There's nothing here for Anderson at all; it's a fast bowler's graveyard at Galle. He'll be dining out on this performance for a while.
Perera goes for a big swipe and nails the ball sending it to the boundary for four. It's a different game when the spinners are bowling.

He couldn't get an eight-for, could he?
Anderson 28-13-6-39
No joy for Anderson despite an unwise swish from Embuldeniya. There was a hint of swing there too.
Not bad for a lad who can only do it on green seamers.
Anderson hits Embuldeniya in the upper thigh. Short leg is coming in...

James Anderson is the oldest seam bowler to take a five-wicket haul in Asia, beating the record of a 37-year-old Sir Richard Hadlee, and he is only the seventh paceman to take a six-wicket haul in Sri Lanka.
Perera takes a single so now Anderson has three balls at Embuldeniya.

Tom Sweeney: Jimmy Anderson is a cheat code... this is outrageous...!
D Perera 33, Embuldeniya 0
Anderson's best figures are 7-42, by the way. He currently has 6-38. It's on. Anderson has also become the oldest fast bowler to get a five-fer in Asia.
Embuldeniya is the new batsman. He averages five but Perera keeps the strike.

Alex Thomas: What a bowler Jimmy is... not just on a cloudy day in Manchester either!
Meanwhile, Dilruwan Perera has played a quite incredible shot to hit Jack Leach for six.

It is not out of the realms of possibility that Jimmy Anderson could end up with his best Test match figures - in Galle.
6-38 in 27 overs. In Galle. On this pitch.

Suddenly, England are running through Sri Lanka. Jimmy Anderson is just the most extraordinary cricketer.
Lakmal c Crawley b Anderson 0 (SL 332-8)
Make that six.
I have run out of words to describe this man. James Anderson. Sensational.
He gets Suranga Lakmal second ball with the tailender edging to Zak Crawley in the gully.

This is one of James Anderson's best five-fors.

Dickwella will be kicking himself. He could have played out Anderson and he was milking Leach at the other end.
That's Anderson's 30th five-wicket haul in Tests.
He has 5-38 in 26.5 overs.
Sir Alastair Cook
Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special
All day, England have been toying with that plan, hanging the ball out there to encourage that shot. It's paid off. It's a good catch, too, with the ball going to Jack Leach's wrong hand.
Daniel Norcross
BBC Test Match Special
That is the first injudicious shot Dickwella has played.
