The surface for the second Test in Galle appears substantially drier than the track used for the first match, which Australia won by a massive margin

Australia are not yet a great team but completing a series sweep in Sri Lanka would push them closer, according to spin bowler Nathan Lyon.

The Sri Lanka vs Australia 2nd Test match will start at 10:00am IST on Thursday with the toss taking place at 9:30am IST. The 2nd Test match will be telecast on the Sony Sports Network in India and streamed on the SonyLIV app (paid subscription).

They hold every available bilateral Test trophy as well as the World Test Championship crown and have qualified for this year’s final.

Australian spinner Nathan Lyon asserts that despite recent successes, the team still has key milestones to achieve to be considered truly great. Ahead of the Test against Sri Lanka, Lyon emphasizes the importance of ruthlessness and securing victories in India and an Ashes series win away from home.
