Test cricket LIVE: Australia suffer double blow as Head and Labuschagne removed early against Sri Lanka

The ‘Slug from Snug’, Beau Webster, takes a ripper of a catch at a very close second slip/gully position off the bowling of Matt Kuhnemann. Went very quickly and straight into the Tasmanian’s big hands. Lahiru Kumara is gone for a 26-ball stay at the crease. He made two runs.

It was a handy 33-run last wicket partnership from the home side, which sees them post a respectable total.

Australia will be pretty pleased with their bowling performance but will know they’ll need at least a 100-run first innings lead given this pitch could break up in the fourth innings.

Starc (3-37 off 16), Kuhnemann (3-63 off 33.4 overs) and Lyon (3-96 off 34 overs) all snared three wickets apiece.

Sri Lanka are all out 257
