Live cricket score: UAE 47/6 | Overs 10 | BATTING: Swapnil Patil 14(12), Amjad Javed 0(1): Herath bowls a fuller ball outside off. He also adds a tinge of flight to it inviting the batsman to hit.

Live cricket score: UAE 40/5 | Overs 9 | BATTING: Swapnil Patil 7(9), Saqlain Haider 1(7): Dushmantha Chameera is brought into the attack. He bowls a tight first over giving just one run that too off a wide. Saqlain Haider tried his best to rotate the strike but did not succeed.
