Wanindu Hasaranga to George Linde
NOT OUT! Tossed up ball, on middle. Linde gets low and tries to sweep but misses. He gets rapped on the front pad. Hasaranga appeals for an LBW and the umpire straightaway raises his dreaded finger. Linder immediately opts for a review. UltraEdge shows there is no bat involved. Ball Tracking shows that the ball is pitching outside leg. George Linde survives.

The ball goes off the top edge towards deep mid-wicket. Kamindu Mendis is stationed there and takes the catch with ease. Sri Lanka one wicket away now.

DROPPED! Mickey Arthur is not happy with the dropped catch. Loopy ball on middle, Keshav Maharaj heaves it to long on. The fielder there settles under it but spills it out. It wouldn't have mattered anyway as it is a NO BALL. Not enough fielders inside the circle! Naughty Shanaka!
