FOUR! Faraz Akram to Dushmantha Chameera. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control past long off for 4 runs.

Richard Ngarava broke the top order of the home side but Janith Liyanage played a superb knock of 95 and just missed his well-deserved hundred.
