lbw b Maheesh Theekshana 10.1 OUT LBW! Another one bites the dust and there are two new batters in space of two balls. Maheesh Theekshana bowls from 'round the wicket and angles a full ball, around middle and leg. Warner stays back and leans to defend but misses and the ball hits him on the pads. A huge appeal for LBW and nothing given from the umpire. Sri Lanka take the review. UltraEdge shows no bat there. David Warner is already walking back as Ball Tracking shows three reds. Out it is. 85/3 45.45% DotBall 54.55% Scoring Shots 5 Ball per Boundary
Aaron Finch C	29	20	5	0	145
b Maheesh Theekshana 5.4 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! A much-needed wicket for Sri Lanka! Maheesh Theekshana draws first blood. Aaron Finch departs after yet another fine knock. Much slower this time, tosses it up, full and around off. Aaron Finch gets down on his knee and tries to sweep this but he misses as the ball spins in and knocks the off pole. Maheesh Theekshana punches the air in delight! 43/1 45% DotBall 55% Scoring Shots 4 Ball per Boundary
Glenn Maxwell	16	9	0	2	177.77
c Danushka Gunathilaka b Wanindu Hasaranga 10 OUT! TAKEN! Wanindu Hasaranga strikes! He gets rid of the dangerous, Glenn Maxwell! A wicket at a perfect time for Sri Lanka. Another googly, full in length, around middle and off. Glenn Maxwell dances down the track and smashes it towards long on. He does so without any elevation, that has been hit very flat, and Danushka Gunathilaka at long on pouches it safely. Australia have lost their second wicket! 85/2 33.33% DotBall 66.67% Scoring Shots 4 Ball per Boundary

run out (Charith Asalanka) 10.2 OUT! RUN OUT! Team Hat-Trick! What a turnaround this is from Sri Lanka! Josh Inglis goes for a golden duck. Australia are losing their way here! This is full and on middle. Inglis paddles it and the ball rolls away behind the keeper. Charith Asalanka at first slip, anticipates and moves across quickly to stop it. Meanwhile, there is an adrenaline rush for Inglis who tries to take a run which is not available there. He is sent back and Asalanka scores a direct hit at the keeper's end. Even the keeper had enough time to clip the bails off but he was not required there. Brilliant work from Charith Asalanka and Sri Lanka have found good momentum here. 85/4 100% DotBall 0% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Marcus Stoinis	38	23	3	1	165.21
st Kusal Mendis b Praveen Jayawickrama 16 OUT! STUMPED! Praveen Jayawickrama does have the last laugh! He gets his man! Lovely delivery by him this time. A loopy one, slower through the air, full, around off. Marcus Stoinis shimmies down the track and swings his bat but he misses as the ball spins away from him. Kusal Mendis collects the ball and whips the bails off. Marcus Stoinis departs! 133/5 17.39% DotBall 82.61% Scoring Shots 5 Ball per Boundary

c Jhye Richardson b Josh Hazlewood 3.2 OUT! TAKEN! Josh Hazlewood draws first blood and Sri Lanka have lost Danushka Gunathilaka! A slower ball on this occasion, around middle.

c Josh Hazlewood b Marcus Stoinis 10.5 OUT! TAKEN! A soft dismissal! Marcus Stoinis grabs his second wicket of the game and Sri Lanka have lost their third. Pathum Nissanka walks back now. This was a shorter ball, wide of off. Pathum Nissanka stays in crease, and tries to cut this away, but the ball goes off the outside edge towards short third man.

Charith Asalanka	26	19	3	1	136.84
c Aaron Finch b Marcus Stoinis 8.2 OUT! TAKEN! A break through for Australia and at a very crucial time! This is short and on middle, touch steep bounce as well. Charith Asalanka stays back to pull but closes the face of the bat and it goes off the leading edge, high in the air and to short fine leg where Aaron Finch takes it with ease. 67/2 31.58% DotBall 68.42% Scoring Shots 4 Ball per Boundary
Bhanuka Rajapaksa	17	13	1	1	130.76
lbw b Ashton Agar 12.2 OUT! LBW! Ashton Agar gets rid of the dangerous Bhanuka Rajapaksa. This is a huge wicket for Australia and Sri Lanka are in a spot of bother now. Ashton Agar tosses it up, full, much straighter on middle. Bhanuka Rajapaksa gets down on his knee and tries to sweep this but he misses. A huge appeal for LBW, but the umpire says no! Ashton Agar seems confident though and Aaron Finch opts for a review! UltraEdge confirms no bat involved! Ball Tracking indicates three reds and Bhanuka Rajapaksa has to walk back! 96/4 38.46% DotBall 61.54% Scoring Shots 6 Ball per Boundary
Kusal Mendis Wk	6	8	1	0	75
b Josh Hazlewood 13.5 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Sri Lanka have lost half their side now. The pressure was building and so Kusal Mendis tries to be cheeky. A length ball, outside off. Kusal Mendis shuffles across and tries to scoop this over but he misses. The ball ricochets off his thigh pads and goes onto hit the stumps. Josh Hazlewood gets his second wicket and Sri Lanka are in trouble here! 98/5 62.5% DotBall 37.5% Scoring Shots 8 Ball per Boundary
