FOUR! That will be more than enough! Sri Lanka beat Pakistan by 8 wickets in this last match of the T20I series.
Mirza produces a beauty out of nowhere. Angled in from over the wicket before straightening off the deck. Mendis attempts the flick by closing the bat face but is undone by the seam movement and is beaten past the outside edge.
Scores are level! Short and wide on off. Mendis frees his arms and cracks the cut to deep point, where the fielder tidies up and keeps the batters down to a single.
SIX! Clean strike. Kusal Mendis is showing his full range. Mirza pushes the length up, on off and middle. Mendis backs away and with a clean swing of the arms, he slams it over long off for a biggie. With that, Kusal becomes the leading run-getter for Sri Lanka in T20Is, overtaking Pathum Nissanka, according to the on-air commentators.
FOUR! Clever, very clever! Banged in short, over middle. Mendis backs away and hops. He gets his hands high to play the upper cut over the keeper's head for another four. 8 more needed for Sri Lanka.
Very full, on off. Kusal tries to repeat the dose of reverse scoop but toe-ends it back to the bowler.
FOUR! Innovative and mighty effective. Angled in towards the off stump, on a length. Mendis pre-empts the reverse scoop and backs away to give himself room. He hangs low to get under the ball and gets it over short third for a boundary.
Pushes the length up, on off. Kamindu knocks it to extra cover.
Bowls the leg-cutter, not all that short, angled into the right-hander. Mendis crouches and shovels it to the left of deep square leg for one.
Low full toss, on middle and leg. Kamindu clips it to deep mid-wicket for one.
