David Warner revealed that his team always expects turning wickets when they play against Sri Lanka and it will be good for his side heading into the Test series. The visitors lost the One Day International (ODI) series against Sri Lanka and will now gear up to play the Test series against them.

Australia was beaten by Sri Lanka in the One Day International series for the first time since 1992. The hosts Sri Lanka triumphed against Australia which came as a shock to the Australian team as they have dominated in this format in Sri Lanka. After being down by 3-1 in the five-match series, Australia will look for a consolation win in the final match.
