Key Stats
44.5 Tendai Chatara to Thisara Perera
SIX! Tendai Chatara to Thisara Perera. Back of a length, off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. Hammered into the crowd, Thisara finishes the match in style. He gets a big hug from his captain, Sri Lanka win by five wickets. A composed partnership between Dinesh Chandimal and Thisara Perera has taken Sri Lanka to victory in Mirpur. Chandimal might only be the stand-in skipper while Angelo Mathews is injured, but it was a true captain's knock from him today. Zimbabwe had their tails up after a triple-strike by Blessing Muzarabani, but the right-handed batsman was mature in steering the men in blue to victory. Zimbabwe's total of 198 was never going to be enough, so credit must go to the Sri Lankan attack. Seven wickets between Thisara Perera (33-4) and Nuwan Pradeep (33-4) was enough to run through the batting order, with only Brendan Taylor (58) putting up any real resistance. Match 5 of the series takes place on Tuesday, with Zimbabwe looking to bounce back when they take on hosts Bangladesh.
