  1. SL 38-1published at 6 overs

    A skilful paddle from Harshitha Samarawickrama has the ball trickling to the fence.

    With Athapaththu gone, Harshitha is the main star now.

    Harshitha Madavi played a very important innings against Bangladesh and she is doing well again today.

  3. SL 31-1published at 5.2 overs

    Megan Schutt continues, hoping to keep the pressure on.

    Vishmi Gunaratne inside-edges one to third to get off the mark. Nervy.

  4. SL 30-1published at 5 overs

    That's such a big wicket as well, Chamari Athapaththu was in good form.

    Vishmi Gunaratne is the next batter in.

    That is absolutely outstanding from Grace Harris. It was a difficult catch.

    Athapaththu c Harris b Perry 16

    Sri Lanka skipper Chamari Athapaththu edges the ball high into the air but she looks to be getting away with it, there isn't a fielder in sight.

    But what's that flying through the air? It's Grace Harris who sprints backwards before diving to clutch on to the ball.

    A top grab, just what Australia needed.

  7. SL 29-0published at 4 overs

    Athapaththu 16, Harshitha 12

    Australia make yet another bowling change. Ellyse Perry will have a go now.

    Was this always the plan or are they reacting to a fab start from Sri Lanka?

    Chamari Athapaththu looks in fine touch, that was a beautiful slog-sweep.

  9. 6 runs

    SL 29-0published at 3.4 overs

    Launched!

    Chamari Athapaththu gets down on one knee and slog-sweeps one over the leg-side boundary and into the crowd. Australia's Plan B ain't working either.

    I think this wicket is going to get harder to bat on.

  11. SL 22-0published at 3.1 overs

    Another half chance for Australia as Chamari Athapaththu sweeps Ash Gardner but ends up edging it over the keeper with the ball landing safe.

    This pitch looks a tricky one to bat on. I reckon 21 runs off three overs is a top start.

    It's great to see the Sri Lankan players being aggressive.

  14. SL 21-0published at 3 overs

    Seven runs from Schutt's opening over. Sri Lanka are building something.

    These players don't come up against the Australian players too much and they want to put up a good fight when they do.

  16. SL 16-0published at 2.1 overs

    Australia stick with pace as Megan Schutt joins the attack.

    And almost the breakthrough as a leading edge from Harshitha only just clears the inner ring of fielders.

    Not the best delivery from Brown, it was too full and wide.

  18. SL 14-0published at 2 overs

    Same again from Athapaththu who carves another wide delivery to the ropes.

    No need to run, that's four more. Australia's plan a hasn't worked.

  19. SL 10-0published at 1.3 over

    Teenager Darcie Brown is dispatched by Sri Lanka skipper Chamari Athapaththu who drives the ball through extra cover for four classy runs.

    Sri Lanka are taking this game to the defending champions.
