SL VS AUS - 2nd T20I, Australia tour of Sri Lanka, 2022

So Australia have wrapped up the series with a game to go. The teams will head to Pallekele for the final T20I which takes place on Saturday. That's it for now. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. Goodbye!

Finch, Australia captain: Our bowling did a fantastic job to restrict Sri Lanka. The wicket probably deteriorated towards the end. Matthew Wade showed his experience there. Little bit of panic in our innings, but it can happen in conditions like these and when the crowd gets involved. In the powerplay you're always looking to be aggressive. We know the wicket is going to get slower as the innings goes on.

Shanaka, SL captain: We were right there but unfortunately we weren't able to capitalise at the end. Today the top-order fell early. At the end we were struggling with the conditions.

Wade, Player of the Match: We gave a little bit of sniff tonight. When they get momentum they're a hard team to stop. Thankfully the guys got off to a flier so the run rate wasn't an issue.

22:37 Local Time, 17:07 GMT, 22:37 IST: Wade steers Australia to victory after what turned into a dramatic run chase. The visitors smashed down a similar target yesterday, but that wasn't the case today as they were given quite a scare. Wanindu Hasaranga ran through the middle-order as Australia collapsed to 99/7 with the crowd right behind the home team. But Wade and Richardson didn't panic, they kept their heads and knocked off the remaining runs. Sri Lanka's batting was the big let-down again, managing only a paltry 124 after being put in to bat. Their bowlers gave it everything, made a game of it but in the end it wasn't enough.
