Sri Lanka have beaten Scotland by 148 runs in their World Cup clash in Hobart.
Tillakaratne Dilshan and Kumar Sangakkara impressed for Sri Lanka with the bat by contributing with 104 and 124 runs respectively to help reach 363-9 after 50 overs.
Sangakkara managed to hit his fourth consecutive hundred in just four days, as Scotland faced an uphill struggle to claim their first win of the World Cup.
It was a poor start for the Scots as opener Kyle Coetzer was caught and bowled by Lasith Malinga for a duck, and Calum MacLeod followed 25 runs later when Nuwan Kulasekara dismissed him for 11.
Scotland were three wickets down when Matt Machan was taken out after hitting just 19 runs off 31 balls, but they fought back through Preston Mommsen and Freddie Coleman, who scored 60 and 70 runs respectively to keep the team in contention.
However, Sri Lanka's quality shone through as Sangakkara became the first person to claim 500 one-day international dismissals, and passed Adam Gilchrist's World Cup record of 54 dismissals.
Only five of Scotland's batting order reached double figures as they ended the match all out on 215 with seven overs remaining.
