4.5
S Senanayake to D Warner, OUT! CASTLED! Warner goes for it again but Sananayake has the last laugh. Flighted and slower outisde off, Warner gets down on one knee for a pre-meditated slog sweep. It spins into him and he misses his sweep. The ball passes the inside edge of the bat and crashes into the stumps.
Usman Khawajac Thisara Perera b Sachith Pathirana 36 22 2 2 163.64
13.2
S Pathirana to U Khawaja, OUT! Gone this time. A bit of more flight this time, outside off, very full in length, Khawaja comes down the track and lofts it down the ground. Is not quite able to clear the man at long off and Thisara Perera takes it with ease. Did not realize this, but that ends the 97-run stand. Useful knock from Khawaja as well.
Travis Headc Dhananjaya de Silva b Thisara Perera 45 18 4 3 250
19.6
T Perera to T Head, OUT! TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE! A low full toss angled in, Travis leaps out of the crease and looks to slog it but isn't able to get completely behind it. It flies to Dhananjay de Silva who pouches it with both hands. That's the last ball and AUSTRALIA END THEIR INNINGS ON 263/3!

Sri Lanka

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Kusal Perera (W)c Mitchell Starc b Scott Boland 4 6 1 0 66.67
1.4
S Boland to K Perera, OUT! Another boundary and a wicket! This was coming. Kusal gave very early intentions of coming down the track and Boland fired it full and wide outside off. The southpaw slashed hard but only managed a thick outside edge which went straight down the throat of Mitchell Starc at third man.
Tillakaratne Dilshanb Mitchell Starc 4 3 1 0 133.33
0.5
M Starc to T Dilshan, OUT! Starc strikes in the first over again. Fullish ball on middle and off, Dilshan comes down the track, swinging wildly and the ball shapes back in. It takes a slight inside edge and crashes into the woodwork. That is a big wicket and the crowd knows it, falling silent.
Dhananjaya de Silvab James Faulkner 12 8 1 0 150
4.2
J Faulkner to de Silva, OUT! WHAT HAS HE DONE?! De Silva tried to be too clever there. Length ball around off, de Silva leaves his stumps wide open and looks to scoop it. He chose the wrong shot for the delivery and the ball bounces over his bat and knocks into the leg stump. Sri Lanka were looking good out there until that shot.
Dinesh Chandimal (C)c Moises Henriques b Scott Boland 58 43 6 1 134.88
15.2
S Boland to D Chandimal, OUT! Superb catch from Henriques! A short ball outside off, Chandimal goes for the pull but is undone by the slower bouncer. He mistimes it and the ball goes off the top edge. It does not quite carry to the man in the deep but Moises Henriques comes running in and takes a good catch. Second wicket for Boland.
Kusal Mendisc Glenn Maxwell b Moises Henriques 22 13 2 2 169.23
7.5
M Henriques to K Mendis, OUT! Caught. The fun ends. Henriques gets a wicket to his name as well. A short ball outside off, Mendis pulls this with all his might but unfortunately for him, it is not enough to clear the boundary. Glenn Maxwell at the ropes is stationed well in. Watches the ball like a hawk and takes it easily, as if taking a practice catch.
Thisara Pererac Scott Boland b Adam Zampa 7 7 1 0 100
10.3
A Zampa to T Perera, OUT! Taken. Half the side is back in the hut. The wrong 'un, around off, Perera comes down the track and looks to slog it out of the park but the ball spins away and takes the outside edge. Simple catch to Scott Boland at short third man.
Chamara Kapugederac George Bailey b Mitchell Starc 43 25 3 3 172
18.1
M Starc to C Kapugedera, OUT! Caught. Number 8 is down. A length ball outside off, Kapugedera backs away and slashes hard but is cramped for room. Gets a top edge which is taken calmly by George Bailey at point.
Sachith Pathiranac Travis Head b Scott Boland 2 2 0 0 100
15.6
S Boland to S Pathirana, OUT! Another good catch. A low full toss outside off, Pathirana reaches out and looks to go over cover but the ball hits the toe end of the bat and goes towards cover where Travis Head takes it nicely with a dive to his right. 5 runs and a wicket from the over, Boland has figures of 3-0-25-3.
Sachithra Senanayakenot out 6 6 1 0 100
Suranga Lakmalc & b Mitchell Starc 1 2 0 0 50
18.6
M Starc to S Lakmal, OUT! That is a stunning catch. Totally unnecessary, unless Starc is playing for Fantasy points which will give extra if a caught and bowled is taken. A length ball outside off, Lakmal swings hard but gets a top edge. It is simple catch for the man running in from point but Starc decides to go after it and then slides awkwardly near that fielder to take the catch. Finishes with figures of 4-0-26-3.
