-side

Maheesh Theekshana, right-arm off break, comes into the attack

1.3 Theekshana to Mehidy Hasan Miraz, FOUR, inswinger from Theekshana, still it's wide enough that Mehidy goes for the cut! He manages to slice it away past slip for four
