Colombo: Sri Lanka beat Australia by 163 runs in the final test in Colombo on Wednesday to complete a 3-0 sweep in the three-match series.
Australia suffered their fifth whitewash in Tests.
Chasing 324 for victory, Australia were all out for 160 half-an-hour before the tea break, succumbing to their third successive defeat against the hosts.
David Warner top-scored for Australia with a fluent 68. Rangana Herath (7-64) was the pick of the Sri Lankan bowlers, finishing with a 13-wicket match haul.
Openers David Warner and Shaun Marsh gave Australia some hope of a consolation win with a brisk start in the morning session but once their partnership was broken, the visitors suffered a rapid collapse.
off-spinner Dilruwan Perera struck just before lunch to send Marsh, who scored a century in the century in the first innings in Colombo, back to the pavilion on 23.
Herath soon took over from his fellow spinner to dismiss Australian skipper Steve Smith and senior batsman Adam Vogues in the same over.
Warner, who had batted well for his 68 with six fours and a six, was Perera's second big strike.
Herath, who had claimed six wickets in the first innings, then ran through the Australian middle and lower order as the visitors' batsmen had no answer to his left-arm spin.
The 38-year-old took the final wicket of Nathan Lyon to trigger wild celebrations in the Sri Lankan camp.
Earlier Sri Lanka, who resumed on 312 for eight, declared their second innings on 347 for eight with overnight batsman Dhananjaya de Silva unbeaten on 65.
Playing in just his third Test, de Silva smashed 10 boundaries during his 74-ball knock, after scoring a century in the first innings.
Kaushal Silva's gritty 115 played a big part in Sri Lanka registering their first series sweep against a major side since gaining Test status in 1981.
Defiant centuries from Dinesh Chandimal and Dhananjaya de Silva ensured that the hosts get a decent first innings score of 355.
Rangana Herath is the Man of the Match and the Man of the Series
The teams face off in a five-match one-day series beginning on Sunday in Colombo.
