Australia defeated Sri Lanka in the 5th and final ODI on Friday but lost the series 3-2. Chamika Karunaratne (75 from as many balls) scored nearly half the hosts’ total of 160 in a feisty rear-guard, helping to put on 75 for the final two wickets on the way to the second highest ODI score by a Sri Lankan No.8.
Bewitched by finger-spinners Maheesh Theeskahnna (2-26) and Dunith Wellalage (3-42), Australia slumped to 4-50 amid hectic start to their run chase but a composed Alex Carey (45no) guided the tourists home with 10.3 overs to spare.
Green ends the match with a six!!! All over. Australia win by 4 wickets but lose series 3-2. They almost made a meal of a low run chase and Sri Lanka will be proud of their bowling attack.
Australia won the final ODI by 4 wickets and Sri Lanka clinch the ODI series 3-2!
