Thomas to Udana, OUT, holes to long-off! He needed to hit out or get out, but this has been a brilliant penultimate over. They crossed over, crucially, which means Thirimanne won't be on strike.

Thomas to Thirimanne, 1 run, brilliant yorker. He's done well to get it away for one. Death bowling has been hit and miss for Windies, but when they've got it right, it's been excellent
Bipeen Dhakal: "An Old SL fan - I hope, in fact, I pray to God that this kid Fernando's career doesn't go like that of "James Rodrigeuz". He has a great role to play and rebuild SL's cricket around him. Good Luck !!!"
