Runs are coming thick and fast in Abu Dhabi, with Australia’s 50 up in only 4.2 overs as they set about chasing Sri Lanka’s 154/6. A golden opportunity to dent the opposition early tumbled into Lanka’s basket but Kusal Perera grassed a top edge to reprieve Warner on 18. The left-hander, who has been out of touch in recent times, is making the islanders pay for the fluffed chance as he races to 32 with the help of five blazing boundaries.
Solid start from Warner and Finch. The 50 is up in the fifth over.
