Thats the end of the match here at SuperSport Park, Centurion Australia win this by 96 runs
Valiant run-chase from the Sri Lankan batsmen, but 319 was always going to be imposing
The Australian batted well to put up the score of 319, ponting was the hero with 114 and Gilchrist (99) played their part well
Fernando grabs 3 wickets for 47 runs yet another classic bowling display by the Australians bowlers
. de Silva played a good innings today - made 92 off 94 balls lee ended the day with 3 wickets, 2 for McGrath and Hogg
