SL vs AUS Live Cricket Score

10.4 OUT! LBW! The Aussie skipper is gone. This is pushed quicker by Dushan, in line of the stumps, on a fractionally fuller length. Mitchell Marsh is neither on the front foot, nor does he commit on the back foot, hangs somewhere in the middle and tries to block it out, but seems to have got beaten on the inside edge as the ball thuds the flap of the back pad. There is a lengthy appeal for LBW, but the umpire denies. Mendis is pleading to the umpire from behind the stumps and the Sri Lankans eventually go upstairs for a review. Nothing on UltraEdge and the Ball Tracking shows that the ball is projected to hit the middle stump. Brilliant review from the Lankans. 116/3

8.3 OUT! CAUGHT! You live by the sword and die by it. Head was looking to hit each and every ball out of the park and his 'cameo' ends on a fine 56.  Floated wide outside off, Head reaches out to go over cover and wide long off, but is not quite to the pitch of the ball. He has to reach out and hence, does not get the full elevation. Wide long off is waiting and the ball flies straight to him, with Kamindu Mendis making no mistake at wide long off. AUSTRALIA ARE 104/1 AFTER 8.3 OVERS! 104/1

10 OUT! STUMPED! Sri Lanka have two wickets in quick time now. Full, wide, and cleverly fired in, almost as if the bowler saw the charge coming. Green comes dancing down but ends up miles away from the pitch of the ball. He swings hard but fails to get the connection. Mendis collects the ball cleanly behind the stumps and does the rest with ease, whipping off the bails. Australia are 110/2. 110/2

12.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Another one falls in this suicide mission. Floated, outside off, Tim David thinks that this is in his arc and swings with all his might. But he is not quite to the pitch of the ball and gets massive height. Not the distance. Long off is waiting and Dushan Hemantha makes no mistake. From 104/0, AUSTRALIA ARE NOW 130/4! 130/4

17.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Wow. You need to read this. Again and again. An Aussie batter, that too from Perth, has been bounced out by a Lankan seamer! A quick short ball, outside off, Josh Inglis goes for the pull instinctively. But he is beaten for pace - that's right - beaten for pace, with the speed gun reading 140 kph and gets a top edge which goes straight up in the air. Three fielders go for it - the bowler, the keeper and point. In the end, Dunith Wellalage calls for it coming in from point and takes it calmly. After a series of slower balls, Inglis was caught napping on this fast one. From 160/4, AUSTRALIA ARE NOW 174/6! 13 balls left. 174/6

16.1 OUT! BLINDER OF A CATCH! That's how you bounce back, son! Dropped a sitter, but makes up for it with a screamer! Maxwell gets a taste of his own medicine. Normally, it is he who flies, who leaps and makes gravity's definition questionable. Full, around middle and off, Glenn Maxwell gets down and employs the reverse sweep. It is played powerfully and the ball flies over backward point. But Pathum Nissanka flies to his left and takes a stunner with both hands, landing behind! The Lankans are celebrating but Maxwell is asked to wait. The third umpire is called to check the legality of the catch and the replay shows that Nissanka is in total control of the catch. Maxwell looks stone faced, but even he would have admired that effort. Take a bow, Pathum. An important 30-run stand is broken and AUSTRALIA ARE 160/5 AFTER 16.1 OVERS! 160/5

19.3 OUT! CAUGHT! The jerseys seem to be swapped in the field! Sri Lanka have simply been outstanding in the field tonight. Another slower ball, 115.4 kph, on a length, outside off. Angling away, Stoinis swings hard, but gets a thick outside edge behind. The ball is dipping, but Maheesh Theekshana flings himself to his right at short third and takes another stinger! 160/4 has now become 180/8 for Australia! 180/8

18.3 OUT! CAUGHT! 6th wicket to spin. Floated, around middle and leg, Cooper Connolly goes for a big slog. But he only manages a thick top edge. Short third hares to his right, is about to collide with short fine leg, but the latter backs off in time. Kusal Perera keeps his eyes on the ball and dives full stretch to take the catch! Cooper is conned and from 160/4, AUSTRALIA ARE NOW 177/7! 9 balls left. 177/7

19.5 OUT! XAVIER BARTLETT IS RUN OUT! Another slower ball, 120 kph, on a length, outside off. Ellis looks to swing but is months early into the shot. The batters go for the bye and the keeper, Kusal Mendis, underarms his shy at the striker's end. Hits bull's eye and Bartlett is gone by a mile. 180/9

20 OUT! AUSTRALIA HAVE BEEN BOWLED OUT FOR 181! Adam Zampa is gone and it will be another run out to close out the innings. On a length, outside off, 116.9 kph, Adam Zampa eases this through the covers. It is a no brainer to come back for the second but the fielder is up for it as well. Kamindu Mendis charges to the ball and returns the throw to the keeper Mendis, Kusal, with the throw coming right in front of the keeper. Kusal collects and whips the bails off, with Zampa nowhere in the frame. 181/10

1.2 OUT! CAUGHT! The Sanath Jayasuriya version of the current generation departs cheaply. A short ball, outside off, there to be hit and Perera does hit it. Goes hard at that, but the extra bounce does him in. The ball hits the higher part of the bat and goes very high in the air. Also, he has to reach out for the ball as well, which reduces the power on the shot. Nathan Ellis is waiting for it patiently at deep point and takes the catch. Stoinis has a look at the batter, as if to give a send off, but Perera is not interested. SRI LANKA ARE 8/1. Equation - 174 RUNS, 112 BALLS! 8/1

12.2 OUT! TAKEN! Pallekele goes silent as Stoinis breaks the 97-run partnership for the second wicket. Length ball on middle at 130.9 kph, Kusal Mendis looks to go big with a front foot heave but miscues it towards the longer side of the boundary. It goes high but not far, and Cooper Connolly settles under it at the edge of the boundary to take it safely in the deep mid-wicket region. 105/2
