    That's the lowest score that England have ever conceded when they've bowled the full 20 overs.

    As bad as Sri Lanka were, England were faultless with the ball and in the field.

    It's so important you keep your standards really high even when the opposition are not very strong. You still have to execute your skills. That's exactly what England have done here tonight.

  3. England need 112 to winpublished at 20 overs

    Chris Jordan responds with a dot ball, before Isuru Udana hits one up in the air to finish, but Jordan can't make up the ground to take the catch.

    Surely it's a matter of when, not if, for England?

    Hello! It's out the ground!

    Isuru Udana has now hit Chris Jordan into the river taff!

    Your tailenders don't have to look like proper batters, they just need to find you some runs.

  7. SL 101-7published at 19.1 overs

    Or at least he was...

    Isuru Udana gives himself some room and hits Chris Jordan's slower ball over mid-off for four more.

    Kusal Mendis is the only Sri Lanka batsman to have found the boundary so far tonight...

    This feels like nowhere enough against this England side with the batting they have. It feels like a big mismatch. There's been 50 dot balls in Sri Lanka's innings, they haven't rotated the strike. It's a lot of dots.

  10. SL 97-7published at 19 overs

    David Willey throws down a couple of leg side wides. Sri Lanka will take them however they come at the moment.

    Willey finishes figures of 0-17 from his four overs.

    Mark Wood was superb tonight.

    You just can't help but love him, too.

  12. Postpublished at 19:55 British Summer Time 24 June 2021

    David Willey, who only went for 10 off his first three overs earlier, is back on.

    This is an opportunity for him to impress.

    Theo: We should let SL bat twice. That would give England a decent target to chase.

    Matt: Difficult to watch, this. Sri Lanka look awful.

    I think the big problem for Sri Lanka's players is misreading England's variations. They are not picking it up and there is a lot of work to be done on their batting. England are showing at the moment they are a world-class side.

  15. SL 90-7published at 18 overs

    Just two off the over.

    What can Sri Lanka muster from the final two?

    You felt this job was done for England halfway through the powerplay. They just haven't taken their foot off the gas since then.

  17. wicket

    Shanaka c Willey b Jordan 8 (SL 90-7)

    Chris Jordan gets in on the act.

    Dasun Shanaka tries to go downtown but cloths it straight down the throat of David Willey at long-on.

    Can the tourists get to three figures?

    Adil Rashid is so valuable to this England team and Eoin Morgan has had the luxury of being to hold him back in this series so far because of how well his seamers have bowled up front.
