Visiting Sri Lanka cricket team has registered an 8 wicket win over the Australian team to come back into limited-overs tri-series finals contention on Friday in Sydney. Mahela Jayawardane's unbeaten half century led Sri Lanka to a smashing win. Australia were bowled out for just 158, their lowest ODI total at the Sydney Cricket Ground since 1997, after the match was reduced to 41-over innings due to a two-hour rain interruption.
Faced with an amended victory target of 152 after adjustments made under the Duckworth-Lewis Method, the Sri Lankans wasted no time in aggressively chasing down their first win of the tri-series. Jayawardene carried his bat for 61 not out off 67 balls as the Sri Lankans reached the winning total in just the 25th over.
India leads the series by a point from Australia, while Sri Lanka, with a bonus point, are only two behind the host side. Next match is scheduled at Brisbane on Sunday between Australia and India.
