Aussie bowlers restrict Sri Lanka to 128-9
The hosts, who are looking to give retiring batsman Tillakaratne Dilshan a winning farewell, suffered from a lack of partnerships after electing to bat first. Australian bowlers James Faulkner and Adam Zampa claimed three wickets each as John Hastings took two. Medium-pacer Hastings struck first with the wicket of Dilshan who edged a wide delivery to give away a catch to Australian skipper David Warner at slip. He scored one off three balls. The 39-year-old Dilshan was given a standing ovation by a raucous home crowd as he bowed down near the edge of the boundary after his last innings in international cricket. However, the inventer of the ´dilscoop´, the cheeky paddle shot that Dilshan played over the wicketkeeper´s head, did **t have a chance to execute the audacious stroke in his 80th T20. Kusal Perera and de Silva, who scored 62 off 50 balls, tried to counter the Aussie bowlers by hitting a few boundaries in the first six overs of powerplay with only two fielders allowed outside the 30-yard circle. The left-handed Perera, who scored an 18-ball 22, fell to Faulkner as Warner took a superb diving catch at mid-on to check the Lankan surge. Faulkner took a**ther wicket in his second over to get Sri Lankan captain Dinesh Chandimal caught and bowled for four. Zampa and Hastings soon took over to rattle the Sri Lankan middle-order as wickets fell at regular intervals at the R Premadasa Stadium. De Silva, whose defiant k**ck was laced with five boundaries, kept up the fight till the final over when he got out to Mitchell Starc. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Aussie bowlers restrict Sri Lanka to 128-9 || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
