15.6
Chameera to Yuvraj Singh, no run, short, angling away from off stump. Yuvraj doesn't connect with the pull
15.5
Chameera to Yuvraj Singh, FOUR, shortish on middle and leg, that didn't climb as much as Yuvraj expected. He drags his pull down off the inside half of his bat, gets it into the gap to the left of long leg
15.4
Chameera to Kohli, 1 run, back of a length outside off, punched towards sweeper cover
15.3
Chameera to Yuvraj Singh, 1 run, back of a length on middle stump, whipped away to deep square leg
15.2
Chameera to Kohli, 1 run, back of a length outside off, dabbed to third man
15.1
Chameera to Kohli, no run, slower ball outside off, gets on the front foot and pushes gently towards point
 

Gagan: "Question: the two sixes that Yuvraj hit aside, how comfortable does he look out there? Seemed like he was playing to survive against Pakistan. Does he look more assured out there today?" -- It's been a mix - the pitch seems slightly two-paced right now, and that's troubling him, and he seems to be finding Chameera's pace harder to handle than the rest of the attack. But his ball-striking is still some sight.
