Power Play scores:
Australian openers had a really good T20 series and they will look to carry forward that momentum in the ODI series as well. The visitors can put somewhere in the range of 65-70 runs on board in the first six overs.

The host might score 60-65 runs during the power play overs.

Australian side has a bunch of solid power hitters in their line-up, and they can post 80-85 runs during the ten overs. While, Sri Lanka also have Dasun Shanaka and Wanindu Hasaranga who hold the ability to create big impact, and if they managed to do as per their calibre, so Sri Lanka might put 40-45 runs on board during the death overs.
Overall scores:
Australian players are in good form and we expect them to score somewhere in the range of 290-300 if they batted first, while Sri Lanka might put 270-280 runs on board.
