Australia vs Sri Lanka, 2nd Test – Sri
Lanka tour of Australia, 2019
1-5 February 2019, 5:00 am IST
Manuka Oval, Canberra
Venue:
Ø The Manuka Oval in Australia’s capital city of Canberra will
become just the 11th Test venue in the nation’s history when the hosts take on
Sri Lanka in the second and final Test of the series, starting on Friday.
Ø The history in 50-over cricket at the venue paints a similar
picture, with the average first innings score in 9 ODIs here being 310. But the
five-day format is an altogether different story, and it will be interesting to
see how the first Test at the venue plays out.
Preview
2018 was a very bad year for Australian
cricket with just three Test wins – its fewest in a calendar year since 1996.
In fact, the team won only 15 of 41 completed fixtures across all formats last
year.
Despite Australia’s poor run of form, it
was hardly a surprise to see Tim Paine’s side win the series opener at the
Gabba by a comprehensive margin of an innings and 40 runs, given Sri Lanka’s
woeful record Down Under.
The visitors are yet to win a Test match in
Australia, and the chances of that record changing at Canberra are slim.
Injuries have not helped their cause either with seamers Nuwan Pradeep, Lahiru
Kumara and Dushmantha Chameera out of action.
The hosts will start as strong favourites
yet again and the Australian batsmen will be especially keen to avoid the
unwanted record of going through a summer of three or more Tests without a
century for the first time since 1882-83.
