Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Marcus Harrisc Chamika Karunaratne b Vishwa Fernando 11 18 1 0 61.11
3.6
V Fernando to Harris, OUT! One shot too many. Harris departs and that's an early breakthrough for Sri Lanka. Fernando celebrates, along with his teammates. Full and wide outside off, shapes away further, Harris reaches out to it unnecessarily and hands a sharp catch to debutant Chamika Karunaratne at point.
Joe Burnsb Kasun Rajitha 180 260 27 0 69.23
92.5
K Rajitha to Joe Burns, OUT! Dragged on! How unfortunate. Of all the ways he could have gotten out. Joe Burns walks back dejected as he misses out on a double ton, but the crowd gives him a standing ovation. What a knock. Length delivery around off, Burns loosely plays at it and gets a big inside edge which crashes back into the stumps. A well-deserved wicket for Rajitha and Sri Lanka. This is just the start they'd have hoped for today.
Usman Khawajac Kusal Mendis b Vishwa Fernando 0 3 0 0 0
5.3
V Fernando to U Khawaja, OUT! Sri Lanka are off a great start here. Second wicket down already and it's of the solid Usman Khawaja. A poor shot, really. Maybe a lapse in concentration. Full and well outside off, swinging away, Khawaja plays well away from his body without any foot movement. It goes off the edge and flies to Kusal Mendis at second slip who takes a safe catch.
Marnus Labuschagnec Niroshan Dickwella b Chamika Karunaratne 6 11 1 0 54.55
8.4
C Karunaratne to Labuschagne, OUT! Edged and gone! First wicket in Test cricket for debutant Chamika Karunaratne. This is an encouraging start for him and Sri Lanka. Australia in a spot of bother here. This is a good delivery. Chamika keeps it in the off stump channel, on a length, Labuschagne has no choice but to play at it. The ball moves away late, induces the edge and Dickwella behind takes an easy catch diving to his right.
Travis Headlbw b Vishwa Fernando 161 204 21 1 78.92
72.6
V Fernando to Head, OUT! PLUMB! That's it. The partnership is finally broken. 308 runs added by these two. What a knock from Head. Came in at a tough time and steadied the ship. Fernando comes in from round the wicket and lands this on a length on middle and leg. Head misses his flick and gets rapped on his pads. After an appeal, the umpire doesn't hesitate to raise his finger. Travis has a chat with his partner and walks. Can Sri Lanka capitalize on this?

Sri Lanka innings

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Dimuth Karunaratnec Kurtis Patterson b Mitchell Starc 59 95 7 0 62.11
58.5
M Starc to Karunaratne, OUT! Two wickets in the over for Starc. Slightly fuller outside off, Karunaratne sees this as an opportunity to score runs as this is not a short ball. He goes for the drive but gets a thick outside edge and the ball goes to the fielder at backward point. Kurtis Patterson there makes no mistake and holds on to it. The dangerous Karunaratne departs and Australia now on top with half the Sri Lankan side back in the hut.
Lahiru Thirimannec Usman Khawaja b Nathan Lyon 41 105 5 0 39.05
31.6
N Lyon to L Thirimanne, OUT! Finally... gets the line right, gets the length right and bags the wicket as a result. Sri Lanka were jolted in the previous over with Karunaratne's injury, now they've lost Thirimanne. Lyon makes the opener play at this by landing it around off, on a driving length. It turns just enough as Thirimanne pokes at it. The ball goes off the edge and into Usman Khawaja's hands at first slip.
Dinesh Chandimal (C)c Tim Paine b Mitchell Starc 15 28 2 0 53.57
40.3
Starc to D Chandimal, OUT! Starc with a ripper of a delivery. Takes the Sri Lankan skipper by surprise with a short ball and all he can do is awkwardly fend at it and get a glove behind. Paine collects and appeals, the finger goes up and everyone celebrates. The left-armer was bowling in good rhythm, this delivery was just too good for Chandimal. The visitors are slowly losing their way.
Kusal Mendisb Pat Cummins 6 4 1 0 150
34.1
Cummins to K Mendis, OUT! GONE! Absolute jaffa from Pat Cummins. What a delivery. What a delivery! Kusal Mendis was left with no chance to do anything about it. Came in at first after landing on off, straightens up after hitting the deck. Mendis looks to defend after being squared up a bit and the ball goes past the outside edge. The off stump is knocked over and that's another wicket down for Sri Lanka.
Kusal Pereraretired hurt 29 57 5 0 50.88
Dhananjaya de Silvahit wicket b Mitchell Starc 25 63 2 0 39.68
58.2
M Starc to Silva, OUT! This is the most weird and unlucky mode of dismissal. Bouncer from Starc, de Silva looks to hook it but misses. The bat on the followthrough hits the stumps and takes the bails off. The Australian players initially appeal for a catch and it is turned down by the umpire. They soon realize he is hit wicket. Dhananjaya has no clue and he is made to realize it by the Australians. The umpires go upstairs to check and the replays confirm he has hit the stumps with his bat.
Niroshan Dickwella (W)lbw b Marnus Labuschagne 25 22 2 0 113.64
67.1
M Labuschagne to Dickwella, OUT! The on-field call stays. Tossed up delivery on middle, Dickwella gets low to sweep but misses it and gets rapped on the front pad. Loud shout and the finger goes up. Dickwella signals the 'T' and takes it upstairs. Replays show that there is no bat or glove involved and the ball is clipping the top of the stumps. He isn't happy as he thought he got something on it, but Snicko barely showed any spike. Sri Lanka, however, don't lose the review. With that, it's LUNCH ON DAY 3!
Chamika Karunaratnec Mitchell Starc b Nathan Lyon 0 5 0 0 0
59.5
N Lyon to Karunaratne, OUT! Chamika Karunaratne is a goner. Lyon gets his second wicket. Tossed up on off, the ball spins after pitching. Chamika looks to defend it but gets an inside edge onto the pads. The ball lobs to Mitchell Starc at leg gully and he takes a simple catch moving to his left. Lyon gets his second wicket.
Dilruwan Pererac Tim Paine b Mitchell Starc 10 25 2 0 40
68.1
M Starc to D Perera, OUT! Another wicket down! Dilruwan the man to depart this time as Starc has his fourth. A loosener really, outside off at 140 clicks. Perera looks to cut this away but instead gets a feather behind. Tim Paine takes a simple catch.
Kasun Rajithanot out 0 5 0 0 0
Vishwa Fernandob Mitchell Starc 0 2 0 0 0
68.3
M Starc to Fernando,OUT! Five-wicket haul for Mitchell Starc. Full on off, the ball swings away just a hint after pitching. Fernando looks to defend but misses. The ball shatters the off pole. It is too good a delivery for a number 11 batsman. Venomous spell by Mitchell Starc and he gets his 10th Test 5-fer. Since Kusal Perera won't come out to bat, Sri Lanka are effectively bowled out for 215.

3.4
K Rajitha to Harris, OUT! Harris is a goner. Full on off, Harris looks to drive it but with very minimal foot movement. The ball gets a thick outside edge and it goes to the fielder at second slip. Kusal Mendis there dives in front and takes a good low catch. Harris will be gutted with himself. He was looking good but has to walk back.
Joe Burnsc Kusal Mendis b Vishwa Fernando 9 21 1 0 42.86
6.5
V Fernando to Burns, OUT! Brilliant catch from Kusal Mendis. Full around off, Burns goes after it looking to push but gets a thick outside edge. It looked like it was falling short of the fielder at first slip but Mendis dives to his left from second slip and takes a good low catch. A big wicket for Sri Lanka, the centurion from the last innings has departed. Two quick wickets down now for the Aussies.

K Rajitha to Labuschagne, OUT! Edged and taken! Third wicket down for Australia, Rajitha gets his second. Behind a good length, outside off and shapes away late, Labuschagne feels for it and the edge is induced. It goes behind where Dickwella dives to his right and takes a decent catch.

Sri Lanka innings

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Dimuth Karunaratneb Mitchell Starc 8 21 2 0 38.1
8.1
Starc to D Karunaratne, OUT! Wonderful delivery. Great start for the Australians. Length delivery on middle and off, the ball jags back into the batsman. Karunaratne tries to drive it but the ball goes perfectly between his bat and pad and takes the bail on the leg stump. It is a big wicket for the Australians as he has a good record in the 3rd and 4th innings and was one of the better batsmen in the first innings for his side in this Test.
Lahiru Thirimannec & b Pat Cummins 30 81 2 0 37.04
22.4
Cummins to Thirimanne, OUT! GONE! What a delivery from Pat Cummins. Took Thirimanne completely by surprise. Bangs it in short, on middle, comes at just under 140 clicks, Thirimanne awkwardly tries to fend it away but it comes off the splice. Lobs just ahead of him but the bowler is alert to it. He rushes to the ball and dives to take a wonderful catch. Sri Lanka lose another wicket.
Dinesh Chandimal (C)c Marnus Labuschagne b Mitchell Starc 4 9 0 0 44.44
12.6
M Starc to Chandimal, OUT! Starc gets his second of the day. Length delivery on off, the ball swings away from the batsman after pitching. Chandimal looks to defend it but gets done in by the late swing and it finds the thick outside edge of his bat. The ball goes towards third slip and Marnus Labuschagne there takes a very good low catch. The umpire isn't sure if it's a clean catch, so takes it's upstairs. The replays confirm he caught that clean and the Lankan skipper walks back. First real threat ball to Dinesh Chandimal and he falls into the trap.
Niroshan Dickwella (W)b Mitchell Starc 27 42 3 0 64.29
28.2
M Starc to Dickwella, OUT! Third of the day for Starc. Has some luck with this one but he's done well to maintain that tight line. Length delivery on off, it is bowled at 142 clicks. It is fast and straight and keeps low as well. Dickwella looks to defend but the low bounce beats him and it hits middle and off. A decent start from the Lankan wicket-keeper batsman comes to an end. His promotion up the order hasn't worked.
Kusal Mendisc Kurtis Patterson b Marnus Labuschagne 42 69 3 1 60.87
44.6
M Labuschagne to Mendis, OUT! Finally... Australia break this partnership. It's been a gritty and patient knock from Mendis, but it's come to an end. Flighted delivery outside off, Mendis drives it uppishly and it goes at a rapid pace to the fielder at short cover. Kurtis Patterson there takes a good reflex catch. Good captaincy by Tim Paine, great field placement.
Kusal Pererac Tim Paine b Mitchell Starc 0 1 0 0 0
28.3
M Starc to Perera, OUT! Two in two for Starc. Full outside off and a bit of inward movement, Perera looks to drive it with minimal foot movement, but gets beaten by the inward movement and it takes the inside edge. Tim Paine takes a good low catch. Perera's return to the crease is extremely short lived and maybe yesterday's concussion has had a bit of impact on him. Half the Sri Lankan side sent back. Starc on a hat-trick. Can he get it?
Dhananjaya de Silvac Travis Head b Jhye Richardson 6 13 1 0 46.15
31.6
J Richardson to Silva, OUT! Sri Lanka lose their sixth wicket. Good length delivery on middle, there is a hint of reverse swing in this one as well. Dhananjaya de Silva flicks it uppishly to mid-wicket. Travis Head there takes a good catch. First wicket of the session and it falls to Jhye Richardson. It is also his first of the innings.
Chamika Karunaratnec Tim Paine b Pat Cummins 22 38 4 0 57.89
45.4
Pat Cummins to Karunaratne, OUT! Pat Cummins strikes. Never in doubt, was it? Length delivery outside off, Karunaratne goes after it and gets a thick outside edge. The ball goes to the keeper and Tim Paine takes an easy catch. Only a matter of time now.
Dilruwan Pererac Tim Paine b Pat Cummins 4 9 1 0 44.44
49.1
Pat Cummins to Perera, OUT! Good length delivery around off, Perera goes after the push but gets an outside edge. Tim Paine behind the stump takes an easy catch. Australia just one wicket away from sealing this Test match and series.

50.6
Starc to Fernando, OUT! A 10-wicket haul for Mitchell Starc. He's back! Incredible bowling display. Gets to the milestone in typical fashion. Comes from wide of the crease and fires the yorker on middle, too good for Fernando who can't do anything about it. Smiles and handshakes all around, the people in the stadium erupt in joy. The team needed it, the crowd needed it. A good feeling all around. AUSTRALIA WIN BY 366 RUNS AND CLEANSWEEP SRI LANKA 2-0!
