Ben Duckett | 40 | 47 | 4 | 0 | 85.10 |
c Lahiru Kumara b Prabath Jayasuriya
18.4 OUT! TAKEN! Prabath Jayasuriya strikes in his very first over! Introduction of spin has worked for the visitors and to be honest, this is another unforced error from the batter. This is floated, full and around middle and off, Ben Duckett changes his stance and goes for the expansive reverse sweep knowing that there is protection in the deep. He fails to get the connection right and the ball goes off the top edge towards deep point where Lahiru Kumara settles nicely and takes a good catch inches ahead of the ropes. Duckett got to a good start but throws away his wicket here! 82/3
|
|||||
Dan Lawrence | 9 | 22 | 2 | 0 | 40.90 |
c Nishan Madushka b Lahiru Kumara
6.5 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! The bowling change has worked for Sri Lanka! Lahiru Kumara just loves playing against England as we also saw in the 2023 ODI World Cup. He sets up the batter nicely here, goes a little bit wider and fuller this time, Dan Lawrence takes a couple of steps across and looks to push it away, but has to reach for it with his feet going nowhere. The ball takes the outside edge and Nishan Madushka makes absolutely no mistake behind the stumps. 33/1
|
|||||
Ollie Pope C | 1 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 10 |
c Dhananjaya de Silva b Asitha Fernando
9.2 OUT! TAKEN! Asitha Fernando strikes now! This is really a nothing shot from the English skipper but the Lankans won't mind that one bit. This one is banged into the pitch and around middle, Ollie Pope tries to pull it from the front foot, but the ball bounces a bit more than he expects. Pope gets cramped up and fails to transfer his weight correctly, ends up miscuing it high in the air, Dhananjaya de Silva from short-mid-wicket runs to his right, keeps his eyes on the ball, and pouches it safely. England two down now! 42/2
|
|||||
Joe Root | 143 | 206 | 18 | 0 | 69.41 |
c Pathum Nissanka b Milan Rathnayake
77.3 OUT! TAKEN! At last Joe Root is walking back, and the Lankans will be more relieved than happy here! Milan Rathnayake bowls on a length on off. Joe Root opens his stance and tries to reverse-scoop it over the third man region. But fails to execute the shot and the ball balloons towards the gully region and Nissanka makes no mistake to get that skier. Root started walking back as soon as he played that shot as he knew he was gone, but he is going back after a special knock of 143 runs. 308/7
|
|||||
Harry Brook | 33 | 45 | 5 | 0 | 73.33 |
lbw b Asitha Fernando
30.5 OUT! LBW! Asitha Fernando cries for the appeal and the Umpire raises his finger this time! Harry Brook opts for a review! Asitha Fernando comes from over the wicket and bowls fuller on off, shaping it in vigorously. Harry Brook looks to flick it but misses and wears it on the front pad. The review pops up and shows there's no bat involvement on Ultra Edge and the Ball Tracking turns yellow as the ball hits the stump. The umpire has given out and Harry Brook has to depart for a fine knock of 33 off 45 deliveries. Sri Lanka gets the important breakthrough as the change of ends from Fernando worked for them! 130/4
|
|||||
Jamie Smith Wk | 21 | 57 | 4 | 0 | 36.84 |
c Nishan Madushka b Milan Rathnayake
49 OUT! Edged and taken! Smith falls. Number five down. Smith did get off to a start but now falls. Rathnayake joins the wicket's column now. Fuller and outside off. The drive comes out. It is played away from the body. It goes off the outside edge and the keeper takes it. Into the bowling all rounders now are Lanka. England do not have the deep batting line up they normally do. 192/5
|
|||||
Chris Woakes | 6 | 27 | 1 | 0 | 22.22 |
c Asitha Fernando b Lahiru Kumara
59 OUT! IN THE AIR....GONE! The short-ball ploy has worked for Sri Lanka! Lahiru Kumara gets his second now. He bangs in a good bouncer, on middle, gets extra zip from the surface, Chris Woakes looks to pull but gets in an awkward positon and the ball gets big on him as well. As a result, it goes off the top edge and flies towards wide of fine leg, Asitha Fernando runs to his right, fumbles the first time, but thankfully for the visitors, keeps his eyes on the ball and grabs it on the second attempt. Woakes goes back wothouthc troubling the scorers much! 216/6
|
|||||
Gus Atkinson | 118 | 115 | 14 | 4 | 102.60 |
c Milan Rathnayake b Asitha Fernando
99.3 OUT! TAKEN! Excellent catch in the deep! That is some athletic stuff! The trails of bumpers have worked for Fernando. Bangs a bouncer on middle and leg. Gus Atkinson clears his front leg and looks to go for the big one but fails to find the elevation he wants. The ball loops towards the gap of deep mid-wicket and deep square leg, where Milan Rathnayake runs from the deep mid-wicket to his right and magnetizes himself towards the skier. He backtracks a bit and tumbles towards the boundary fence to get the catch safe into his pair of hands. The crowd is on its feet applauding the catch as well as the knock from Gus Atkinson. 420/9
|
|||||
Matthew Potts | 21 | 43 | 4 | 0 | 48.83 |
c Nishan Madushka b Asitha Fernando
93.3 OUT! Edged and taken! The bowling change works. Potts goes. Length and around off. This lands and moves away. Potts pokes at it. This goes off the outside edge and it is taken by the keeper. Much needed wicket for Lanka. Can they take the remaining quickly too. 393/8
|
|||||
Olly Stone | 15 | 31 | 1 | 0 | 48.38 |
c Kamindu Mendis b Asitha Fernando
102 OUT! CAUGHT! The protection in the deep leg has worked for Asitha Fernando and he gets his five-fer! Asitha Fernando once again scoots from 'round the wicket and bowls bouncer on leg, around the helmet of the batter. Olly Stone lost his eyesight on the ball at the very last moment and pulls it uppishly toward deep fine leg fielder. Kamindu Mendis adjusts himself towards the skier but catches it a bit uncomfortably. It seems he has a slight misjudgment to catch the skier but ends up picking it well. So English batters have posted 427 runs on the board to challenge Sri Lanka! 427/10

b Chris Woakes
6.2 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Chris Woakes draws first blood and deservingly so! This is not the best of the balls, but his discipline has rewarded him. This one is back of a length and just outside off, Nishan Madushka stays in his crease, hops up and tries to punch it away with his feet in the air, but only manages to get an inside edge that crashes onto the stumps. Another failure for Madushka! 18/1
|

Dimuth Karunaratne | 7 | 26 | 1 | 0 | 26.92 |
b Olly Stone
9.1 OUT! DRAGGED ON AGAIN! Would you believe it? England just about managed to sneak in this over before Lunch, and they have got a wicket out of it. Olly Stone is absolutely delighted and he gets a Test wicket after being out of the team for around three years. This is back of a length and just outside off, Dimuth Karunaratne just like his opening partner looks to cut it away but without much footwork, gets an inside edge back onto the stumps. Sri Lanka lose both the openers now! 32/2
|

Pathum Nissanka | 12 | 18 | 1 | 0 | 66.66 |
c Matthew Potts b Olly Stone
10 OUT! CAUGHT! Olly Stone gets another one in his second over! Olly Stone bowls on a good length and pitches it on leg, shaping it down the leg. Pathum Nissanka attempts for a flick but gets the connection on the inner edge. The ball zips to the left of leg slip. Matthew Potts barely moves and gets the catch, safely into his hands. Perfect set up from England and Pathum Nissanka has to depart now! 35/3
|
|||||
Angelo Mathews | 22 | 36 | 3 | 0 | 61.11 |
b Matthew Potts
20.1 OUT! TIMBER! That is a beauty! Yes, one can say, Mathews was rooted to his crease but not a lot he could do there. This is around a length, it lands around middle and off and then moves away. Mathews looks to defend but this sneaks past the outside edge and clips the top of off. Top nut to break a stand that was going along nicely. 83/4
|
|||||
Dinesh Chandimal | 23 | 33 | 3 | 0 | 69.69 |
c Dan Lawrence b Gus Atkinson
23.1 OUT! TAKEN! Gus Atkinson joins the party now! It going from bad to worse for Sri Lanka here. This one is full and on middle, angling in, Dinesh Chandimal takes the risk and goes for the flick shot, but fails to get it from the middle of the bat, rather it goes from the inside half of the bat and flies straight to backward square leg where Dan Lawrence takes a good catch. The Lankan batters just keep finding the fielders here. Chandimal goes back for 23. Milan Rathnayake comes out to the middle as next batter for Sri Lanka! 87/6
|
|||||
Dhananjaya de Silva C | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
c Harry Brook b Matthew Potts
20.4 OUT! TAKEN! Two in the over! Potts is on fire and England are all over Lanka here. They are five down and not even got to 100. Length and on middle. This lands and moves away. Dhananjaya looks to work it on the leg side but it goes off a leading edge to third slip where Harry Brook makes no mistake. A duck for the Lankan skipper. 83/5
|
|||||
Kamindu Mendis | 74 | 120 | 8 | 3 | 61.66 |
c Chris Woakes b Gus Atkinson
55.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Gus Atkinson gets the job done for England! Gus Atkinson once again fires a bumper outside off and once again Kamindu Mendis looks to slap it down the ground but miscues the shot. The ball hits the top of the of willow and loops towards mid off . Chris Woakes makes no mistake and takes a comfortable catch. Sri Lanka posted 196 on the board and trailed by 231 runs! 196/10

Milan Rathnayake | 19 | 14 | 4 | 0 | 135.71 |
c Jamie Smith b Chris Woakes
29 OUT! TAKEN! That is a fine catch. Another one bites the dust. Rathnayake's uncomfortable stay comes to an end! Length and around off. This lands and angles away. Rathnayake looks to defend but this goes off the outside edge, Smith dives to his left and takes it. 118/7
|
|||||
Prabath Jayasuriya | 8 | 46 | 0 | 0 | 17.39 |
b Shoaib Bashir
44 OUT! CASTLED! Shoaib Bashir gets the job done of breaking the partnership! Shoaib Bashir tempts Jayasuriya and he falls hard for it. Bashir drags his length back just outside off and spins it in towards the stumps. Prabath Jayasuriya comes down the track to heave it away but misses the connection on the inner edge and the ball finds the gate between his bat and pad to disturb the furniture. Sri Lanka is still a lot behind to avoid follow-on here! 153/8
|
|||||
Lahiru Kumara | 22 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
run out (Ollie Pope)
55 OUT! RUN OUT! England skipper stood up and broke the partnership! Back of a length down the leg. Kamindu Mendis tucks it towards the front of the square leg. Lahiru Kumara calls for a run but Mendis rejects the call a bit late. Lahiru Kumara is out of his non-striker's crease and is already tracking back but Ollie Pope gets enough time to catch a breath and have a shy directly towards the stump. Kumara dives but he is a few inches away from the line. Lahiru Kumara lost his wickets pretty cheaply when things were growing for Sri Lanka! 195/9

10.3 OUT! THAT IS BRILLIANT IN THE END! Sri Lanka have a wicket early! Just what they needed. This is length and outside off. A little bit of extra bounce. Duckett slashes with no foot movement. This flies off the outside edge towards gully. Nishan Madushka dives to his right but the ball pops out of his hand, Mathews at second slip is aware and he takes it. A well-deserved wicket for Lanka. 36/2

Ollie Pope C | 17 | 38 | 1 | 0 | 44.73 |
c Prabath Jayasuriya b Asitha Fernando
18.1 OUT! TAKEN! One of the most bizarre dismissals you will ever see! Sri Lanka goes with the short-ball ploy here with a packed leg side field. Fernando as expected bangs this into the pitch around middle, Ollie Pope is aware of the tactics and moves to the leg side to access the other side, gets on top of the bounce as well, but unfortunately for him, he picks up the only fielder on the off side at deep point. Prabath Jayasuriya makes absolutely no mistake. Pope's struggles continues in this series! 69/3

c Kamindu Mendis b Lahiru Kumara

Kamindu Mendis at deep square leg, runs to his right and takes it. Root walks off the field to a huge round of applause from everyone present in the crowd whether it being a rival fan or a Sri Lankan player. England have been bowled out for 251! 251/10

Harry Brook | 37 | 36 | 4 | 1 | 102.77 |
c Nishan Madushka b Prabath Jayasuriya
27.4 OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Prabath Jayasuriya opens his account now! Not the best of deliveries, but he gets the reward. This one is dragged down, on middle, Harry Brook's eye lit up and he rocks back to heave it away, but he loses his balance a bit and fails to generate the required power on that one, the ball goes in the air towards deep square leg where Nishan Madushka settles under it and pouches it safely. Brook goes back after a quick-fire 37! 127/4

lbw b Prabath Jayasuriya
37.1 OUT! LBW! A huge shout for appeal and the umpire raises his finger this time! Jamie Smith opts for a review now! Prabath Jayasuriya comes from 'over the wicket and pitches it just outside off, angling it in towards the stump. Jamie Smith gets down on his knee to sweep it away but misses on the inner edge and it thumps his lower pad. The review shows that there's no involvement with the bat and the Ball Tracking pops up three reds. The long and sturdy partnership of Smith and Root comes to an end! 171/5
|

Chris Woakes | 5 | 10 | 1 | 0 | 50 |
c Pathum Nissanka b Milan Rathnayake
40.5 OUT! TAKEN! Milan Rathnayake at last gets the result he has been seeking for so long! Milan Rathnayake scoots from 'over the wicket and bowls back of a length outside off, around the sixth stump. Chris Woakes opens his stance and slaps it hard to the cover region, but ends up hitting it straight to the fielder patroling the area. Pathum Nissanka doesn't have to move as the ball zips straight into him and he gets the catch safe into his hands. 196/6
|

Gus Atkinson | 14 | 12 | 2 | 0 | 116.66 |
c Lahiru Kumara b Asitha Fernando
44.4 OUT! Taken! Quite outrageous! Yes, he scored a ton in the first innings but that was brave. He goes for a reverse pull shot on this short one on the body. It goes off the top edge. Lahiru Kumara is standing at the third man region, who is very fine. Almost behind the keeper. He takes it. 221/7
|
|||||
Matthew Potts | 2 | 9 | 0 | 0 | 22.22 |
c Dinesh Chandimal b Asitha Fernando
47 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Matthew Potts has been strangled down the leg side and Asitha Fernando gets his man. This one lands just back of a length and at the body of the batter, Potts goes on to clip it away, but the ball passes really close to his gloves and through to the keeper where Dinesh Chandimal gobbles it up. A small inquiry about the catch, but the umpire is not interested. However, Dhananjaya de Silva takes the review after some discussions with his players and it turns out to be a great decision. UltraEdge shows a marginal spike when the ball passes the gloves and the on-field decision is overturned. Potts' short stay comes to an end! 227/8

Olly Stone | 7 | 16 | 1 | 0 | 43.75 |
c Pathum Nissanka b Lahiru Kumara
53 OUT! TAKEN! Is that it? No, It looks like Joe Root is staying and England have not declared yet. Lahiru Kumara bowls another good bumper, on middle and leg, Olly Stone tries to hook it away, but the ball gets big on him, it takes the top edge and flies toward the fine leg fence, Pathum Nissanka keeps his eyes on the ball, settles under it as it is wobbling in the air, takes a really good catch. Nine down for England now! 250/9

Gus Atkinson comes from 'over the wicket and bowls on a good length into the corridor of uncertainty. Nishan Madushka hangs back and looks to defend it down but it catches the outer edge of his willow and zips straight towards the first slip. Joe Root crouches a bit and gets the catch safe into his hands. 19/1

Olly Stone was testing the batter with the short ball, and he lands this short of a length as well, on leg, this one shoots up off the surface, Dimuth Karunaratne looks to glance it away, but realises this one has some extra bounce on it. He fails to get his hands out of the way in time as the ball goes off the glove to the keeper where Jamie Smith makes no mistake. Karunaratne played well for his half-century but has to go back to the hut now! 115/4

The leg slip is in place for him again, but Stone lands this one on a good length just around off, shoots up and nips away a shy bit, Pathum Nissanka gets stranded in his crease and tries to push at it with only his hands, gets a thick outside edge that goes straight into the bread basket of Joe Root at first slip.

Bashir goes around the wicket and floats this one up, full and around off, invites the batter to have a go at it, Angelo Mathews decides to take it on and tries to drive it on the up, but this one turns in a bit more than expected, and he ends up hitting it much straighter and aerially towards mid off, Chris Woakes runs to his left and pouches it safely. Credit goes to Harry Brook for calling this play just before this delivery, and Mathews finally runs out of patience here. 174/5
