Over - 5.4: V Philander to K Sangakkara: OUT!
K Sangakkara: c&b V Philander 0 (1b, 0x6, 0x4) at a S/R of 0
OUT, Caught and Bowled! This ball seems to have kissed the moon before coming down. K Sangakkara tries the short-arm pull, but the ball is too full for that shot. The top edge is vertical and hangs up over the pitch. V Philander is under it to complete a sitter.

B]Over - 5.5:[/B] V Philander to S Ganesh: 1 RUNS
Over - 5.6: V Philander to T Dilshan: OUT!
T Dilshan: run out J Kallis 26 (16b, 0x6, 3x4) at a S/R of 162.50
RUN OUT! The batsman unlucky there. That was a classy drive and it hits the back leg of the bowler in his follow through, which goes on to hit the stumps at the non-strikers end. He is out of the crease.
