[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Another disappointing performance with the bat saw Sri Lanka stumble to just 117 runs after winning the toss and electing to bat first in the 2nd T20 against Australia in Gabba.

Sri Lanka made three changes from their last match. Avishka Fernando, Niroshan Dickwella and Isuru Udana were in for Bhanuka Rajapaksha, Oshadha Fernando and Kasun Rajitha. Malinga won the toss and elected to bat first. Mendis was the first to get out through some lethargic running between the wickets. Dhanushka Gunathilaka played some expansive strokes in his short stay at the crease. He perished once again trying to come down the track against the tall Billy Stanlake.

Kusal Perera started off well with boundary off the first ball. He looked to be the only batsmen who was settled in the crease but he chopped one to the stumps off Ashton Agar, leaving the lions in deep trouble. Cummins, Stanlake, Agar and Zampa shared 2 wickets each as Sri Lanka scrapped through to a modest 117 runs.
