The hosts Sri Lanka will enter the contest after their 2-1 ODI and T20I series defeats to New Zealand away from home. However, they will look to spin a web around the Australian batting arsenal and hope to stitch a victory.

The Australians, on the other hand, come into the series, full of joy and confidence, after beating India 3-1 and also booking their finals ticket for the World Test Championship. The Aussies will be without the services of their full-time skipper Pat Cummins.
