Have Sri Lanka decided to step on the accelerator after drinks?

Seven come off Chris Sole's over.

Richie Berrington might not mind some additional intent - extra aggression would lead to chances...

Sri Lanka 166-4 v Scotland

Ahh, not the best start after drinks.

The first poor delivery Michael Leask has bowled is slapped for six over the leg-side, but he's made of stern stuff is the Scotland all-rounder.

He dusts himself down and goes for just two from the next five balls

Chris Sole is back into the attack for Scotland.

He impressed in his first spell, taking two wickets and bowling close to 90mph, and it's more good stuff from the big quick here, conceding just two runs from the over.

The players are taking a wee break, so I'm going to make a coffee myself!

Charith Asalanka pulls the first ball of Michael Leask's over for four, but it's a good recovery from Leask, going for just two runs from the next five deliveries.

At this run-rate, Sri Lanka are projected to score 244... they would have been targeting far more than that when they started their innings.

Scotland are really squeezing now.

Mark Watt almost sneaks one through the defences of Dhananjaya de Silva, but the Sri Lankan number six just about gets bat on it.

Richie Berrington's side would love another wicket in the next few overs.

Michael Leask continues to rattle through his overs.

Another tight set means he's gone for just six runs in his three overs.

It was that pressure which caused the mistake at the other end.

Dhananjaya de Silva is the new man for Sri Lanka, and he takes two from the final four balls of Watt's over.

Pathum Nissanka and Charith Asalanka are looking to accelerate in this passage, but Michael Leask is giving nothing away, and concedes just three from his second over.

Mark Watt's latest over goes for six, including a hugely fortuitous boundary for Charith Asalanka.

A big attempted sweep off his stumps is bottom edged down to long-leg.

There is indeed a change of bowling. Michael Leask is into the attack in place of Ali Evans, and it's an excellent start from the right-arm tweaker, conceding just the one run.

Mark Watt tries to bowl a leg-break in among his usual offies, but it slips out and is well above waist-high.

Charith Asalanka takes the resulting free hit for four down the ground, and that's an expensive over - 11 off it.

Ali Evans bangs one in and is dismissively belted to the midwicket boundary by Pathum Nissanka, who now has 70 from 71 balls.

That might well be Evans' spell.

Mark Watt continues to whirl away, and we see his trademark 24-yard delivery for the first time today.

There's almost a run-out in that over as well - Charith Asalanka thinks the ball has got past Brandon McMullen at extra cover, and sets off for the assumed single.

McMullen pulls out a stunning full-length dive, but his shy at the stumps is off target - would have been out with a direct hit...

Ali Evans thinks he has another as Pathum Nissanka mistimes a pull shot out towards Chris Greaves on the midwicket fence.

Unfortunately for Scotland, it lands just short.

Tidy stuff from Mark Watt.

The Derbyshire spinner, as he always does, varies his angle of delivery and flight to keep the batters on their toes.

Just the four singles from the over.

Just the one run from the final four balls of the over - a wicket and five runs from Ali Evans' latest over.

20 overs gone, and we're going to see Mark Watt for the first time today.

Sadeera Samarawickrama is walking at the Scottish bowling at the minute, and to good effect.

He punches Chris McBride straight for four, before rotating the strike from the remainder of the over.

However, he needs treatment from the physio at the end of that set. I'm not sure what the problem is, but one to keep an eye on...

A change of ends for Ali Evans, but Sri Lanka continue to tick along nicely.

Pathum Nissanka drives imperiously down the ground for four, and seven runs come from it.

When will Richie Berrington turn to Mark Watt?
