Joe Root has scored 88 runs so far with some form of sweep shot.
He's now on the third highest score by a visiting batsman in Sri Lanka, overtaking Brian Lara's 221.
The highest is Chris Gayle's 333 in Galle in 2010.
Lead by 276
Joe Root gets a single off the first ball of Lasith Embuldeniya's latest over before Stuart Broad sweeps a couple through deep backward square.
Lead by 271
A solid block from Stuart Broad ends the over.
Stuart Broad has a huge, gallumphing sweep first up and misses by a yard.
Absolutely cannot wait to see what sort of hilarity Stuart Broad has planned for his stint at number 11.

That is a Ronnie O'Sullivan shot - right off the cue end.

That went no distance at all - two feet up in the end. Mark Wood is smiling.
Wood c Dickwella b D Perera 2 (Eng 406-9)
Mark Wood's face is a picture. He's attempted a sweep, made an absolute meal of it and toe-ended the ball into the air, which has made it easy for Niroshan Dickwella to run round and take a simple catch.
England lead by 271.
What do you mean, you didn't set your alarm for 4.15am? Shame on you.
You've missed an action-packed morning in Galle, where England captain Joe Root - 168 overnight - cruised to his fourth Test double century amid a flurry of three wickets in two overs.
Jos Buttler fell for 30, Sam Curran was cleaned up first ball and Dom Bess did his best impersonation of a village cricketer when he was run out in a comical mix-up with Root.
Jack Leach didn't last long either, although, with England's lead currently worth 268, their wobble hardly matters.

Joe Root is struck on the pad by Shanaka but the lbw appeal is turned down, and Sri Lanka have no reviews left. I think it hit him outside the line.
Root celebrates with a glorious nudge off the pads for four.

Do you reckon Joe Root is thinking he wouldn't mind a little bit of red ink here?
It does miracles for the average.
Lead by 263
9:30 is admirable, Kev. I was in bed by 6 last night and woke up with my Kindle tucked under my head from where I'd fallen asleep reading it.
Mark Wood sees off his first few deliveries.

Feel a special “in it togetherness” with the England cricket fans getting up each day. Even been able to resemble a normal human making it to 9.30pm each night! Girlfriend and 3 kids only noticing some small levels of tiredness when I put the remote control in the fridge late yesterday.

Mark Wood has come out to join Joe Root which, actually, isn't the worst thing for England.

It's beginning to happen quickly for Sri Lanka.
Leach lbw D Perera 4 (Eng 398-8)
Hitting the top of middle stump!
Jack Leach went a little too deep in his crease as he tried to work it off his pads, and there was nowhere to go. Still, as a bowler, he'll have like the look of this pitch...

Perhaps height but it looked good from here.
High?
Simon Mann

It looked out.
