<p>Mendis bemused the Australian batsman to finish with six for 16 off four overs, including a maiden. He is the first bowler to take six wickets in the shortest form of the game. <br /><br />Australia did well to contain Sri Lanka to a total of 157-9 but were restricted themselves to 149-9 after Shane Watson had got them off to a flying start with 57 off 24 balls including five sixes and six fours. <br /><br />Watson and David Warner (16) put on 71 for the first wicket before an inspired piece of fielding by Angelo Mathews on the boundary line to dismiss Warner started a sensational Australian collapse.<br /><br />Mathews took the catch and, before stepping over the boundary, threw the ball to Mahela Jayawardene 30 metres away to give Mendis the first of his six wickets. Sri Lanka's innings was held together by a superb knock of 86 off 64 balls with one six and 12 fours by Jayawardene. <br /><br />Score Board<br />SRI LANKA<br />Jayawardene c Hussey b Lee 86 <br />Dilshan lbw Lee 4 <br />Chandimal c and b Smith 13 <br />T Perera c Watson b Johnson 9 <br />Sangakkara c White b Hastings 24 <br />J Mendis b Hastings 1 <br />A Mathews b Hastings 5 <br />D Perera c Smith b O'Keefe 0 <br />Kulasekara b Lee 4 <br />Herath (not out) 1 <br />A Mendis (not out) 0 <br />Extras (LB-2, NB-1, W-7) 10 <br />Total (for 9 wkts, 20 overs) 157 <br />Fall of wickets: 1-23, 2-66, 3-75, 4-121, 5-123, 6-131, 7-137, 8-150, 9-152<br />Bowling: Lee 4-0-39-3, O'Keefe 4-0-33-1, Johnson 4-0-35-1, Smith 3-0-27-1, Hussey 1-0-7-0, Hastings 4-0-14-3<br />AUSTRALIA<br />Watson c T Perera b A Mendis 57 <br />Warner c J’dene b A Mendis 16 <br />D Hussey b Herath 2 <br />Marsh st Sangakkara b A Mendis 0 <br />White b T Perera 39 <br />Smith b A Mendis 12 <br />Haddin b A Mendis 0 <br />Johnson b A Mendis 7 <br />O'Keefe (run out) 1 <br />Hastings (not out) 3 <br />Lee (not out) 4 <br />Extras (B-4, LB-2, NB-1, W-1) 8 <br />Total: (for 9 wkts, 20 overs) 149 <br />Fall of wickets: 1-71, 2-73, 3-73, 4-75, 5-113, 6-113, 7-129, 8-131, 9-144<br />Bowling: Kulasekara 3-0-26-0, T Perera 2-0-21-1, D Perera 3-0-26-0, Herath 4-0-31-1, A Mendis 4-1-16-6, J Mendis 4-0-23-0.</p>
