Pakistan vs Sri Lanka, 3rd Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Mohammad Wasim to Janith Liyanage, FOUR, full delivery outside off stump, Liyanage waits and smashes it hard through cover for a handy hit to the fence

Salman Mirza to Hasaranga, out Caught by Sahibzada Farhan!! Short delivery outside off stump, Hasaranga stays leg-side and guides this over the off-side but picks out the man at deep third. Tried to get a maximum but perished. Hasaranga c Sahibzada Farhan b Salman Mirza 11(12) [4s-1]

Salman Mirza to Janith Liyanage, FOUR, shortish delivery on the leg stump, Liyanage gets inside the line and helps it away fine over short fine leg

Mohammad Wasim to Janith Liyanage, FOUR, short delivery from Mohammad Wasim, Liyanage backs away and guides it over short third man

Abrar Ahmed to Hasaranga, FOUR, flighted delivery from Abrar Ahmed, Hasaranga leans forward and lofts the drive over extra-cover

Abrar Ahmed to Janith Liyanage, SIX, advances and hits this flighted delivery back over the bowler's head for a lovely maximum. Brings the 100 up for Sri Lanka

Salman Mirza to Janith Liyanage, 1 run, full delivery, Liyanage drives to cover. Direct-hit fro Fakhar would have been curtains for Janith Liyanage

Nawaz to Kamindu Mendis, out Caught by Mohammad Wasim!! This is high, is it long? No, brilliantly taken at deep mid-wicket. Wasim was close to the rope. He took the catch, was overbalancing, just released the ball in time before stepping over the rope. Got back in again and completed the catch to make it look so simple. Full delivery from Nawaz, Kamindu Mendis goes for the slog-sweep, seemed like six but Wasim's brilliant buys Nawaz another wicket and he's rocked the middle-order. Kamindu Mendis c Mohammad Wasim b Nawaz 3(7)

Nawaz to Shanaka, out Bowled!! Two in two. Sri Lanka have had collapses of late and they definitely wouldn't want one tonight. The quick arm ball, Shanaka looks to defend, is late and the ball sneaks through to knock out the leg stump. The SL captain bags a golden duck. Shanaka b Nawaz 0(1)

Nawaz to Kusal Perera, out Bowled!! Oh throught the gate. Perera wanted to just push this flighted delivery towards cover, left a bat-pad gap and the ball sneaked through to hit the off stump. Important wicket this as Perera was set. Sri Lanka need to rebuild again. Kusal Perera b Nawaz 25(19) [4s-2 6s-1]

Saim Ayub to Kusal Perera, SIX, much-needed hit! Absolute rank long hop from Saim Ayub, Perera waited to belt the pull over backward square leg

Abrar Ahmed to Nissanka, out Caught by Babar Azam!! Hit flat and Babar intervenes at long-off. Fullish delivery on the stumps, Nissanka steps out to go big, hit it hard so didn't get the height. Babar ran to the right nicely to pouch it safely. Sri Lanka three down and Nissanka's struggle ends. Nissanka c Babar Azam b Abrar Ahmed 17(23) [4s-1]

Abrar Ahmed to Kusal Perera, FOUR, that's four straight balls past the leg stump from Abrar Ahmed and Kusal Perera manages to pull this past the man at short fine to get the boundary

Faheem Ashraf to Kusal Perera, FOUR, drags this wide of mid-on. Oh the Pakistani skipper tried to flick it back multiple times but the ball still escapes to the fence. Short of a length delivery to round off the over and Perera manages to end the powerplay on a high

Faheem Ashraf to Kusal Mendis, out Kusal Mendis Run Out!! 1 run completed. Kusal was smart to use the pace on this short of length delivery and guide past short third man but he wasn't wise to take the second run. It's Wasim who has a great arm and fires a flat throw from third man. Whether it's Wasim or not the run wasn't on. Mendis chanced his arm and was found short despite a full length dive. Gift of a wicket for Pakistan. Replay confirms that Mendis wasn't even looking at the ball while turning and blindly called for the second run. Kusal Mendis run out (Mohammad Wasim/Usman Khan) 3(6)

Faheem Ashraf to Kamil Mishara, out Caught by Fakhar Zaman!! In the airrr, not timed and taken at mid-on. Kamil Mishara tried to get a repeat of the straight six he hit last over. Stood leg-side to get under this length delivery and belt down the ground but the ball didn't rise much and caught the bottom of the bat, only to lob to mid-on. In fact Faheem was smart to roll his fingers across the ball. Entertaining stay ends for Kamil Mishara. Kamil Mishara c Fakhar Zaman b Faheem Ashraf 22(12) [4s-2 6s-2]

Faheem Ashraf to Kamil Mishara, FOUR, edged and over short third! Mishara wanted to slog this across the line over mid-wicket. Gets a thick outside edge that easily cleared the infield and escaped to the fence

Salman Mirza to Kamil Mishara, SIX, this is class! In fact he's hit it all the way. Made that slight adjustment to give himself some room to get under this full delivery, hit it very straight towards the sightscreen and just clears the rope. These two hits will settle him down

Salman Mirza to Kamil Mishara, FOUR, dismissed! Proper get out of my sight shot from Mishara. Finally he manages to get hold of a hit against the left-armer. Short of a length delivery on the off stump, Mishara covered the line and smashed it over mid-wicket

Mohammad Wasim to Kamil Mishara, SIX, that's more like the Kamil Mishara we know. Talented young batter. Gets a short of length delivery down leg, classic problem of not being able to adjust to RHB LHB there from the bowler. Would have been a fine outswinging short of length delivery in the corridor to Nissanka but Mishara is left-handed and it ended up being a freebie to be handsomely picked up over backward square leg

Salman Mirza to Nissanka, FOUR, nicely cut away. Not so short but it had width and Nissanka freed his arms to cut it through cover-point. Off the mark in style
