Sri Lanka reach 94-1 before bad light ends play early
Smith's brilliant 67 off 50 balls helps England recover from 82-7
Lawrence out for aggressive 35 off as many balls
Sri Lanka bowled out for 263 - a 62-run deficit
Atkinson lbw b Rathnayake 1 (Eng 82-7)
They're not reviewing this one!
Rathnayake strikes Atkinson high on the pad, right in front of the stumps. Ball tracking has it hitting the top of middle and leg.
Time for Olly Stone - four first-class fifties to his name, small crumbs of comfort.
Vishwa Fernando continues his spell, with Jamie Smith guiding him away to point for a single.
England lead by 143.

If I was the skipper, I'd push everyone back.
Thick edge, goes for four!
Smith goes hard at Rathnayake's opening delivery and the ball flies away for the first four of his innings.

That was a silly review, it was such an obvious one.
Simon Mann
BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds
All the drama, shout for lbw and a missed runout.
Pitching about a mile outside leg.
Atkinson almost got himself run out prior to that review, he set off for the leg bye and had to hurry back after Jamie Smith said no.
Eng 73-6
Sri Lanka decide they made as well have a crack at another wicket with a hopeful lbw review against Gus Atkinson.
Looks like it's going down leg...
Here are the six wickets to fall so far in this innings. Look away now, England fans...
Time for Milan Rathnayake, replacing Lahiru Kumara.
He beats the bat of Jamie Smith first up, with the ball just missing off stump, before drawing a thick inside edge with his final delivery, just jagging away past the wicket.
Smith takes the only run of the over.

Please get Mo to have a rethink.

Things like this in Test cricket, couldn't they have just taken drinks whilst Chandimal was on the floor?
There seems to be more and more stop-starting.
Vishwa Fernando sends down five dot balls to Jamie Smith, before the England keeper grabs a single with a push down to long leg.
It took Chandimal until the middle of the over to make it back to the dressing room.
Time for drinks.
According to Cricviz's expected goals-style metric, England should be 46-2 right now...

I never ever thought I would write this but England deserve to lose this, just for their sheer arrogance and lack of respect for Sri Lanka. Hopefully,they might learn a lesson.
Robin in Coventry
Substitute Nishan Madushka comes on and takes up position behind the stumps for Sri Lanka.
Atkinson hits the final ball of the over into the covers - no run.
Meanwhile Chandimal is still gingerly making his way up the plentiful steps of The Oval's pavilion - will he be able to bat in the second innings?

Sri Lanka have changed wicketkeepers in all three Tests this summer.

Dinesh Chandimal has been in the wars this series.
Kumara's first ball to Atkinson flies off down the leg side and Dinesh Chandimal collects with a big dive to his left.
He seems to have injured himself and after a long spell on the deck is now hobbling off holding his back.
