 Harris to Chandimal, OUT, Ryano has done the damage, Chandimal pays the price for playing strange  strokes under pressure. He walks across the stumps to a straight ball  and tries to dink it square. Harris kept it straight and full and rapped  him dead in front of the stumps. End of a good innings, but Chandimal  needs to learn how to finish the job.
