Australian fast bowler Mitchell Johnson said he relished the slow wicket on which he set up Australia's victory in the first ODI against Sri Lanka.<br /><br />The left-arm paceman finished with a career-best 6-31 in his 100th one-dayer as Australia restricted Sri Lanka to 191 before racing to a seven-wicket win on Wednesday night. "You know it's always going to be a challenge in these conditions. It's always hot, the wickets are always pretty flat and slow," Johnson, 29, said after the day-night encounter. <br /><br />"You get yourself up for these challenges. I felt pretty calm. It was my hundredth game which was pretty exciting."
