Niroshan Dickwella (W)st Alex Carey b Glenn Maxwell 1 3 0 0 33.33
1.2
Glenn Maxwell to Niroshan Dickwella, OUT! STUMPED! Niroshan Dickwella yorks himself in the end and Alex Carey manages to hold on to the ball and clip the bails before Niroshan Dickwella could make a move back. Early success for Australia here. Coming to the delivery, it is looped up, around middle and leg. Niroshan Dickwella uses his feet but misjudges the delivery, as it sneaks past his blade and through his legs. Alex Carey fumbles a bit as there is some extra bounce but recovers well to dislodge the bails in time. There is a slight delay, as the umpires check for a caught behind but there is no spike on the UltraEdge. Also, there was a thought from the on-air commentator that maybe Alex Carey had collected the ball ahead of the stumps. That also comes to be false in the replays. Slight delay as they followed the protocol but we are ready to get underway again.
Pathum Nissankac Alex Carey b Mitchell Marsh 13 25 2 0 52
9.5
Mitchell Marsh to Pathum Nissanka, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Alex Carey makes no mistake behind the stumps. Mitchell Marsh also strikes in his very first over. It is a cross-seam delivery, in the channel around middle and off at 129 kph. Pathum Nissanka stays back and tries to defend it out but only manages to get a thick outside edge. Alex Carey takes a simple catch to his right and Mitchell Marsh is pumped up.
Kusal Mendisb Pat Cummins 14 21 1 1 66.67
6.3
Pat Cummins to Kusal Mendis, OUT! CHOPPED ON! Pat Cummins strikes in his very first over. The crowd goes silent as Sri Lanka lose their second wicket. It is a good-length delivery, outside off at 133 kph. Mendis tries to cut it but goes nowhere with his footwork. He has to reach out for it and ends up getting an inside edge onto the stumps. Australia are in the driving seat at the moment.
Dhananjaya de Silvac Glenn Maxwell b Mitchell Marsh 60 61 7 0 98.36
26.2
Mitchell Marsh to Dhananjaya de Silva, OUT! CAUGHT! Glenn Maxwell takes a one-handed blinder above his head to break this century partnership. Certainly, something special was needed to break this stand and Glenn Maxwell comes up with an inspirational piece of fielding. It is touch short, on off and holds up a bit off the surface. Dhananjaya de Silva looks to pull it away but does not middle it. Glenn Maxwell at mid-wicket leaps and takes a brilliant catch by lifting his right hand. Australia have created an opening now!
Charith Asalankac Aaron Finch b Pat Cummins 110 106 10 1 103.77
47.4
Pat Cummins to Charith Asalanka, OUT! CAUGHT! Cummins switches to 'round the wicket and delivers it short and wide outside off at 130 kph, Charith Asalanka fetches it from there and tries to dismiss it over long on. He doesn't get much power from his tired shoulders and Aaron Finch takes a simple catch near the fence. End of an excellent knock but this can cost Sri Lanka 10-15 runs.
Dasun Shanaka (C)run out (Mitchell Marsh / Alex Carey) 4 8 0 0 50
29.4
Josh Hazlewood to Charith Asalanka, OUT! RUN OUT! A big miscommunication and Dasun Shanaka goes back for a timid score. It is on a length and outside off, Asalanka taps it down through backward point and gets across for a single. He calls for the second run but Mitchell Marsh is quick to get to the ball. Dasun Shanaka trusts the call and responds, but Charith Asalanka stops abruptly. Dasun Shanaka has reached the point of no return. Alex Carey removes the bails and Sri Lanka have now lost half their side.
Dunith Wellalagec David Warner b Matthew Kuhnemann 19 35 0 0 54.29
40.2
Matthew Kuhnemann to Dunith Wellalage, OUT! Dunith Wellalage holes out but he has done his job. Loopy and full, outside off and spinning in a bit, Dunith Wellalage walks forward and tries to tonk it over long off but gets more height than distance behind his shot. David Warner is underneath it and the rest, as they say, is history.
Chamika Karunaratnelbw b Matthew Kuhnemann 7 9 0 0 77.78
42.5
Matthew Kuhnemann to Chamika Karunaratne, OUT! LBW! Tossed up, on a fuller length around middle and leg, Chamika goes down and across to sweep but fails to middle his shot properly. It deflects off the pads down to fine leg and they cross. The bowler shout for an lbw but the umpire shakes his head. Alex Carey supports the bowler in his thought and Aaron Finch takes the DRS. The UltraEdge detects no bat and the Ball Tracking shows that it's hitting the stumps. The onfield decision is changed. A good review by Australia.
Wanindu Hasaranganot out 21 20 3 0 105
Jeffrey Vandersayrun out (Pat Cummins / Alex Carey) 0 2 0 0 0
48.1
Josh Hazlewood to Wanindu Hasaranga, OUT! RUN OUT! Short in length and wide outside off, Hasaranga lofts it down to third man and it falls wide of the fielder. He takes a single, turns back for the second run and his partner responds. But Wanindu Hasaranga stops as he sees Pat Cummins picking the ball but Jeffrey Vandersay is midway down the track. The throw comes to the keeper and Alex Carey does the rest.
Maheesh Theekshanarun out (sub Mitchell Swepson) 0 5 0 0 0
48.6
Josh Hazlewood to Maheesh Theekshana, OUT! What was Maheesh trying to do? It's a brain fade for the number 11, not reading the game situation. In fact, Wanindu was on his crouches before this ball, that signal was enough to suggest that he won't be taking any run. Anyway, coming to the delivery, it's on a length and outside off, Maheesh Theekshana slices his drive to the right of backward point and comes down the track in search of a run, and is also ball-watching. Wanindu stands there in disgust and gestures for him to run back. Maheesh Theekshana does that and puts in a dive also but before that Mitchell Swepson (sub) has scored a direct hit at the striker's end to find Maheesh short of the crease. The third umpire finds the same. Sri Lanka are all out for 258 runs and have wasted six precious balls.

David Warnerst Niroshan Dickwella b Dhananjaya de Silva 99 112 12 0 88.39
37.1
Dhananjaya de Silva to David Warner, OUT! STUMPED! Warner is gone on 99 and Sri Lanka are right on top! They have made a resounding comeback in this match. Dhananjaya flights this one around off, turning away, Warner gets forward with a big stretch and tries to drive but is beaten by the away turn. Dickwella is swift in taking the bails off and starts to celebrate. The square leg umpire refers upstairs. Nothing on the UltraEdge and the side-on angle confirms that Warner is outside the crease. Warner has already walked. Body blow to Australia. 67 needed off 77 balls with three wickets left.
Aaron Finch (C)lbw b Chamika Karunaratne 0 4 0 0 0
2.4
Chamika Karunaratne to Aaron Finch, OUT! Trapped lbw! Fuller in length, around off and shaping in at 130 kph, Finch is caught on the back foot, trying to defend but misses. He is pinged on the front pad, the bowler appeals vociferously along with this capacity crowd and the finger goes up. Finch is a dead duck, he knows that and returns without taking the referral. Early setback for the Aussies. 256 runs needed in 284 balls
Mitchell Marshc Dhananjaya de Silva b Dunith Wellalage 26 27 3 1 96.3
11.4
Dunith Wellalage to Mitchell Marsh, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Dunith Wellalage has the last laugh here. Well, the young man doesn't know what pressure feels like. It is floated and full, around off. It turns away after hitting the deck. Mitchell Marsh tries to defend it out but only gets a thick outside edge. Niroshan Dickwella tries catching it but it goes past his gloves in a hurry but Dhananjaya de Silva at first slip moves to his left and takes a sharp catch. 
Marnus Labuschagnelbw b Jeffrey Vandersay 14 21 0 0 66.67
19.3
Jeffrey Vandersay to Marnus Labuschagne, OUT! LBW! Jeffrey Vandersay appeals and up goes the finger. Marnus Labuschagne thinks he has been hit high on his pads and takes the review after having a word with his partner. It is tossed up, around middle and turns away just a touch. Marnus Labuschagne is caught inside his crease, he misses his flick and the ball brushes his pads. The umpire raises the finger but Marnus Labuschagne thinks otherwise. There is no bat involved. The Ball Tracking shows three reds and Marnus Labuschagne trudges back to the pavilion. A much-needed breakthrough for Sri Lanka. Jeffrey Vandersay picks up his first wicket.
Alex Carey (W)c Jeffrey Vandersay b Wanindu Hasaranga 19 20 2 0 95
25.4
Wanindu Hasaranga to Alex Carey, OUT! Carey holes out! Flighted delivery, full and around middle, Carey tries to heave it across the line but the ball spins back in a bit and flies off the inner half of his bat. Jeffrey Vandersay takes the catch safely at deep mid-wicket. Another blow to Australia. 128 needed off 146 balls, and with every falling wicket and passing ball, David Warner's presence is becoming more and more important for the touring team. 
Travis Headb Dhananjaya de Silva 27 33 3 0 81.82
35.5
Dhananjaya de Silva to Travis Head, OUT! SOUND OF TIMBER! And that brings the crowd back to life. Dhananjaya de Silva benefits from his natural variation. This one lands on a fuller length around off and skids on with the angle. Travis Head gets forward to play at it but leaves a big gap between his bat and pad. It sneaks through and disturbs the stumps. The 58-run stand is broken and Australia need 70 off 85 balls.
Glenn Maxwelllbw b Maheesh Theekshana 1 3 0 0 33.33
36.2
Maheesh Theekshana to Glenn Maxwell, OUT! MAXWELL IS GONE, LBW! The crowd has gone bonkers. This match is taking a big twist now. A flighted delivery, landing full around off and turning back in with some extra bounce. Maxwell attempts to flick but misses. He gets hit above the knee on the front leg and they appeal. The finger stays down and Maheesh Theekshana is very confident. Dasun Shanaka obliges and goes for the referral. The UltraEdge detects nothing and the Ball Tracking shows that it's hitting the stumps. Brilliant from the bowler as the keeper showed very little interest in that review. 69 needed off 82 balls. Game on!
Cameron Greenb Jeffrey Vandersay 13 25 0 0 52
45.3
Jeffrey Vandersay to Cameron Green, OUT! DRAGS IT ON! Just when Australia started to steady the ship, they lose a wicket. Flatter and quicker through the air, around off, Green stays back to defend but it takes the bottom half of his bat, drops in front of the stumps and hurries behind to dislodge the bails. Niroshan Dickwella jumps in celebration. The crowd is on its feet. 36 needed off 27 balls.
Pat Cumminslbw b Chamika Karunaratne 35 43 2 0 81.4
48.5
Chamika Karunaratne to Pat Cummins, OUT! Given lbw! Chamika Karunaratne hurls across a dipping yorker around leg, Cummins tries to heave but misses and is rapped on the back pad. They appeal and the umpire raises his finger. Pat Cummins takes the DRS but is not looking too confident. The UltraEdge finds no bat. The Ball Tracking confirms that it's hitting the leg stump. The crowd roars and this is the final nail in the Australian coffin. That was the plan from Lasith Malinga, to bowl the yorker and Chamika lands one to get rid of Australia's last hope.
Matthew Kuhnemannc Charith Asalanka b Dasun Shanaka 15 12 3 0 125
49.6
Dasun Shanaka to Matthew Kuhnemann, OUT! CAUGHT! Sri Lanka win the match by 4 runs and clinch the series with one game to go. Finally, Dasun Shanaka takes the pace off the ball and lands it around middle and off, Matthew Kuhnemann steps back to make room and lofts it unconvincingly to extra cover. Charith Asalanka, the centurion of this match, gets under it and fittingly ends the game. The Lankan players are ecstatic.
