    Carroll to Mahela Jayawardene
    short, and that's driven off the back foot through point and that's the match
    9.5

    Carroll to Mahela Jayawardene
    dinked into the gully
    9.4
    0
    Carroll to Mahela Jayawardene
    "Bowled!" - that one came out of the back of the hand and the keeper loves it. You've got to admire the enthusiasm
    9.3
    0
    Carroll to Mahela Jayawardene
    full toss, and Jayawardene laughs after being taken by surprise, just driving that to cover
    9.2
    4
    Carroll to Mahela Jayawardene
    outside off and that's driven into (and not tino, as I just mistyped, wrong teams) the covers, ah, in front of point in fact
    9.1

    K O'Brien to Jayasuriya
    dragged down and that's driven into the covers
    8.4

    K O'Brien to Jayasuriya
    outside off, again, and this time picks the gap through the covers

    outside off and that's driven to the covers
    8.2

    K O'Brien to Jayasuriya
    outside off, driven firmly to cover where Rankin closes on that one well, to his right
    8.1
    0
    K O'Brien to Jayasuriya
    on the money first up, right up there, and that's defended well
    7.6
    0
    Botha to Mahela Jayawardene
    outside off and angles that in well at the righthander, who defends down
    7.5
    0
    Botha to Mahela Jayawardene
    right up there and defended into the leg side
    7.4
    0
    Botha to Mahela Jayawardene
    outside off again and that's cut down, into the ground, the batsman not timing that at all
    7.3
    0
    Botha to Mahela Jayawardene
    slower ball outside off, picked, and just driven into the covers
    7.2
    4
    Botha to Mahela Jayawardene
    short, on off, and that's pulled easily through square. Sri Lanka are making this look very very easy indeed
    7.1
    0
    Botha to Mahela Jayawardene
    outside off and that's defended to Johnston in the covers, who bowls the ball back to the bowler, perhaps giving himself a hint that he wants a go
    6.6
    1
    Rankin to Mahela Jayawardene
    on leg, and that's tucked well to the man inside the rope
    6.5
    0
    Rankin to Mahela Jayawardene
    outside off, on a very good length, sailing past the batsman, who chooses to leave the ball very early
