While Australia avoided their lowest one-day score against Sri Lanka, 74 at Brisbane’s Gabba in 2013, it was easily their lowest one-day score in Sri Lanka, going under the 124 they made at the SSC Ground in Colombo in 1983.
Sri Lanka set up victory with a second century in as many matches when Kusal Mendis made 101 from 115 balls as his side scored 4-281 from their 50 overs after the home side won the toss and batted on a dry and unresponsive pitch.
Head was rested from the first match, while Maxwell had been ill. Marnus Labuschagne and Cooper Connelly were left out along with top-scorer for Australia in the first match, Alex Carey, who made way for fellow wicketkeeper Josh Inglis.
Set a challenging 282 to win, Australia were bowled out for just 107 in 24.2 overs on Friday to give Sri Lanka a 2-0 series sweep in a dreadful warm-up for the Champions Trophy beginning in Pakistan next week.
Sri Lanka have completed their first whitewash of Australia in a one-day series with a record-breaking 174-run victory at Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.
