Australia should be winning this series, but they're not at the moment. Below we have all the information on how to watch Sri Lanka vs Australia 2nd ODI at Colombo from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters and live streams on TV screens, laptops, tablets and mobiles.

This game gives Champions Trophy-bound Australia the chance to draw the two-match series after losing the opening match at the same venue.

Such a loss seemed unlikely when Sri Lanka, batting first, were 135-8. But then Sri Lanka’s captain Charith Asalanka and Eshan Malinga added 79 for the ninth wicket, of which Malinga’s contribution was 1 not out off 26 balls. Asalanka scored 127 out of Sri Lanka's 214.

Australia fell a surprising 49 runs short making it the lowest score Sri Lanka have successfully defended against Australia in ODIs, and second-lowest by any team against Australia since 2005.

Sri Lanka, who have not qualified for the Champions Trophy, are a side in form having won eight of their past 12 games.

For Australia, this is the final game before the Champions Trophy, where they have been drawn in the same group as England, South Africa and Afghanistan. It will be also another chance to give some international experience to their second-string bowling attack, who will be their frontline bowlers in the Champions Trophy due to injuries to bowlers Cummins, Hazlewood and Starc, and all rounders Stoinis and Marsh.

Here's how to watch a Sri Lanka vs Australia 2nd ODI live stream wherever you are in the world including FREE streams.
