Olly Stone to Pathum Nissanka
A vicious bumper from Stone this! Digs it into the surface, on off, Pathum Nissanka alertly arches back and lets it go through.

Olly Stone to Pathum Nissanka
SIX! Clobbered away! Stone bowls it on a length, around off, Pathum Nissanka waits for this one, allows it to arrive at him, creates a strong base before pulling it behind deep square leg for a cracking six. Sri Lanka are 32 more runs away now.

Olly Stone to Pathum Nissanka
DROPPED! Bashir never looked closely comfortable to take that one! Steep bumper on offer, Pathum Nissanka is a bit late to ramp it up. Gets it off the toe end of the bat and into the overcast skies. The ball hangs for an eternity in the air over deep third. Shoaib Bashir runs to his front and loses the ball in the clouds, but tries to position himself by crouching and eventually shells it. They cross one.

Length on the pads, Mathews looks to flick it but is early into the shot and closes his bat face early. He gets a leading edge in front of mid on.

SIX! 200 up for Sri Lanka and they now need just 17 runs to win! Another predictable short-pitched delivery from Stone, on the stumps, Pathum Nissanka reads the length early, gets in position quickly with a stable base and still head position, clobbers the pull shot into the air and deposits it rows behind deep backward square leg.

FOUR! Connects well this time! Shoaib Bashir gives this one some more air, full and on middle, Angelo Mathews goes down on one knee and nails his sweep towards the vacant deep square leg fence for a boundary. That brings up the 100-run partnership between these two batters as well. Sri Lanka are almost there!

FOUR! Pathum Nissanka fittingly hits the winning runs! SRI LANKA WIN BY 8 WICKETS! Shoaib Bashir drags his length back, outside off, Pathum Nissanka lets it come to him and cuts it away nicely wide of backward point for a boundary. Angelo Mathews hugs Nissanka as they get appreciation from the crowd and the English players. We can also see the Lankan skipper, Dhananjaya de Silva shaking hands with the head coach of England, Brendon McCullum. A famous victory and this will surely go down as one of the finest moments in Sri Lanka's history.
