England will begin their campaign in the series on Tuesday and will bank on big hitters like Phil Mustard and Dmitri Mascarenhas to power Tremlett’s side in the opening fixture. Sri Lankan side is studded with World Cup winners like Chaminda Vaas and Nuwan Kulasekara, who won the 1996 World Cup and 2014 T20 World Cup respectively.
For Sri Lanka, apart from skipper, Dilshan Munaweera also scored 95 not out as they piled up a massive 218/1 after batting first. In reply, Australia were bowled out for 180 with Nathan Reardon top-scoring with 46 off 19 balls. Kulasekara was pick of the Lankan bowlers, claiming 4/36 while Jeevan Mendis scalped 2/14.
A terrific knock from the skipper, truly picking up from his man of the series performance from last year!#RoadSafetyWorldSeries #RSWS #SLLvsAUSL #srilankalegends #dilshan #Cricket #playerofthematch #roadsafetyawareness #roadsafety pic.twitter.com/b1aDWXd14C
