6.6
Pandya to Mathews, 1 run, awkwardly dabbed down to third man after a shimmy down the track. Mathews not looking particularly graceful so far
6.5
Pandya to Mathews, no run, another full delivery on off, squirted away towards Jadeja at point. Clearly no run there either
6.4
Pandya to Mathews, no run, back of a length on off, calmly defended
6.3
Pandya to Mathews, no run, where was Kapugedara going? back of a length on off, Mathews defends it towards the bowler, and calls for a run before saying no. Kapu is halfway down and has to return but the throw misses the stumps by Pandya.
6.2
Pandya to Mathews, no run, full outside off, overpitched. Drilled to cover

Mathews. Pandya has now taken three consecutive wickets off three balls. Not a hat-trick though

6.1
Pandya to Dilshan, OUT, taken. The big wicket of Dilshan. Pandya strikes with his first ball. A well-directed bouncer on middle and Dilshan pulls, but fails to keep it down. Goes straight down Ashwin's throat at fine leg.

TM Dilshan c Ashwin b Pandya 18 (16b 2x4 0x6) SR: 112.50

Talha Hameed: "Tillakaratne Dilshan is now the 2nd highest run scorer in T20Is going past Martin Guptill[1666 runs], Brendon McCullum is on top with 2140 runs. "
