The final delivery takes a leading edge of Mendis' bat and is caught, but it was a freehit. The freehit is also smashed in the same region but the timing was missing, hence it only results in a double. Excellent piece of fielding by Rahul Tripathi as Mendis whacks it straight over the bowler, which looked like a sure boundary. Spin introduced from both ends and it puts a brake on the brisk scoring.
