    Cheers Ffion.

    Kumar Sangakkara has just described Sri Lanka's chase so far as "interesting".

    That's one way of looking at it. It has been good to see the intent today, but have they gone too far the other way? We've seen all sorts of attempted ramps, scoops, flicks.

  3. SL 39-3published at 6 overs

    The swing and hope for the best tactic continues for Fernando. End of the powerplay, there's been lots of swinging but not many connections.

    Here's Callum Matthews to see us through to the end.

    A fine strike.

    SL 39-3published at 5.3 overs

    Oshada Fernando finally connects with one! Another slower ball from Jordan but this time the batter connects and hits it straight back past him for six.

  6. SL 33-3published at 5.1 overs

    Chris Jordan the new bowler. He starts with a slower ball that Fernando can do nothing with.

    I can't quite believe what I've seen there.

  8. SL 33-3published at 5 overs

    A very ambitious shot first ball from Dickwella. With his side three down in the powerplay, he goes for a lap-sweep type shot but can only get an edge out onto the off side.

    He tickles the next ball slightly more conventionally down to fine leg for four.

    Mendis c Bairstow b Willey 6

    He's been given out caught behind but Mendis reviewed it straight away.

    But there was a spike and he looks a bit confused. Six and out.

  10. 6 runs

    SL 29-2published at 4.3 overs

    Not a bad way to get off the mark! It was a full ball from David Willey and Kusal Mendis just clubs it straight down the ground.

    I feel like Fernando has got to try something different.

  12. SL 23-2published at 4.2 overs

    We've seen Fernando try and play a big shot pretty much every ball so far and it hasn't worked for him.

    He'll be relieved to have a few balls at the non-striker's end.

    A really well-deserved wicket for Chris Woakes - he has been brilliant. Livingstone has made that catch look really easy - he has made a lot of ground and taken it sliding on his backside low to the ground.

    Perera c Livingstone b Woakes 3

    A well-deserved wicket for Chris Woakes and a stunning catch from Liam Livingstone, he covered a lot of ground and makes a good slide to take it cleanly.

    It was a top edge from Kusal Perera and Sri Lanka are in trouble.

  15. Not outpublished at 3.3 overs

    His bat was just down in time, but it was close to being a rookie error from Fernando.

  16. Umpire reviewpublished at 16:36 British Summer Time 26 June 2021

    Moeen Ali completes a good bit of fielding at point and gets a direct hit. The umpires take it upstairs but nobody seemed too excited.

  17. SL 21-1published at 3.2 overs

    A great diving take from Jonny Bairstow behind the stumps as it's Perera's turn to take a wild hack and miss at a Chris Woakes delivery.

    Sri Lanka have got to play some shots - and the make the most of the powerplay. But if England get them three or four down then it's probably game over.

  19. SL 20-1published at 3 overs

    Sri Lanka just calm things down with a few twos - although one of them is a wild swipe over cover from Perera. It's been a bit of a frantic start.

  20. SL 14-1published at 2.1 overs

    Carnage for Sri Lanka as they attempt a risky single to gully but the throw from Liam Livingstone misses. It would've been out if he had hit.
