Rubel Hossain to Isuru Udana. Half volley, outside off stump backing away driving, to mid off for 1 run, fielded by Sarkar.
Brilliant fightback from the two Perera's after Sri Lanka were in deep trouble at 41-5. A couple of fifties and a 97 run partnership has brought Sri Lanka right back into this and they take the momentum going into the next innings. Bangladesh will be hugely disappointed with their bowling efforts in the middle and end but they will still have hopes of chasing down 159.

Crazy scenes in Colombo, Mahmudullah clips the ball off his pads and wins the game with a six. Bangladesh progress to the final after one of the wildest finishes you will ever see. Tempers are flared in the middle and it is spoiling what was a very good hard-fought game. Both of the Perera's tried all they could for Sri Lanka but they couldn't quite get their team over the line. Brilliant stuff from Mahmudullah though and he performed heroics at the end after a mini collapse by Bangladesh.
Bangladesh will need to catch their breath and play much better if they are to beat India on Sunday.
