  1. England didn't have everything their own way today but some moments of individual brilliance, started by Buttler with the bat, will give them plenty of confidence heading into the knockout stages.

    That should be enough to get England through to the semi-finals.

    ENGLAND WIN BY 26 RUNS!

    Theekshana c Jordan b Moeen 2 (SL 137)

    That's a very good win for England, sealed as Theekshana lofts Moeen to Chris Jordan in the deep.

    England are all but through to the semi-finals. Sri Lanka are pretty much out.

  5. SL 137-9

    Target 164

    Maheesh Theekshana carves a couple through mid-wicket.

  6. SL 135-9

    Whoops.

    Moeen misfields in his follow through and Kumara snaffles a single.

  7. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on BBC Test Match Special

    It has worked out alright for England. But I do think it was a mistake that Chris Woakes finished that Tymal Mills over.

  8. SL 134-9

    Lahiru Kumara is the last man for Sri Lanka, and he rather hoicks at a dot ball first up.

  9. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on BBC Test Match Special

    Surely that is the end of Sri Lanka?

  10. wicket

    WICKET

    Karunaratne c Roy b Moeen 0 (SL 134-9)

    Walloped to Jason Roy at long-on!

  11. SL 134-8

    Dot ball first up.

  12. The penultimate over, and it'll be Moeen Ali to bowl it.

  13. Sri Lanka need 30 runs from 12 balls.

    That is a straightforward catch. He got plenty of it so he'll feel cruck about that.

  16. wicket

    WICKET

    Chameera c Malan b Jordan 4 (SL 134-8)

    And that, you'd think, is that.

    Dushmantha Chameera goes for a huge have into the leg side and ends up whacking it straight into Dawid Malan's mitts on the rope.

    Kevin Ticehurst: Buttler that is simply outrageous. Is there anything you can’t do right now?!

  18. SL 134-7

    That's four!

    It's about as convincing as a very unconvincing thing, as Dushmantha Chameera swings hard and sends a thick outside edge through a vacant slip region and into the boundary.

  19. SL 130-7

    Another dot as Chameera swings at fresh air.
