16.6

OUT! lbw b Fatima Sana.

16.5

FOUR! Lovely shot.

16.4

Stumping chance missed! Pace off ball, angled into the pads. Dilhari hops inside the line for the tickle but misses and her back leg gets dragged out of the crease.

16.3

1 run, that is flicked away through mid wicket for a single.

16.2

FOUR! Fatima Sana is not happy with the effort there. Skidding through, on a short of a length, outside off. Nilakshika Silva waits back and uses the pace as she steers it to the right of the short third fielder. Shawaal Zulfiqar is late to get the dive in and the ball goes under her body before going into the fence.

Fatima Sana doesn't take long to break the partnership. But is it too late? With 31 needed from 23 balls and five wickets still in hand, you certainly cannot call it yet. Pakistan have another opening, and Sri Lanka will know there is still plenty of work to do before they can start thinking about the final. Nilakshika Silva walks in next.

16.1

OUT! CAUGHT! Who else but Fatima Sana to provide a timely breakthrough? Pakistan needed that. Bowled on a good length from around the wicket, outside off. Samarawickrama walks across the stumps and tries to use the pace and scoop it over short fine leg. Ends up spooning it towards short fine leg, where Shawaal Zulfiqar reacts well as she moves forward and dives to take the catch inches off the turf. End of a 67-run stand. Sri Lanka Women are 100/5, needing 31 runs off 23 balls.

Here she comes. Fatima Sana is back on. 2/13 off her 2 overs.

15.6

1 run, that is flicked away through mid-wicket for a single. With this, the 100 comes up for Sri Lanka.

15.5

A loud shout for LBW, but turned down! There seemed to be a deflection onto the pads. Tossed up, on a good length, on off and middle. Harshitha hangs low and reaches out in front for the reverse, but is early into the shot and gets hit on the forearm before the ball deflects onto the pads. Well, well, that was pretty adjacent, and Samarawickrama has gotten away with one here.
