Wellalage - the batting allrounder who likewise bowls left-arm turn - first went through the Australia batting with a five-for to bowl them out for 175. Furthermore when Sri Lanka were 49 for 4 in their pursuit, he smacked 52 to set up their success.
Despite the fact that Wellalage top-scored in the pursuit, he was capably helped from the No. 6 and negative. 7 players who came after him. Wicketkeeper Anjala Bandara made 33 in a 70-run fifth-wicket remain with Wellalage. Also from that point onward, Wellalage added a further 52 with Ranuda Somarathne. After Wellalage fell, Somarathne saw the pursuit off to complete unbeaten on 32.
Australia's just splendid spot was their opener Campbell Kellaway, who made 54. Wellalage, who presented himself as the 6th bowler, made the most harm through the center overs. In the wake of eliminating Kellaway in the 29th over, he shook the stumps two times in the 31st to excuse Nivethan Radhakrishnan (21) and Tobias Snell.
Those three wickets in fast time saw Australia tumble from 107 for 3 to 112 for 6, and if not for William Salzmann's 22, they would've collapsed for a lot lesser.
