Steve Waugh makes back to back centuries against Sri Lanka during the 1995/96 series in Australia, just prior to the 1996 World Cup.

Australia won by 96 runs

Man of the Match and the Player of the series Brett Lee
"I am pretty pleased with the way the ball is coming out. Credit to all the bowlers. Sangakkara played a fantastic knock but we knew if we could get one wicket we could win the game."

Sri Lanka started the final day with hopes of staging a upset. 260 runs with 7 wickets in hand. They started off positively with Jayasuriya looking to attack but Lee drew a false stroke from him and that was the beginning of the end
