16th over: Sri Lanka 56-3 (Karunaratne 33, Mathews 12) Sri Lanka decide to get the blood flowing a little and attack Leach. Three singles and a lofted four from Mathews who tips him over mid-on.
15th over: Sri Lanka 49-3 (Karunaratne 31, Mathews 7) Karnaratne swings at Moeen and flicks him off his hip for four. Then, ah! A drop! from Ben Stokes! Mathews pushes and the ball goes very hard, very quick, to his right hand at slip and he can’t quite get close his paw around the ball.
