16.1 Chanaka Welegedara to Shahid Yousuf, The batsman lines up for a big slog over cow corner, but gets an inside edge, which scoots past the stumps and the keeper for four runs! The bowler has a wry smile, if the batsman keeps that up, it won't be too long till he's back in the pavilion... (4)

-Sialkot Stallions were very well restricted by the Wayamba Elevens' bowlers. They could only manage a 157-run total, even with Shahid Yousuf and Kamran Younis' fifties, which is, very mediocre.
The failures of Imran Nazir and Shoaib Malik greatly effected the Sialkot Stallions. They could've achieved a far bigger total, had either of them got going, even for a little while.
