END OF OVER:
50 | 7 Runs 1 Wkt | SL: 300/7 | RR: 6.00

  • Kusal Mendis86 (87b)
  • Josh Hazlewood10-0-54-1
  • Jhye Richardson8-0-64-1

And that's the first half done. That feels like a very good total for Sri Lanka. It was set up by the century opening stand, the middle-order recovery was marshaled by Kusal Mendis and the finishing touches added in some style by Wanindu Hasaranga. Ashton Agar the pick of the attack for Australia although there may be an injury concern around him. Marnus Labuschagne picked up a brace when used late but there was some treatment around for the quicks. Did Australia get the balance of their attack wrong? Sri Lanka have plenty of spinners in their line-up. Will be an interesting chase. Madushka will be back for the start of it
