The hosts won the toss and were off to a sensational start. David Warner could only hit boundaries and the Sri Lankans were made to fetch the ball at will.

Matthew Wade (L) hit 64 off 72 balls but his innings was mostly in support of his more aggressive partner. The two put on 136 before Nuwan Kulasekara dismissed Wade.

Despite the loss, Warner went about his business with ease and completed his century. His eventual score of 163 off 157 along with Michael Clarke's 37 off 25 took Australia to 321.

The reply was splendid but only briefly. Tillakaratne Dilshan (in pic) hit 27 off 22 and skipper Mahela Jayawardena had 14 of as many deliveries before both were dismissed by Brett Lee.
