SR Tendulkar | b Malinga | 35 | 70 | 52 | 2 | 0 | 67.30 |
| 14.3 gone this time, Tendulkar goes to cover drive one outside off but drags it back firmly onto his stumps which crunch hard. Malinga immediately celebrates, putting out both arms and roaring 68/1 |

Yuvraj Singh | c Jayawardene b Muralitharan | 2 | 14 | 11 | 0 | 0 | 18.18 |
| 20.3 Murali gets the breakthrough! Flighted up beautifully, Yuvraj tempted to flash hard outside off but only connects through the edge which comes hard to Jayawardene at first slip who makes no mistake 83/3 |

RG Sharma | c †Sangakkara b Muralitharan | 0 | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |
| 20.5 another excellent delivery from Murali, tempting the batsman forward and he plays down the wrong line as the ball bounces away from him, taking an edge. Sangakkara pouches and is almost celebrating before the decision comes. No third umpire is called for and he's on his way, but could be in trouble later as he stood there for a while, unhappy with the call 83/4 |
