Sakariya bowling in his second spell dismissed the set Bhanuka Rajapaksa with the short ball plan. He could have him one ball earlier if not for a dropped catch by Nitish Rana that trickled into the boundary. However, he didn't take too long for his second wicket as he dismissed Dhananjaya de Silva for just 2 in his next over. Opening batsman Avishka Fernando brought up his half-century after playing two good knocks in the first two games but couldn't continue for long. However, he made it count in the final game and stitched a 109-run stand with Rajapaksa for the second wicket.
