Welcome
Hello and welcome to what will surely be the final day of this Test series!
The Aussies are on the brink of a comfortable victory, provided the tail doesn’t wag too much here. Sri Lanka resume at 8-211, a lead of just 54.
Kusal Mendis is still at the crease on 48, but you’d suspect it’s going to take some serious hitting to get the lead into three figures and give Australia any kind of jitters.
