ENG vs SL Live Cricket Score

6.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Oh my word. What a catch from Harry Brook. Will Jacks drops his length short, just outside off. Pathum Nissanka opens his stance and decides to pull at it, but ends up hitting it flat toward the right of Harry Brook in the mid-wicket region. He locks his eyes on the ball, dives to his right and takes a sharp catch. Brook, on seeing Nissanka press back and set up for the pull, anticipated the shot and took a couple of steps to his right. That meant the ball came within his reach, and he did not have to stretch too far to complete the catch. Top stuff from the skipper of England. 52/3

2.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! A well-judged catch by Jos Buttler. Not easy with the amount of wind, but Buttler was cool as a cucumber. Baker goes into the deck and angles it in at the body of the right-hander. Udara swivels on the pull but fails to roll his wrists over the ball. A top edge is found, and it is skied a long way up towards short fine leg. Buttler, the man with the gloves, calls for it and runs over his left shoulder. He settles under the swirling ball and takes a safe catch. End of a 22-run opening stand. 22/1

4.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Kamil Mishara holes out! Jacks gives the ball a bit of air, on a good length, on off. Mishara puts on the dancing shoes, trying to hit it with the wind towards the leg side. He does not get to the pitch of the ball but still swings at it. Gets it right off the toe end of the blade, and it goes only far as long on, where Jamie Overton settles under it and gobbles it up. 39/2

10.3 OUT! CHARITH ASALANKA IS RUN OUT! There was no real excitement from England at first, with many believing Jacks had missed the chance. But as it turns out, he did enough, and that is a crushing blow for Sri Lanka. Speared in by flat and short, on middle. Mendis plays the late dab and as soon as the shot is played, Asalanka sets off for the run. He is almost halfway through before being sent back. He turns around and is late in doing so. Adil Rashid at short third is quick to get rid of the ball and throws it on the bounce towards the bowling end. Jacks gets beside the sticks to inflict the run out. The third umpire is called into action and although Jacks got the slightest of touches, the replays confirm that when the stumps light up, Asalanka was short of his ground despite the dive. 83/4

15.1 OUT! TAKEN! Jofra Archer strikes gold on his return to the attack. Archer steams in from around the wicket and digs it in short, on off. Mendis gets his hands high as he tries to take the short ball on. He does not quite go through with the shot completely and picks out the man at deep mid-wicket. With Mendis hitting into the wind, Will Jacks is a good 20-30 yards in off the ropes and he makes no mistake in completing the catch. 114/6

14 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Not the best of balls but Liam Dawson will take it. A bit of a drag down, near the tramline. Shanaka does not move his feet much and goes hard on the cut with his hands. The ball stays low to graze the underedge and Jos Buttler does really well to stay low and pouch it safely. Shanaka stands there in disbelief. Sri Lanka are now 107/5. 107/5

17.5 OUT! HIT WICKET! A bizarre dismissal. When it rains, it pours, quips Kumar Sangakkara, and that really sums up the Lankan innings. Pace taken off by Archer, on a good length. Hasaranga has a swipe across the line but he fails to pick the change of pace and is through his shot early, which results in him failing to make any connection. The follow-through of his bat goes ever so close to the stumps, and it ends up clipping the top of the woodwork when Wanindu sinks to a knee. 124/9

16.5 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Jamie Overton has his first wicket. It is the off-cutter by Overton, angled across off from over the wicket, on a length. Ratnayake hangs deep in the crease and clears his front leg. He has a big heave across the line with his body weight on the back foot. The ball catches an inside edge and deflects back onto the stumps. Sri Lanka are now 7 down for 119. 119/7

17.2 OUT! ESHAN MALINGA IS RUN OUT! Another one bites the dust. Angled in on a good length, on off. Malinga stays back and stabs it beside the strip on the off side before scampering through for a quick single. Archer can't get to the ball but Liam Dawson swoops in from a catching cover and picks the ball up cleanly. He opens up his body to be able to have a shy at the bowling end. He scores the direct hit with an underarm throw, with Eshan being well short. 120/8

18.5 OUT! TAKEN! Sonny Baker gets his second wicket and hammers the final nail into the coffin of the first innings. Sri Lanka have been bowled out for 124. Pitches it fuller, on the fourth stump. Dilshan Madushanka clears his front foot, trying to slog it across the line, but ends up getting the connection from the upper half of the bat. The ball loops up high toward mid off, where Harry Brook has to take a couple of steps to his front to scoop it near his chest. 124/10

2.3 OUT! STUMPED! The change to bring on Tharindu Ratnayake has worked out well for the visitors. He offers a bit more flight to the delivery and drifts in, down the leg side, pitching it on a good length. Aneurin Donald predetermines and skips down the track to slog it over mid-wicket, but it gets into the gap between bat and pad, and the keeper, Kamil Mishara, does the rest of the job. The ball nearly popped out of the mitts, but Mishara managed to hold onto it before breaking the stumps. England are 22/1, chasing 125. 22/1

8.5 OUT! HARRY BROOK IS RUN OUT! Good piece of work by Wanindu Hasaranga. Flatter trajectory yet again from Hasaranga, pitching it much fuller, on off and middle. Harry Brook jams it toward the leg side with soft hands to get a quick single, but Hasaranga seems ready as he swiftly charges on it, picks it up, and has a shy at the bowler's end on the turn. It hits the stumps directly, and Harry Brook is found short of the crease. 107/2
