The 11th over is shaping up nicely! Natthakan Chantham starts with Ama Kanchana, a tidy delivery, no run. Next ball, Hansima Karunaratne nudges one to deep square leg for a quick single. Back to Ama Kanchana, who slices one to backward square leg, picking up another run. Slowly but surely, the scoreboard is ticking.

Chaturongrattana is mixing things up in the 16th over! First, Hansima Karunaratne pushes one to long-off for a quick single. Then Shayani Senaratne follows suit, finding the same spot for another run. The batters are smartly rotating the strike, keeping the pressure on the fielders!

That’s the end of the innings for Sri Lanka A Women, 133 for 5 off 20 overs. A competitive total on the board, with the batters doing just enough to give the bowlers something to defend.

And Natthakan Chantham makes a statement! Shashini Gimhani pitches one up, and Chantham leans back to send it racing to deep backward point, FOUR runs! The chase is alive and the pressure’s on the bowlers.

Big moment! Sutthiruang goes for one but misses, Sachini Nisansala strikes, and it’s LBW! Sutthiruang departs after a quick 6 off 8, leaving the batters scrambling early in this chase.

And another one bites the dust! Thipatcha Putthawong can’t get going, edging Ama Kanchana straight to Shayani Senaratne. Gone for a duck off just 2 balls, Sri Lanka A’s chase is wobbling now.
