2nd over: Sri Lanka 1-0 (Gunaratne 0, Athapaththu 0) Another maiden! Ash Gardner stitching together five dots and a solitary leg bye sees the scoreboard creak to life.
1st over: Sri Lanka 0-0 (Gunaratne 0, Athapaththu 0) A lesser spotted maiden over to begin with as Schutt keeps Gunaratne honest. Tight line and some movement in the air. Healy comes up to the stumps for the second half of the over too. Sri Lanka can’t afford too many overs like that, especially not in the powerplay.
