Lasith Embuldeniya to Zak Crawley, OUT! TAKEN! Embuldeniya again. Believe it or not. Zak Crawley though played it away from his body. Lasith loops it nicely, around off, Zak prods forward and looks to block it. The ball though pitches, bounces extra, takes his gloves, the top part of it. Lobs in the air towards first slip. Oshada, at second slip though, has other plans. He puts in a scintillating dive to his left and takes an excellent catch.
