Sri Lanka Crush Australia By Record 174-run In ODI Series Sweep
Sri Lanka delivered a commanding performance, bowling Australia out for their lowest-ever ODI total in Asia to seal a 174-run victory and complete a dominant 3-0 series sweep at the R. Premadasa Stadium here on Friday. The win marked Sri Lanka’s biggest-ever margin of victory against Australia in ODIs, a statement result as the visitors gear up for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy.
Set a target of 282, Australia crumbled to just 107, their eighth-lowest total in ODI history, as their batting frailties were brutally exposed. It was a stunning collapse for Steve Smith’s side, who had arrived in Sri Lanka on a high after their 2-0 Test series triumph but will now need to regroup quickly with the Champions Trophy in Pakistan and UAE just days away.
