    Hello! Ben Stokes clips a full, straight one away for a massive six!

    Malinga 10-1-43-4

    Ben Stokes turns down a couple of singles, just seeing off the end of Lasith Malinga, who ends with marvellous figures.

    Has he bowled Sri Lanka to a win?

    A really tough chance. He just got his fingertips to it but yorked himself trying to take it.

    Woweee! Ben Stokes flicks Malinga away and Kusal Mendis grabs it right on the turf - but it spills out.

    So nearly game over.

    Ben Stokes is practising his golf swing, waiting for one in his arc.

    Funny thing with England is no matter how confident we are going into an innings we always find a way to shock people. Good or bad.

    Target 233

    Masterful from Lasith Malinga as he chucks in a Yorker which is right on the line which would make it a wide. Unplayable.

    Again - but this time it is wide.

    England need 46 from 33 balls.

    To be honest the idea of England being rightfully favourites as hosts of a World Cup in any sport doesn't really sit right with our national psyche does it?

    People can shut up about how bad England are. We have been the best team in the world and we lose one game and everyone says we're terrible.

    England need 47 from 36 balls

    Four overs left. One wicket left.

    And now still nearly 50 needed. England's last two can't just hang in there now they need to score too!

    Ed Blythman: Our batsman have no brains. They’re so deluded and have no sense of time. We will never win a WC with this mentality.

    Benj: Totally utterly complacent.

    47 needed from 37 balls

    At the interval Mark Wood said: "If it gets down to me then we're in trouble."

    The England number 11 is in, and England are in trouble.

    Not very sensible cricket from England. Give Ben Stokes the strike!

    Sri Lanka are nearly there now. Another England batsman caught on the boundary. Archer couldn't resist it but didn't get enough on the slower ball.

  17. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 43.4 overs

    Archer c Perera b Udana 3 (Eng 186-9)

    He couldn't resist! The slower ball is whacked back to long on by Jofra Archer but he doesn't get anywhere near enough on it and it's straight to the man, who puuches it gleefully...

    Kohli/Smith/Kane would all anchor a low chase like this and get their side over the line. That's why Root isn't in their league as truly world class.

    There's a reset of the field after every ball now. Fine margins. Jofra Archer drives straight to a man.

    England need 47 from 40.

  20. Eng 186-8published at 43.2 overs

    Wide surely? No! Udana floats one outside Ben Stokes' off stump but it's inside the guideline.

    Stokes then punches a straight drive for one.
