1st T20I report: Australia defeated Sri Lanka by 20 runs in its first Twenty20 match since capturing the T20 World Cup last November in the United Arab Emirates.
Sri Lanka finished with 122 runs for eight wickets on Friday after Australia scored 149-9 after Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka won the toss and sent the home side in to bat.
Sri Lanka's required run total was adjusted under the Duckworth-Lewis system due to a short rain delay that reduced the visitors' overs to 19.
Josh Hazlewood led Australia with four wickets for 12 runs in his four overs while Adam Zampa took 3-18.
The teams play again on Sunday at the SCG in the second game of the five-match series.
“It was an unbelievable performance from our bowlers," Aaron Finch said.
Sri Lanka has not beaten Australia in T20 cricket since 2017.
