Another top bowling performance by Josh Hazlewood, in the Super Over, conceding just 5 runs, saw Australia to a thrilling victory and take a 2-0 in the 5 match T20I series against Sri Lanka.
Earlier, Australia had posted a competitive 164/6 in their 20 overs, mainly thanks to Josh Inglis (48) and a last over flurry from Matthew Wade 13*.
Sri Lanka managed to tie the score in a thrilling run chase, however, they were unable to get Hazlewood away in the super over and came out on the wrong side of an entertaining encounter.
