run out (Sam Curran) 1.3 OUT! RUN OUT! That is the worst possible start for the visitors! There was never a run there. Gunathilaka was well short. On middle, Fernando looks to flick but he gets an inside edge onto the pads. It rolls on the wicket. They go for a run. Curran gets to the ball and kicks it onto the stumps at the keeper's end. The dive does not save the left-hander. England players are delighted. 6/1 25% DotBall 75% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Avishka Fernando	6	10	0	0	60
c Liam Livingstone b Sam Curran 3.3 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust and Curran has a wicket now! Sri Lanka in big trouble! This is short and on middle, Fernando looks to pull. He needed to get all of it as it is the bigger side of the ground. Does not time it well and Liam takes a good catch at deep square leg. 18/2 60% DotBall 40% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Kusal Perera	21	25	0	0	84
c Eoin Morgan b Adil Rashid 12.3 OUT! TAKEN! Captain Perera is out of here! He looks to play the reverse sweep, it is the googly on off. Comes slow off the surface. Perera is early in the shot, it goes off the toe-end and it is an easy catch for Morgan. Lanka slip further just as the momentum looked like shifting. 68/3 32% DotBall 68% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Kusal Mendis	39	39	3	1	100
c Jonny Bairstow b Mark Wood 13.2 OUT! TAKEN! That is a very good catch! It went very high and Mendis, who was starting to get a move on, falls at the wrong time for Lanka! On middle, it is shortish. Mendis goes for the pull but he gets a top edge. It goes high up in the air towards square leg. Bairstow goes after it and takes it nicely. 76/4 46.15% DotBall 53.85% Scoring Shots 9 Ball per Boundary
Niroshan Dickwella	3	3	0	0	100
c Eoin Morgan b Mark Wood 13.3 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust! Wood has two in two and it was a brilliant move to get him on. On off, Dickwella looks to play a lofted shot but it hits the upper part and it is an easy catch for Eoin Morgan at covers. Wood is on a hat-trick now. 76/5 33.33% DotBall 66.67% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Dasun Shanaka	8	14	0	0	57.14
c David Willey b Chris Jordan 17.4 OUT! CAUGHT! This is all going downhill for Sri Lanka. Dasun Shanaka was the last hope for the team, this is not a pretty sight for the away team. Jordon gets his first wicket of the game. Serves a full length ball, on off, Shanaka is tempted as it is in the slot. He gets under it and powers it towards long on. But he does not middle it and end up hitting it with the toe end of the bat. The ball does not get the distance as David Willey takes a simple catch at long on. 90/7 50% DotBall 50% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Wanindu Hasaranga	3	7	0	0	42.85
st Jonny Bairstow b Adil Rashid 16.4 OUT! STUMPED! Wanindu Hasaranga had to take the risk but it doesn't pay off. His short innings comes to an end. The Lankan side is folding like a pack of cards here. A loopy ball, on off, Rashid takes a little bit of the pace off it. Hasaranga dances down the track and looks to heave it away. He misses the ball completely, as it ends up in Jonny Bairstow mitts behind the stumps, as he takes the bails off in a flash giving no time to Wanindu Hasaranga to turn and make his way back in the crease. 87/6 57.14% DotBall 42.86% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary

Jason Roy	17	17	2	0	100
c Dasun Shanaka b Wanindu Hasaranga 6.3 OUT! TAKEN! Roy goes now! Not sure if this shot is actually needed and once again the new bowler strikes moments after coming on. Roy looks to go after the leggie. He comes down the track and looks to go over mid on. He does not time it and it is taken by the fielder there. England in a spot of bother now. 36/4 41.18% DotBall 58.82% Scoring Shots 8 Ball per Boundary
Jonny Bairstow		3	0	0	0
b Binura Fernando 1.2 OUT! TIMBER! A dream start for Sri Lanka, as Jonny Bairstow departs on a duck. Fernando finds the breakthrough on his second ball. An inswinger does the trick.Serves a length ball on off, coming back in, Bairstow looks to heave it away but misses. The ball finds the gap and goes through to disturb the stumps. The pitch is tricky out here and the bowlers can capitalise on it. 2/1 100% DotBall 0% Scoring Shots - Ball per Boundary
Dawid Malan	4	5	1	0	80
lbw b Dushmantha Chameera 2.3 OUT! LBW! THREE REDS AND MALAN IS A GONER! A wise decision by Kusal Perera to go for the review and it pays off. And this time Chameera gets himself on the wicket sheet. Fires in a full length delivery, on the pads. the balls stays low. Malan looks to flicks it but misses and gets rapped on the pads. There is a huge appeal for LBW but the umpire says no. Maybe, it is going down leg. The skipper takes the review with one second on the timer. The Ultra Edge shows that there is no bat involved. The Ball Tracker though shows three red and Malan has to depart. Two wickets in quick succession for Sri Lanka. 8/2 80% DotBall 20% Scoring Shots 5 Ball per Boundary
Eoin Morgan	11	9	2	0	122.22
c Wanindu Hasaranga b Isuru Udana 5.2 OUT! TAKEN! Morgan is now a goner and Udana strikes as soon as he comes into the attack! This is Morgan's strength but seen him be dismissed quite a few times like this. Short and outside off, Morgan cuts but straight to point who takes a sharp catch. Sri Lanka still in this one. 30/3 55.56% DotBall 44.44% Scoring Shots 4 Ball per Boundary
Sam Billings	24	29	2	0	82.75
b Wanindu Hasaranga 14.3 OUT! TIMBER! Wanindu Hasaranga kept bowling at the stumps and finally gets his man. An important breakthorugh for the Islanders as this partnership was growing. Tossed up, on off, Billings stays back and looks to cut it away, but misses and the ball goes onto disturb the stumps. Wanindu Hasaranga is delighted. 90/5 44.83% DotBall 55.17% Scoring Shots 14 Ball per Boundary
