72.3	Dilshan to Dravid, 1 run, turned to the on side for a single

Just below knee high. Insert here
72.1	Dilshan to Dravid, 1 run, goes right back into the crease to clip it to deep midwicket. 50 up for Dravid and the crowd cheer. Sehwag walks across to shake his hands
Dilshan to bowl

71.4	Muralitharan to Sehwag, no run, flighted outside leg stump, swept to short fine-leg
71.3	Muralitharan to Sehwag, FOUR, edges it to third man boundary! He moved down the track and went for the big lofted shot to long-on but it flew through the vacant slip cordon
71.2	Muralitharan to Sehwag, no run, from round the stumps, turns to leg and middle line, tapped to the on side
71.1	Muralitharan to Dravid, 1 run, goes well back to clip it to deep backward square-leg

70.6	Mathews to Sehwag, FOUR, aha! slower one outside off stump, Sehwag checked his shot, hung his bat out and it runs away to third man boundary
70.5	Mathews to Sehwag, no run, on the middle and leg, turned to midwicket
70.4	Mathews to Sehwag, no run, short and wide... Sehwag chases it and mistimes the cut to point
70.3	Mathews to Dravid, 1 run, banged in short, pulled away to deep midwicket
70.2	Mathews to Dravid, no run, good straight drive but too straight .. it crashes into the stumps at the other end ..

• Played at Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai
• 2,3,4,5,6 December 2009 (5-day match)

	Sri Lanka 1st innings		R	B	4s	6s	SR
	NT Paranavitana	c Dravid b Harbhajan Singh	53	81	7	0	65.43
	19.5 Harbhajan has struck. He has been bowling really well and has got the breakthrough. Paranavitana, who was looking so good, is gone. It was a loopy flighted delivery around the off stump and Paranavitana edged his attempted cover drive to first slip. Done by the dip. 93/1
	TM Dilshan	c Vijay b Harbhajan Singh	109	160	10	2	68.12
	64.6 Dilshan is not too happy. Given out caught at short-leg. Oh dear oh dear .. what a poor decision by Llong. It turned in and Dilshan stretched forward to defend. The ball was long away from the gloves or the bat and bounded straight off the pad. Oh what a crucial moment this. He played so well so far. But he has to go now. 262/5
	KC Sangakkara*	c †Dhoni b Ojha	18	35	2	0	51.42
	30.5 And he has been strangled down the leg side. What a way to go. This one was turning down leg side, going past his hips when Sanga tried to glance but got a faint tickle through to a delighted Dhoni, who takes a neat catch 128/2
	DPMD Jayawardene	c Sehwag b Sreesanth	29	63	4	0	46.03
	47.4 Done in by the bouncer. Yuvraj hugs Sreesanth. It was the short-pitched delivery, Mahela swivels to pull but top edges it straight to deep backward square-leg. Just reward for a fine spell. 187/3
	TT Samaraweera	c Vijay b Harbhajan Singh	1	2	0	0	50.00
	48.1 Samaraweera walks after edging. Almost Ponting like dismissal, if you know what I mean. It was flighted outside off on a length, Samaraweera lunged forward to defend and got a bat and pad to short leg. Double strike and India are back in the game. Much depends on Dilshan who has played a fab knock so far. He has to carry on for a really big innings 188/4
	AD Mathews	not out	86	119	13	0	72.26
	HAPW Jayawardene†	c Harbhajan Singh b Ojha	43	47	6	1	91.48
	79.6 moves down the track but is beaten in flight and hits it straight to mid-on. Ojha shouts out few words at the departing batsman. 329/6
	KMDN Kulasekara	c †Dhoni b Khan	12	15	3	0	80.00
	84.6 Finally Zaheer lands one on target and gets a wicket. It was full in length, moving away from Kulasekara who gets a thin edge through to Dhoni 359/7
	HMRKB Herath	c Dravid b Harbhajan Singh	1	12	0	0	8.33
	87.2 one more down as the shadows lengthen. It was around the off stump line, Rangana goes for the sweep and it goes off the toe end of the bat to first slip where Dravid takes a good tumbling catch 362/8
	M Muralitharan	not out	0	4	0	0	0.00
	Extras	(b 4, lb 4, w 2, nb 4)	14
	Total	(8 wickets; 89 overs)	366	(4.11 runs per over)
