    0.2 Oh wow, terrific delivery from Madushanka. He has hushed the Wankhede. Nice and full, better line from the left-arm seamer. It lands around middle. Rohit plays back in the crease, searching for the inswinger. But this one swerves away past the outside edge and sends the off stump cartwheeling. It was the offcutter with the new ball from Madushanka. Bona fide contender for the ball of the tournament 4/1
    29.6 No hundred for Gill! Another offcutter from Madushanka, this one at 122ks. The one that got Rohit was a quicker one at 136ks. Banged into the pitch and cramps Gill. He looks to ramp it down to deep third but can only guide it behind to Kusal Mendis as Madushanka finds extra bounce to unsettle the batter 193/2
    31.3 Another cutter. Kohli plops it to short cover. Madushanka has stunned the Wankhede. Another Mustafizur-esque cutter outside off, this one at 114ks. Kohli is early into a drive and offers a simple catch to Nissanka. Madushanka has taken out India's top three: Rohit, Gill and Kohli. He's having a sensational World Cup 196/3
    47.3 Madushanka has the last laugh though! This was another wide one, and another slower one. Iyer gets a toe-end on this as he has to reach for it, and he can only slice it straight up in the air for Theekshana to gobble it up at extra cover. That's five for Madushanka! 333/6
    39.2 Chameera gets a wicket for his efforts! This was quick and on a good length, Rahul looks to drive this on the up but seemed to be through the short early and ends up just checking the stroke. It goes straight to Hemantha at short extra cover, who takes a good catch at head height 256/4
    41.3 SKY's stay is short lived! Short ball and Sri Lanka are confident here! This was over SKY's right shoulder as he looks to hook it. It passes very close to the glove as Mendis collects. Umpire is unmoved but Mendis reviews immediately. And there is indeed a slight spike on Ultra Edge. The crowd are hushed 276/5
    49.6 Swings the length ball all the way down towards deep backward square. Jadeja hurries back for the second, but he might be short. Yeah he's about a foot short and India end on 357 for 8! 357/8
    49.3 Shami is run out as they look to steal a bye! This was a slower one outside off, Shami comes down the track and misses it. Mendis throws down the stumps and he's clearly a goner. Jadeja is almost alongside Shami at the end 355/7

    0.1 and he strikes first ball. The Wankhede gets right behind Bumrah. Nissanka chats with Karunaratne and asks for a review of the on-field out decision. Wide of the crease, full, angling in, opening the batter up and bending away late to strike the back pad. The tracker returns umpire's call on clipping off stump. Nissanka bags a golden duck 0/1
    1.1 Siraj, too, strikes with his first ball. Karunaratne challenges the on-field out decision although this looks adjacent. Starts off with a full one that swings back in as opposed to going away with the angle. Catches Karunaratne on the crease, beats the inside edge and thumps the front pad well below the knee-roll. It would've crashed into middle and Karunaratne has to depart 2/2
    3.1 Make that 3 for 4. India's quicks are on fire! Hits the top of off stump. Good length, angling in towards middle, which means Mendis has to play at it. But then it straightens away late to beat the outside edge and ping the top of off stump. Sensational stuff from Siraj and Bumrah. He has broken the bails 3/4
    1.5 The third slip comes into play. Good captaincy from Rohit. SL are 2 for 3 at the Wankhede. Siraj goes wide of the crease, but this largely holds its line wide of off. It possibly finishes on a set of stumps outside off. Sadeera goes searching for it and spars at it. The outside edge flies to third slip, where Iyer hangs onto a chest-high grab. All action at the Wankhede 2/3
    9.3 Shami joins the party. Short and wide of off stump, Asalanka was itching to break free. He slashes in the air and finds Jadeja at backward point 14/5
    13.1 Cleans Mathews up! Shami had threatened this in his previous over and now he delivers! This was a stunning inswinger, a perfect upright seam and this was full and swinging late towards middle and leg. Mathews goes for the drive seeing the length but this is just far too good, as the stumps are disturbed 29/8
    9.4 And Shami has two in two! This was a good length outside off, and Hemantha just has a loose push at it. Thick edge through to Rahul who makes no mistake. Third first ball duck off the innings for Sri Lanka. Shami on a hattrick 14/6
    11.3 short of a length, down leg. India are reviewing this though. Because they think Chameera has gloved it. And indeed he has! Fantastic review from Rahul, as this was the faintest of touches through 22/7

    17.6 Shami has five! Good length outside off, and Rajitha edges this drive. Well taken at second slip. Shami is now the highest wicket taker in World Cups for India! 49/9
    19.4 And it's all over! Sri Lanka are 55 all out! Madushanka goes for a slog sweep and just top edges this straight up in the air as mid-on circles under to complete the catch. India win by 302 runs! 55/10
