    2.6 Got another one! It's mayhem out there. He bangs it in fuller, outside off and tailing back in. First slip take it comfortably. The umpires check the front foot but it's behind the line 3/2
    2.3 Got 'im this time! This was as predictable a wicket as they come: yorker almost crushing his toes right in front of the stumps. Batter falls over trying to flick it away, and that was plumb 2/1
    3.2 Byrom gets into the act! Slightly fuller, less movement from outside off. The batter jumps at it but gets it right off the toe end of his bat. Slip snares up this catch once again 3/3
    5.4 Woah woah, there goes another one! Pitches full, right outside off, and tails away from the right-hander just slightly. He drives at it but it kisses his outside edge and the ball gets deposited into the hands of the slip cordon once again 13/4
    7.3 Gone this time around. Just pulls his length back, and this time the ball has enough carry on it to get to second slip without him needing him to move from his position. He was fending at it with no feet moving once again. Looked good with a couple of shots, but was found out against pace 25/5
    14.2 What a great catch! Top drawer. The left-hander swivels at this ball rising right into his helmet from a short length. Gets an edge that looks like it will be going over Young's hands. But he times his jump to perfection and completes a ripper 47/8
    9.1 Byrom gets a fourth! Short of a length, outside off, and it tails into the batter as he reaches away from the body to cut it away. It's all like a procession right now 30/6
    11.5 Not so lucky now! Absolute fire, this. Test match bowling. Full length, pitches and fizzes into the off stump. The batter can only bring his bat down, too late and misreading the line of the ball. And then, look back at the mess made of his stumps. The bails have flown off and now he must return to the dugout 39/7
    15.5 Scorching bouncer on the stumps, Rasith had nowhere to go as he tried to move away from the line of the ball awkwardly, gloved the ball, and a regulation catch for the Aussie skipper at first slip. 51/9

    18.5 that's the end of Sri Lanka's innings! A brilliant fifer for Byrom. Fuller length ball on the off stump line, plays off the front foot and splices the cover drive to the backward point fielder at the edge of the circle. 58/10
