That's a wrap to our coverage of this game. Promised to be a close affair at the innings break but Australia made short work of things eventually. Four more games in the series and the Lankans will hope that their batters adapt better in the coming matches. Let's hope we get more competitive games than this one. On that note, this is Hari Sadanandan signing off on behalf of Raju Peethala and Venkatesh. Cheers!
23:21 Local Time, 12:21 GMT, 17:51 IST: One of those games that was virtually over long before it was actually completed. 149 seemed a below-par score at the break but Australia's potent bowling attack made optimal use of a tacky two-paced SCG surface to slice through the Sri Lankan batting line-up. Barring Nissanka to some extent, none of the SL batters seemed comfortable at the crease and there were numerous mishits and runs off edges. Chandimal at the end hit a few blows but that was more about reducing the margin of defeat than anything else. Hazlewood and Zampa were the standouts with the ball, and were ably complimented by the rest. Sri Lanka should be disappointed, as it was a good opportunity for them to beat the World Champions but the hosts were too good in the end.

Starc to Chandimal, 1 run, very full and straight, jammed out past mid-on. Australia complete a comfortable win to go 1-0 up

Starc to Chandimal, FOUR, fortune for Chandimal! He had no clue to this one, heaved blindly and got a top-edge over short third
18.4
Starc to Chandimal, no run, made room for the inside out drive, got a full toss but couldn't put it away. Jammed to mid-off

18.3
Starc to Chandimal, SIX, super shot! Overpitched and Chandimal plays a glorious lofted drive over extra cover. Made a hint of room, bent his back leg and struck through the line

18.2
Starc to Binura Fernando, 1 run, very full and on off, jammed out to cover where Inglis fields sharply and has a shy at the bowler's end. Direct hit would have had Fernando but the throw misses and they eventually get the overthow

Starc to Chandimal, 1 run, short of a length on off stump, Chandimal heaves and mistimes this down to long-on. Wasn't all that far away from the fielder
