Down the leg side from Broad, and we're under way!

Lahiru Thirimanne and Kusal Perera will open up for Sri Lanka, with Stuart Broad pawing at the ground at the other end.

Mr Storey: Following the cricket between baby feeds. Trying to get him interested in Test cricket from an early age!

Ben Lovett: I didn't even set an alarm, apparently my body clock is attuned with Test cricket

This is a terrible time to realise I'm running low on milk.

Michael Vaughan
Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

I'm looking forward to this. It was quite therapeutic driving into Manchester - there was nobody on the roads.

The one thing for Sri Lanka is the experience in their batting line-up - their bowling is inexperienced and I think that's where England can target this team.

I wonder if we'll see Jimmy Anderson give an interview today, a la Stuart Broad?

National anthem time in Galle.

Joe Root has had a particularly savage haircut to ring in 2021.

Andy Zaltzman
Test Match Special statistician

It's very early in my shed! But stats never sleep...!

Jeremy Hague: Eyes propped open, coffee made - here we go.... can’t wait.

Jonathan Agnew
BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match Special

We don't really know what's going to happen as we do this, but we're just going to have some fun. But we're just going to enjoy the cricket and try and put a smile on your faces.

Also, Rob Lewis, are you reading?!

Rob flew out to Sri Lanka before the coronavirus pandemic and has been in the country for 10 months after deciding to stay until the cricket resumed.

The game is being played behind closed doors but Rob will be able to watch from the ramparts which overlook the ground in Galle. He has, quite literally, got the best view of all.

England captain Joe Root: "We've got some good memories of playing here last time out."

On Dan Lawrence's England debut: "It's a really exciting day for him and a great opportunity."

Jack Leach is back!

I think I'm right in saying this is the first time Leach and Dom Bess have played a Test together?

Sri Lanka: Lahiru Thirimanne, Kusal Perera, Kusal Mendis, Dinesh Chandimal (capt), Angelo Mathews, Niroshan Dickwella (wk), Dasun Shanaka, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dilruwan Perera, Lasith Embuldeniya, Asitha Fernando.

England: Zak Crawley, Dom Sibley, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root (capt), Dan Lawrence, Jos Buttler (wk), Sam Curran, Dom Bess, Stuart Broad, Mark Wood, Jack Leach.

Umpires: Kumar Dharmasena, Ruchira Palliyaguruge; TV umpire: Lyndon Hannibal.

Sri Lanka captain Dinesh Chandimal: "It looks a really good pitch and if we can put a total on the board and put them under pressure that would be great.

"The last couple of the days the weather has changed but there isn't that much moisture in the pitch and if we can play well in the first hour that would be great.

"Unfortunately Dimuth Karunaratne has got a hairline fracture on his left hand, and I've got the opportunity to captain this game and it's always special to do that and I'm looking forward to it."

Dan Lawrence makes his debut for England, as expected, and is slated to bat at five.

There's no Jimmy Anderson for the tourists, though, with Stuart Broad, Mark Wood and Sam Curran making up the three-man pace attack.

The stand-in skipper has won the toss, and the hosts will bat first.

The first thing to tell you is that Dinesh Chandimal will be throwing the coin for Sri Lanka.

Regular skipper Dimuth Karunaratne has been ruled out just this morning with a fractured thumb.
