    Bit of width from Udana and Chris Jordan nails a four through extra cover from his first ball.

  3. Eng 171-6published at 19.3 overs

    A couple of big swipes from Curran but he finds the fielders and gets two each time.

  4. Eng 167-6published at 19.1 overs

    Sam Curran picks up four through midwicket. There were cries for a catch but it just went under the fielder as he dived forward.

    Dushmantha Chameera finishes with figures of 4-17. A fine performance.

    Sam Curran is on strike to Isuru Udana for the final over.

    Dushmantha Chameera has been by far and away the pick of the bowlers. He's got that ability to know when to bowl the yorker and when to bowl the slower ball and he's just picked the right moment.

    England will be disappointed with this. They were in a great position to make 200 at one point.

    Moeen c Hasaranga b Chameera 7

    It's Chameera again! England are falling apart at the back end of this innings. It's another big shot and another catch on the boundary, the time deep mid-wicket.

  8. wicket

    Eng 162-5published at 18.3 overs

    Malan c Shanaka b Chameera 76

    Malan will be disappointed there, but it was a great innings. This has been an impressive comeback from Chameera and Sri Lanka. He went for the big shot but didn't get hold of it, finding long-off.

  9. Eng 162-4published at 18.2 overs

    Malan attempts a scoop but gets himself into a bit of a tangle. Chameera did well there and followed him all the way.

    There is no matter way to slow the run-rate down than by taking wickets and that's what Sri Lanka have done.

  11. Eng 161-4published at 18 overs

    Ali 7, Malan 74

    Just the two overs to go. 200 looks ambitious now and Malan will be wanting a bit more of the strike.

  12. Eng 158-4published at 17.4 overs

    Shanaka bowls a wide down the leg side, followed by a short ball that Moeen can't get any bat on. He responds with an upper-cut for four.

  13. Eng 152-4published at 17.1 overs

    Time for Moeen Ali! He gets off the mark first ball with a quick single.

    It was a good catch. He went for the yorker but didn't get it right, and it was a ball that Eoin Morgan would have expected to put away if he had faced a few more balls.

    Morgan c Gunathilaka b Chameera 1

    Another one gone!

    It was a short stay at the crease for Morgan, who tried to flick this one over fine leg but finds the fielder. Gunathilaka does well very close to the boundary rope at deep square leg.

  16. Eng 149-3published at 16.4 overs

    The batters crossed so Malan takes a single and Morgan gets off the mark with a lofty drive that just evades the cover fielder. Looked like a slower ball - Morgan is lucky there.

    That was a well-judged catch because it was up in the air for a long time. It was a hack from Sam Billings.

  18. wicket

    Eng 148-3published at 16.2 overs

    Billings c Shanaka b Chameera 2

    Billings fails to get going. It's a good catch from Shanaka on the mid-wicket boundary. It went very high but it was a bit of a slog from Sam Billings that he gets a top edge on.

    I think England will finish on or around the 200 mark, but they could even just pip that.

    The continued questioning of Dawid Malan's place in this team, given his record, is mind boggling. Surely the biggest question is when he gets a other crack in the Test side?
