Fantastic innings, terrible ball to end there from Chameera. Lanka not as sharp as they would have liked in the field.

Whatever it takes!!!
This is Sharjah though.. 60 off last 5 could still be a decent chance for the chasing side. SL should look to get through PP with 50 for 1 or 2 and then consolidate to reach maybe 100 by 15. The chase could be on if one of their hitters has a day out.

Jos is just incredible though. Excellent innings.

Think it needs to be recognised more often that batting of that quality and destructiveness more or less creates bad bowling as a consequence; bowlers simply aren't sure what to do and are worried about making mistakes, which leads to more mistakes

Going full as a group was absolutely trash from Sri Lanka though, they did it against Deshis as well. Stay on a length

Yea, but that's one of the things that seperates great teams from the rest. They execute well in the face of such pressure. SL lost the plot a bit

Good start from Lanka, as long as you stay with the rate defending here is a nightmare towards the back end.
