Sri Lanka vs Australia, 2nd Test - Live Cricket Score

After thwarting hosts Sri Lanka in the first Test match at Galle, the Australian side is all set to take them again for the second and final Test match slated to take place on February 6 at Galle International Cricket Stadium. As the anticipation builds for his high-stakes encounter, the cricket fraternity is eager to witness if the hosts can level up the series or if Steve Smith and his team will secure a historic sweep for the first time since 2011. 

The visitors will be heading to this Test thriller with confidence after their blistering, dominant innings and 242-run win in the series-opening Test match. With batters Usman Khawaja, Steve Smith, and Josh Inglis showcasing their batting prowess, Australia will be looking to continue their aggressive approach in the second Test match. The 2023 WTC winners' duo of Nathan Lyon and Matthew Kuhnemann, who crushed the host's batting lineup in both innings of the first Test, will once again be a key on turning tracks. The win in this Test match for them will ensure a series sweep and establish their dominance as they head towards the WTC Final against strong Proteas in June.

On the flip side, Sri Lanka's challenge is to recollect their crushed team effort to put up a formidable performance after their embarrassing defeat on their home turf. Sri Lanka's batting faltered under pressure in the first Test match. The Lanka Lions need to find a way to counter Aussie spinners while ensuring their bowling attack makes early inroads. With another match slated to take place, the Islanders will be hoping to stage their comeback and prove they can stand up to a formidable Australian unit.
