1st ODI: Australia v Sri Lanka at Melbourne - Jan 11, 2013
Australia 305/5 (50 ov); Sri Lanka 198 (40 ov)
Australia won by 107 runs

[Deep Dey]

Sri Lanka may be forced to field their fourth wicketkeeper of the tour in the second ODI in Adelaide on Sunday, after Dinesh Chandimal hurt his hamstring during the loss to Australia in Melbourne. The uncapped gloveman Kushal Perera is part of the one-day squad and could make his debut on Sunday, depending on how Chandimal recovers during the short break between games.

[Deep Dey]

Six of the top seven scorers (including the top five) on ODI debut for Australia have been left-handers.
This is only the third time that Australia have fielded three debutants in the top three of the batting order. The previous two occasions came in the first ever ODI game and in 1977-78 during the Packer years.


The 107-run win is Australia's largest against Sri Lanka at the MCG and their seventh-largest against Sri Lanka (in terms of runs) overall. It is also the seventh-largest margin of victory for Australia against any team in ODIs at the venue.


The 140-run stand between George Bailey and Hughes is the fourth-highest third-wicket stand for Australia against Sri Lanka. It is also the highest third-wicket stand in ODIs at the MCG.


David Hussey's strike rate of 176.47 is the third-highest for a fifty-plus score for an Australian batsman in ODIs against Sri Lanka and the fourth-highest overall at the MCG (fifty-plus scores).


Clint McKay's 4 for 33 is his fifth haul of four or more wickets in ODIs. Three of those have come in matches against Sri Lanka.

[Deep Dey]

Phil Hughes became the eighth batsman overall and the first Australian to score a century on ODI debut. Three of the ODI debut centuries have come in matches against Sri Lanka.
After 802 matches and 199 players Phillip Hughes became the first Australian to make an ODI ton on debut


Hughes also became the first batsman to score a century on ODI debut and a duck on Test debut. His Test debut came against South Africa in Johannesburg in 2009.
