Josh Hazlewood to Dhananjaya de Silva
OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Josh Hazlewood gets the breakthrough but is it too late! A low full toss on middle. Dhananjaya de Silva makes a bit of room and looks to go over covers but the bat turns in his hands and lobs straight back to Josh who stretches his right hand out and takes it. There was not much celebration as now only a flurry of wickets will do for Australia! 37 needed in 40 balls.

Jhye Richardson to Pathum Nissanka
OUT! TAKEN! What a catch by David Warner! A special effort was needed to get rid of a man who have done all the damage! Pathum Nissanka, what an innings! A length ball, outside off, slower. Nissanka tries to loft it over covers but fails to power it. Warner runs from the infield and keeps his eyes on the ball. He takes his over his shoulder a one-handed stunner as he gets his left-hand out.
