sure it is
Australia 154/0 (24.0 ov)
The Aussies are thrashing Srilanka badly, Lehman could have gone on to break Anwar's 194 if he has stayed for all 50 overs.
He was out on 119 in the 35th over.
What a great batsman, no weak link in the team, all of them are perfect.
Perth is the place where it always been a nightmare for batsman, hence the name "fastest pitch on earth" but Lankan bowlers are not taking any advantages.
