As Lahiru Kumara delivered to Labuschagne, an intriguing moment unfolded. Umpire Chris Gaffaney raised his finger, suggesting a potential glove to the keeper. However, Labuschagne seemed confident and immediately called for a review. Upon close examination using UltraEdge, it was revealed that the deflection was off the thigh-pad, not the glove.

AUS vs SL Live: Covers Are Off
The covers are currently being taken off, and we can anticipate the resumption of the chase shortly. The umpires are engaged in a discussion with the stadium authorities, possibly addressing any remaining concerns related to the scaffoldings. Fortunately, we still have a bit of time before we potentially start losing overs due to the rain delay. The fact that the Sri Lankan players are gathered together in a huddle indicates that the resumption of play is imminent.
AUS vs SL Live: Start Delayed
Rain is causing another delay as the groundstaff protect the pitch with a large sheet. Strong winds dismantled parts of the hoardings and scaffoldings during the first innings. Spectators have been evacuated, and the staff is cleaning up. The World Cup branding suffered damage from the heavy wind, and there's some thunder in the vicinity. Despite these challenges, we expect to see plenty of cricket.
AUS vs SL Live: Australia On Top
Australia and Sri Lanka both sought a win. Sri Lanka had a strong start with their openers hitting fifties, but Australia's captain and bowlers turned the game. Apart from the openers, Sri Lanka's batting lacked impact, setting a chaseable 210-run target.

Starc delivers to Lahiru Kumara, and he's bowled out! It's the classic Starc delivery. This dismissal marks the ninth wicket to fall. Cummins, the captain, once again impresses with his strategic changes. The yorker was delivered with precision, catching Lahiru Kumara off guard as he failed to bring his bat down in time. The ball crashes into the base of the stumps. A brilliant performance by the left-arm pacer, who secures his second wicket of the match. Asalanka finds himself in a precarious situation. From a solid start at 125 for no loss, the score now stands at 204 for 9. It's a situation reminiscent of Pakistan's derailment against India. Lahiru Kumara is dismissed, bowled by Starc, after contributing 4 runs from 8 deliveries, including one boundary.

It was a gently pitched delivery that spun inward, and the bat got entangled with the pad. Karunaratne didn't even attempt to bring the bat down to address the line of the ball, making it a straightforward decision for the umpire. It's the seventh wicket to fall, and Zampa claims his third of the match. Karunaratne departs, LBW, bowled by Zampa for just 2 runs off 11 balls.

Cricket World Cup 2023 Live: Sri Lanka's unfortunate losing streak persists while Australia, five-time champions, successfully halted their own struggles.

Labuschagne adopted a steady approach, while Inglis displayed free-spirited batting, achieving his maiden World Cup fifty, easing the path for Australia. Maxwell and Stoinis joined in late, unleashing powerful performances, sealing an early victory for Australia in the 36th over. This match exemplified Australia's championship pedigree and Sri Lanka's struggle to break their losing streak.
