Chameera 以 M Wazir
Dot ball. Dushmantha Chameera to Muhammad Waseem Jnr. Reverse Swing-In yorker, outside off stump on the back foot Slog, to long on for no runs. That's it! A thriller comes to an end as Sri Lanka win by six runs to ensure they will qualify for Saturday's Final, where they will meet Pakistan once more. Despite a strong start from Pakistan, Saim Ayub's quick-fire 27, was followed by Salam Ali Agha's 63 that anchored the innings. But the Sri Lanka bowlers hit back, Dushmantha Chameera leading the way with four wickets, whilst Eshan Malinga was expensive but picked up two key wickets, as despite Agha remaining unbeaten, his side couldn't get over the line. Dushmantha Chameera is the Player of the Match.
