Australia vs Sri Lanka, 2nd T20I

After succumbing to an embarrassing 134-run defeat in the opening match, Lasith Malinga opted to bat in the second T20I.

Kusal Perera, top-scorer of Sri Lanka, tried to play a cheeky late-dab and ended up cannoning an Agar's slider onto his sticks.

Billy Stanlake, coming into the team in place of Starc, bagged two wickets - Gunathilaka and Shanaka.

Zampa conceded just one boundary in his impressive spell: 4-0-20-2.

Sri Lanka bowled out for a below-par 117 with Cummins taking the stumps off the groove to catch Sandakan short of his crease.

Skipper Malinga got the early breakthrough by removing his counterpart in the first over.

Coming on the back of a maiden T20I hundred, David Warner registered his 14th half-ton in the shortest format.

Steve Smith recorded his third T20I fifty fifty and reached the landmark in just 32 deliverers.

The duo of Warner and Smith stitched an unbeaten 117-run stand for the second wicket which ensured a comfortable 9-wicket win for Australia.
