And on that note it's a wrap from us. Australia have set a marker for this series, and Sri Lanka will have about five days to reflect till the start of the second Test on the Feb 6, which is this coming Thursday. But from us, that's about that. On behalf of Abhimanyu and the rest of the team, this is Madushka signing out.

Steve Smith: "I thought we started the Test beautifully, Usman and Travis up top really set the tone. Usman's innings was outstanding, to get his first double hundred, the way he went about it and the shots he played. The pressure he put on the bowlers was outstanding, and throughout that innings we had plenty of good partnerships. And to get 650 allowed us to bowl twice. Thought Starcy did a tremendous job with the new ball and the spinners did a great job as well. [surface?] I think it broke up as it went on. That first day probably didn't quite reflect the score perhaps. It was a little bit tacky and still taking some spin. Thought we batted extremely well, and gave us a chance to press the game and get to a position that we wanted to. I thought the bowlers bowled really well in tandem, the beauty of having three frontline spinners is you can just rotate and keep guys as fresh as possible. [10000 runs?] Never thought I'd score this many runs. Thought playing just one Test for Australia was a dream growing up. To have played over a 100 now and scored 10,000 runs it's a dream come true. And it was nice to contribute in this game as well with a hundred."

Dhananjaya de Silva: "[how important is the toss in Galle?] It's very important. Chasing 600+ runs is not easy. [batters] The wicket was not that hard, but the ball was turning. But the batters have to put their hands up and put the opposition under pressure. [chances not taken?] Yes of course, losing hurts always. We had our chances, reviews and catches dropped. We made chances but never taken. We have to put our bodies on the line and play well. They are champion side, in the WTC final, so we have to up our game for the next Test."

Unsurprisingly the Player of the Match goes to Usman Khawaja for his first innings 232: "It's just nice to score some runs and contribute to a winning team. Galle's always a tough place to play for us, so it's nice to get a good start. [Journey from a month ago] To be honest a month ago I was on the top of the world too, we won 3-1. Cricket is a team game and you want to score all the time, but it's not always possible. So hopefully when you don't score someone else does, and when someone else doesn't you score. That's the point. That 3-1 against was tough work, we were all very tired. But to come here and start the series off well, we're very happy. [playing spin] I've got my own plans to spin, I'm 38 now this is my 5th trip to Sri Lanka. I've made all the mistakes I know I can make, I know there are certain ways I'm happy to get out and certain ways I'm not. I just work around that, that's the most important thing."

3.25pm Alright then, time for the post-match presentation...

Michael: "Incredible, the men's and women's Australian test teams both won by an innings and the games ended at almost exactly the same time!"

Thanks Abhimanyu. Sri Lanka then with plenty to ponder then, with this not only their biggest defeat at home, it's also the heaviest defeat in Sri Lanka's history. Further, it's the second highest innings victory at this ground, and only the second time Sri Lanka have been subjected to an innings defeat in Galle - the last coming all the way back in 2000 against Pakistan.

3.20pm Australia win their fourth-biggest Test win, and their ninth in Sri Lanka! It's been a stunning display from Lyon and Kuhnemann. Sri Lanka showed fight at the end, but it was never going to be enough, despite rain doing it's best over the last two days to try and slow down Australia's win. And who can forget Khawaja's double century and Smith and Inglis' special tons? The teams shake hands. Madushka will be back to take you through the presentation.

Around the wicket now
