    Tremlett to Upul Tharanga
    there it is! Hundred for Tharanga and victory for Sri Lanka as he drives through the covers... emphatic way to end a brilliant run chase
    39.2
    0
    Tremlett to Upul Tharanga
    has a swing and gets a thick inside edge into the leg side but the single is turned down
    39.1
    0
    Tremlett to Upul Tharanga
    ooh, gives himself room to try and drive but mistimes it back to the bowler
    38.6
    0
    Swann to Dilshan
    this is given so much air and is so slow, but still Dilshan defends...a good natured finish to the match
    38.5
    0
    Swann to Dilshan
    now we have an exaggerated block from Dilshan to basically a long hop
    38.4
    4
    Swann to Dilshan
    steps back and cuts through the off side...lovely shot, but that won't help Tharanga
    38.3
    1
    Swann to Upul Tharanga
    worked down the ground...they'll happily get them in singles
    38.2
    1
    Swann to Dilshan
    played gently down to long off
    38.1
    1
    Swann to Upul Tharanga
    driven inside-out over extra cover
    37.6
    0
    Tremlett to Dilshan
    plays for his partner and defends to the leg side
    37.6
    2
    Tremlett to Upul Tharanga
    fired well down the leg side, excellent stop by Prior but they steal another extra as well
    37.5
    1
    Tremlett to Dilshan
    another short ball which is helped out to deep square...looks like Dilshan has cramp. Shall we have two runners?
    37.4
    1
    Tremlett to Upul Tharanga
    pulls this one away out to deep square...will he have a word with his team-mate to block a few?
    37.3
    0
    Tremlett to Upul Tharanga
    round the wicket, goes for a pull but it comes off the bottom of the bat
    37.2
    4
    Tremlett to Upul Tharanga
    there are four of them, stands tall and scythes it away over backward point when offered a hint of width...no holding back
    37.1
    1
    Tremlett to Dilshan
    back of a length, cut firmly down to third man
    36.6
    1
    Swann to Dilshan
    tucked off his pads so he keeps the strike
    36.5
    4
    Swann to Dilshan
    there it is, a brilliant hundred for Dilshan...another cut shot brings him the boundary he needed, this time it was placed with the power to beat the infield. A moment to savour for Dilshan who is having a wonderful tournament
    36.4
    2
    Swann to Dilshan
    steps back and cuts between cover and backward point...Dilshan still quick between the wickets
    36.3
    0
    Swann to Dilshan
    defended back to the bowler
