[dropped-catch]Over 47 - SL 205/4 (Thirimanne 58, Mathews 27)
Anderson back on for his final over. Thirimanne helps the first delivery for four to midwicket, it was too short and asking to be hit.

Tough chance, high to his right. Anderson finishes with 1-33. Sri Lanka need 15 off 18 balls.6/3/2014 8:54:51 PM -
