    Billings c Hasaranga b Chameera 3 (Eng 80-4)

    A very good catch! England are in a spot of trouble.

    Sam Billings tries to drive, but the ball gets a little big on him, and it catches the top of his bat, and Wanindu Hasaranga takes a superb catch, diving forward and low at backward point.

    England are into the all-rounders. They still need 106 to win.

    This clip is 75 seconds long.

    I'd recommend spending at least 225 seconds watching it.

    Target 186

    Sam Billings gets off the mark with a pull for one.

    He looked good in the ODIs against Australia last summer, he'll be hoping to see England home here.

    Here's how Liam Livingstone got out.

    England could settle in and knock the ball around, but Morgan wants them to be dominant. It's opened the door just a little bit for Sri Lanka.

    Target 186

    Sam Billings shoulders his arms to his first delivery.

    This is another opportunity for him.

    The length he bowled, knowing Morgan was trying to charge, made it awkward. It got up nicely and nipped back a little bit.

    Morgan c Perera b Chameera 6 (Eng 74-3)

    Got him! Are England in trouble?

    It's more good bowling from Dushmantha Chameera, who has been the bright spark of this tour for Sri Lanka.

    He cramps a charging Eoin Morgan for room, and the England skipper heathers a thin edge behind.

    Tim Robinson took an age to raise the finger, but he did eventually.

    Chameera has been Sri Lanka's stand-out player. He's got pace and a bit of movement.

    Target 186

    Rooooott!

    Lovely balance and placement from the England Test skipper sees him pick up four through mid-wicket.

  11. Eng 69-2published at 9 overs

    Target 186

    Eoin Morgan has played a couple of lovely drives so far, but he's played out mid-off both times.

    He then picks up his first boundary with what I can only describe as a quite horrid edged drag through mid-wicket.

    Cricket, eh.

    I thought Fernando offered quite a bit in the T20s. If he can maintain some consistency alongside Chameera, it's the makings of an attack.

    Target 186

    Just a wide from Binura Fernando's fourth over.

    He's bowled pretty well so far for his 1-23.

  14. Eng 63-2published at 7 overs

    Target 186

    The skipper will keep the strike too.

    This is an opportunity for him to find some form too. In nine games for England in 2021, he's only scored 67 runs at an average of 11.17.

  15. Eng 61-2published at 6.3 overs

    Target 186

    Eoin Morgan is off the mark with a nurdle off his hip.

    James Anderson
    England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    That ball was maybe just a bit too close to Bairstow for that shot.

    It was fun while it lasted.

  18. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 6 overs

    Bairstow b Fernando 43 (Eng 59-2)

    Dragged on!

    Jonny Bairstow tries to drive away, but gets a thick inside edge onto leg stump. He longingly stares at his bat in disappointment.

    Sri Lanka have taken two wickets in two overs, and got some control back.

    Jonny Bairstow has found the boundary seven times already, here are two of them.

    Target 186

    Joe Root is the new batter. He's playing his 150th ODI today, don't forget.
