1/12 Starc gets Nissanka for 6. Good over from Starc, gets rewarded and Green takes a very good catch.

SL 351 behind and Gazza is on in the 10th over.

Anti government protesters have stormed the Presidents House and are clashing with police, there's some unrest in Colombo, 90 minutes from where they are playing in Galle. Might be something to watch.
