    SIX! Shah Faisal to Kamindu Mendis. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep square leg for 6 runs. Sri Lanka have posted a commanding total! Thanks to brilliant batting from Pavan Rathnayake and Kusal Mendis, the innings had a solid foundation. The highlight, however, was Dasun Shanaka's explosive knock, where he smashed his way to the fastest fifty ever by a Sri Lankan in T20 Internationals, a truly scintillating display of power hitting. On the other side, Oman's bowlers struggled throughout, leaking runs in every phase of the innings, and they now face a massive task ahead with bat in hand. Join us shortly for the chase!
