SL vs AUS Live Cricket Score

2.3 OUT! CAUGHT! The dangerous Warner goes for a low score! Good start for the hosts! Dushmantha Chameera tries a short ball for the first time and it is well targeted around leg, cramping David Warner who looks to pull it. he gets a top edge, high in the air and towards fine leg where Maheesh Theekshana runs foward and holds onto it under the scorching heat. 14/1

26.4 OUT! TAKEN! That is a brilliant catch! Dhananjaya de Silva dropped one earlier on but has taken a blinder! Jeffrey Vandersay gets another one and this one too has turned a lot. It lands around leg, pitches and turns away. Finch looks to work it on the leg side but it goes off the leading edge to the right of first slip who dives and takes it with one hand. Two quick wickets and both the set batters are out of here. Australia in trouble now. 121/4

10.3 OUT! TAKEN! Dunith Wellalage breaksthrough! He has been so impressive in the few overs he has bowled and it is a well-deserved wicket. Marsh looking to drive on the up which is never a good idea on this wicket. This is tossed up incely, around off, Marsh looks to drive it hard through covers but hits it straight to Mendis in that region. Good catch and an important stand has been broken. 47/2

24.2 OUT! STUMPED! That is a beauty, a beauty of a delivery! Well deserved wicket for Jeffrey Vandersay! He could have had both Finch and Marnus Labuschagne! Still though, he gets the breakthrough for his side and a welcome one as these two were going along really well. This is tossed up on off, it drifts back in, it lands around middle and leg and then spins away. Marnus Labuschagne puts in a big stride forward and looks to go over covers but fails to get to the pitch of the ball. He misses, He drags out his back foot and Niroshan Dickwella does the rest. Can Lanka build on this now? 116/3

40 OUT! THREE REDS AND CAREY HAS TO WALK BACK! He falls one short of a half ton. Not sure why he reviewed that one. It seemed one more in hope. Dhananjaya de Silve strikes and he breaks the stand at the right time. The two were getting a move on. This is fired on middle, Carey looks to play the paddle scoop but misses to get hit on the pads, right in front. An appeal and the finger is raised. Carey reviews but in vain. He takes a review along with him. A good knock though from Carey. 193/5

44.3 OUT! WHAT A CATCH THAT IS! This guy Dunith Wellalage is a real talent! Can bat decently, can bowl really well and now has taken a stunner. Also, a high pressure catch as it was off Maxwell. Jeffrey Vandersay has his third. He has been really good today. Tosses it up, outside off. Maxwell looks to drag it over long on but since it turns away, he ends up miscuing it towards mid-wicket and long on. Dunith Wellalage runs back and takes a really good catch from mid-wicket. This can now make a difference of at least 15 runs to the final total. 233/6

7.5 OUT! TIMBER! Maxwell gets his man! He says he will do it by himself! On middle, this one goes on with the arm, Niroshan Dickwella looks to play it with a straight bat but with no foot movement. It sneaks between the gap between bat and pad and hits the stumps. Marsh will be a happy man. Important wicket as Dickwella was looking good. 42/1

47.1 OUT! TAKEN! What a catch by David Warner! A special effort was needed to get rid of a man who have done all the damage! Pathum Nissanka, what an innings! A length ball, outside off, slower. Nissanka tries to loft it over covers but fails to power it. Warner runs from the infield and keeps his eyes on the ball. He takes his over his shoulder a one-handed stunner as he gets his left-hand out. 284/3

43.2 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Josh Hazlewood gets the breakthrough but is it too late! A low full toss on middle. Dhananjaya de Silva makes a bit of room and looks to go over covers but the bat turns in his hands and lobs straight back to Josh who stretches his right hand out and takes it. There was not much celebration as now only a flurry of wickets will do for Australia! 37 needed in 40 balls. 255/2

47.4 OUT! TIMBER! Brilliant from Jhye Richardson! Are we in for a miracle here! Is Australia still smelling a close thriller here! Richardson again serves a yorker, on middle. Shanaka this time fails to squeeze it out and the stumps behind are disturbed. 7 needed off 14 runs. 285/4
