Coach delayed from Somerset this morning, so only just getting into Hammersmith now. If both teams could take it slowly for the first hour that would great, ta.

Here we go then, England are on the outfield ahead of time and are ready to get going.
They need a fast start and based on the way he was warming up just now, it looks like Josh Hull might be into the action quite soon.
Gus Atkinson has removed his cap and jumper, though, so it seems he's going to bowl the first over of the day.

The England batting line up all relies on Joe Root. He's that glue and their rock. The rest of the batting line up are almost getting away with it. Root didn't arrive this week and it's exposed them.

Sri Lanka need to work for longer periods and with high intensity if they are to get those 125 runs.
England have been pretty generous at times in this match, Ros, but I'm not sure that generosity extends to actually wanting Sri Lanka to win...

I would like to see Sri Lanka win this one after all their sportsmanship throughout the Tests. I would imagine the England team would also.

The one thing England have this morning is a chance. They do usually find a way of getting back into games and they have to focus on getting the ball in the right area.
This England side have made a habit of pulling off the unexpected in the last couple of years but it will take something special for them to get out of this one.
The good news for them is that conditions look ideal for bowling with leaden skies overhead and the floodlights on already.
A couple of early wickets and you just never know...
Image source, Getty ImagesEngland women's skipper Kate Cross enjoyed the perfect start to captaincy on Saturday, with 6-30 and an unbeaten 38 to guide a youthful team to a four-wicket win in the opening ODI v Ireland.
They'll be looking to wrap up a series win in Belfast today with Cross winning the toss and choosing to bat first.
Tammy Beaumont and Emma Lamb form an experienced opening partnership, while there is an international debut for off-spinner Georgia Davis and Issy Wong returns to the side. We'll provide updates in this live throughout the game, which starts at 10:45 BST, and you can follow the scorecard here.
After a strong start to day three with the ball, England got themselves into real trouble with the bat as they slumped to 82-7.
Jamie Smith's counter-attacking knock helped the hosts set a somewhat competitive target for Sri Lanka.
However, Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis took the attack to the bowlers to take the tourists to 94-1 at stumps.
Sounds entertaining? Well, you can watch the best of that action here...
It may only be day four at the Oval but we're all set for what will almost certainly be the last day of this Test summer.
England still have the chance to make this their first 100% summer for 20 years, they need nine wickets for that, but Sri Lanka are in control as it stands.
The tourists need another 125 runs for their first Test win over England since a dramatic victory at Headingley in 2014 that left Jimmy Anderson in tears.
Will we have that kind of drama again today or will Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis continue where they left off last evening and help Sri Lanka romp to a famous win?
