David Warner Century Puts Australia on top

Australia vs Srilanka cb series: David Warner got a superb 100 off just 111 balls and was leading the Australian charge. Shane Watson and Dan Christian fell cheaply leaving Australia at 223/3 in the 39th over. David Warner and Matthew Wade gave Australia their best start of the tournament as they set out to post a big total in the first final against Sri Lanka at the Gabba. After Michael Clarke chose to bat the Australians reached 1 for 148 at the halfway point, with Warner on 74 and Shane Watson on 5, and despite the loss of Wade for 64 it was still the perfect platform on which to build a hefty score.
