Wed Jan 29 05:30:00 UTC 2025: ## Australia Wins Warm-up Match, Kuhnemann Cleared for Sri Lanka Test
**COLOMBO, SRI LANKA –** Australia secured a five-wicket victory over Central Province in a warm-up match today, employing the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) method with three balls to spare. The win comes as a boost ahead of the upcoming Test series against Sri Lanka. Meanwhile, left-arm spinner Matthew Kuhnemann has been given the all-clear to travel to Sri Lanka despite a recent injury sustained in the Big Bash League (BBL). Captain Pat Cummins reportedly stated Kuhnemann should “tell everyone he’s fully fit,” suggesting confidence in the spinner’s recovery.
Sri Lanka, meanwhile, announced their squad for the Test series, including uncapped players Dinusha and Udara. The series promises to be a challenging one for Australia, who will need to address several key questions regarding their approach to Sri Lankan conditions.
