Australia captain Michael Clarke is a doubt for the deciding game of the tri-series final against Sri Lanka.

The 30-year-old is to have a scan on a hamstring injury today after pulling up during Sri Lanka's eight-wicket win in Adelaide yesterday. Clarke looked to be struggling while scoring a century in his side's total of 271 for 6, which did not prove enough as Sri Lanka chased down their victory target to level the three-game series. Cricket Australia confirmed after the game it had called up George Bailey as cover for Clarke.
