The T20I series between Sri Lanka and Australia culminated in breathtaking fashion with the hosts chasing down a 176 run target set by Australia with just 1 ball to spare.

Sri Lanka looked down-and-out of the contest when they lost their 6th wicket at 108 runs halfway through the 15th over. At the time, they still needed 69 from 26 balls with skipper Dasun Shanaka the only recognized batsman at the crease.
