The hat-trick Bruce Reid, Anthony Stuart, Brett Lee, Daniel Christian, Clint McKay, James Faulkner. That is the list of Australians to have taken an ODI hat-trick, six names in total after Faulkner joined the group in this match. And he did so across two overs, his wickets coming from the last ball of the 46th over and the first two deliveries of the 48th over. First was Kusal Perera, who was lbw trying to reverse-sweep a cutter. Then it was Angelo Mathews, who drilled one down the ground and was caught just inside the boundary by Moises Henriques. And finally Thisara Perera was bowled while backing away and trying to cut. Three ODI hat-tricks were taken last year, but this was the first for 2016.The sitter It was the sittingest sitter that ever sat. In the 42nd over of Sri Lankas innings, Kusal Perera got a top edge off Moises Henriques that lobbed up and straight down into the hands of Adam Zampa at short third man. And then down further, out of the hands of Adam Zampa at short third man and onto the ground. It was such an easy chance that it was genuinely baffling that Zampa had managed to drop it. Perhaps, having finished his own 10 overs and claimed 3 for 42 earlier, his concentration had waned. It was a costly enough miss - Perera was on 29 and went on to make 54.The long walk homeDinesh Chandimal is a batsman who puts store in personal milestones. He celebrates his own with abandon, and his team-mates with even more abandon. So when he was out on 48, going for a Sri Lankan record of six fifties in a row, his reaction was endearingly predictable. Chandimal dropped his shoulders. Chandimal dropped his head. Dragging his feet and the bat behind him, he trudged sullenly through the outfield, like a man who had been roughed up and robbed at the bus halt, and was left with no option but to begin walking home - a brass band playing a sombre tune in the background.The openerNathan Lyon did not play in the first ODI but was rapidly into the action in this second match. After Mitchell Starc delivered the first over of the game, Lyon sent down the second and immediately gained some noticeable turn. For some teams it is nothing out of the ordinary to open with a spinner in an ODI, but it is a rarity for Australia. In fact, only once before have Australia used the tactic in the first innings of an ODI - when Mark Waugh shared the new ball against South Africa at the SCG on Australia Day, 1998.

AMSTERDAM -- Kenyan-born teenager Yasemin Can clinched a long-distance double for Turkey at the European Championships on Saturday, dominating the 5,000 meters with spectacular running from the front, much as she had done during the 10,000 three days earlier.Can, 19, was only cleared to run for Turkey in March and made the most of this with a devastating kick after two kilometers -- and never letting up -- to win in a slow 15 minutes, 18.15 seconds, beating defending champion Meraf Bahta of Sweden by 2.39 seconds. She had won the 10,000 in much the same style.Can qualified for both Olympic events but said the daring front-running tactics would change when she faced the best in the world, mostly from her continent of birth.I am not going to run alone there. I will follow someone, Can said.It was the fourth gold for Turkey at the championships, and all won by athletes who were foreign-born. With Russia not competing because of a doping ban, the medal table was bound to look different. But few would have expected Turkey to do this well, especially after finishing the Euros two years ago with a single bronze.In the pole vault, Greeces Ekaterini Stefanidi wiped the championship record of Yelena Isinbayeva off the books by 1 centimeter, clearing 4.81 meters when gold was already assured. The Russian is still trying to make it to the Rio games under a special exemption.ddddddddddddAnouk Vetter gave the Netherlands a third gold medal at the championships with victory in the heptathlon.Vetter dominated the two-day, seven-event competition and won with a national record of 6,626 points, breaking the old mark of heptathlete turned sprinter Dafne Schippers.

Schippers skipped the first round of the relays because of a tight hamstring and is still unsure to run Sundays final. Schippers is a favorite for Olympic gold in the 200 and also stands a good chance in the 100 next month and does not want to endanger her fitness now.Can was not the only 19-year-old to win Saturday. German Max Hess did likewise in the triple jump with a Europe-leading effort of 17.20 meters. Hess already proved his credentials when he took silver at the world indoors in March.In the biggest upset of the evening, double Olympic javelin champion Barbora Spotakova failed to successfully defend her European title and finished fifth, well behind winner Tatsiana Khaladovich, who won with a Belarussian record of 66.34 meters.
