Pushed towards mid-on, and we're under way.

Sri Lanka's T20 kit is an absolutely solid 10/10, by the way.

I'd give England's a could do better. Here they come.

Meanwhile, New Zealand are on the brink of victory over India in the World Test Championship final. You can follow the closing stages here.

Sri Lanka are a side in transition. There are probably only one or two players that they know they will take to the T20 World Cup, so they're searching for the rest. I like what they're doing - they've got to make changes. Hopefully there will be new heroes popping up in England.

That experience in India earlier this year will hold England in good stead for the T20 World Cup if it goes ahead.

Sue Redfern will become the first female umpire to officiate a home England men's today.

The 43-year-old, who played six Tests and 15 ODIs for England between 1995 and 1999, replaces Alex Wharf as fourth umpire as the World Test Championship final between India and New Zealand went into a reserve day.

Redfern was an on-field umpire for England women's drawn Test against India at Bristol.

It's a chance to have a look at these players and for them to put their name in the hat for the T20 World Cup.

Sri Lanka captain Kusal Perera: "We have got six batsmen and some quality bowlers.

"We're not up to the mark as a one-day and T20 side, so the players are trying to get their form."

You can listen to the TMS crew using the player at the top of this page, with ball-by-ball commentary also available on 5 Live Sports Extra following the conclusion of the World Test Championship final.

This is the start of a hectic couple of days for England, as they play three T20s in four days against Sri Lanka.

That schedule includes back-to-back games today and tomorrow at Sophia Gardens, before they travel to Southampton two days later.

There's then three ODIs against Sri Lanka, followed by a white-ball series against Pakistan.

Basically, there's loads going off.

England captain Eoin Morgan: "We would have bowled first. Preparation has been good - it's been short, sharp. We're looking forward to some good cricket."

On team selection: "We'll experiment a bit more during this series. Between now and the end of the summer we'll chop and change a little bit to try and balance the squad.

"Guys are quite good in home conditions. A mantra of ours is try and learn and grow as much as we can, but we never try to compromise the result of the game."

Chris Woakes will play his first international T20 since 2015 tonight!

No mucking about, here's the news from the middle...
