A different 50 for Joe Root. He normally rattles along at a run a ball or even faster. But he's got a task to steer England home here and it's important to adapt to conditions.

Jeevan Mendis doesn't really rip the leg-break. It's full and flat. It's odd - you'd think he'd bowl it faster when it's that flat.
I'd be more than happy to look like any form of Olivier Giroud.
Ben Stokes has read the script, batting at statuesque pace so far. Five singles off the over and that's Joe Root's 50!

Cheers Jack. Are England going to make a mess of this? I wasn't expecting to come back in to the box in this situation.
England are about 25 runs shy of the Sri Lanka score at the same stage. PLENTY of batting to come though.
Despite nearly starting a new War of the Roses over bread nomenclature earlier, Tom Rostance is being allowed back on the live text.
He'll steer you through to the end of this one. Later.
Joe Root (England) has managed to record a score of 50+ in five of his last six ODI knocks for his country (including two centuries); the Yorkshireman had gone seven innings beforehand without one.
Root 47, Stokes 7
Joe Root deftly runs it down to third man for a single to move to 47.
Isuru Udana raps Ben Stokes high on the pads. Appeal from the bowler but nothing doing.
Going down leg. And high.

Sri Lanka have been mostly good in the field - it's noticeable how they've got their best fielders in the most important positions.
Need 145 runs from 26 overs
Commentator's curse as a fielder dives over a Joe Root back-foot punch down the ground to concede a single.
Tidy work from Dhananjaya de Silva again, just three from the over.

Sri Lanka's fielding has been spirited for a team we were told was demoralised.
Great hands.

You could sense the sigh of relief in the crowd with that boundary.
Ben Stokes has a boundary! Isuru Udana drags it down on leg stump and Stokes works it rounder the corner away from deep fine leg for four.
Bit of a pressure release that.

Four runs from this over. Racing away...
Ben Stokes drives a very full ball from Dhananjaya de Silva down to long off for a single to finally get off the mark.
