    Joe Root has taken a very important wicket there, just as Sri Lanka were starting to look dangerous.

    A good opportunity here for England to start turning the screw.

  3. SL 179-3published at 27 overs

    Dasun Shanaka is next up for Sri Lanka - he can wallop a ball when he's in the mood.

    It is the thinnest of edges. Kusal Mendis will be frustrated with that.

    Yes, the Sri Lankan captain is gone!

    Match-winner Shadab Khan survived against England on Sunday having not felt a tiny edge prior to being struck on the pad, this time Kusal senses the knick and walks.

    He goes for 89, and an 80-run partnership comes to an end.

    Kusal Mendis has gloved this down the leg-side.

    He tried to style it out, but he has punched his bat in anger. A wonderful take from Jordan Cox.

    Joe Root into the attack... and has he made a breakthrough?

    Kusal Mendis might have under-edged the ball sweeping, with Jordan Cox collecting down the leg side.

    Nothing from the umpire, but the Sri Lanka captain is walking off, punching his bat on the way to the dressing room.

    It feels like Sri Lanka are making a bit of a charge for it. They just need to stay up with the asking rate.

    England just have to hang in there, and think about how they're going to take a wicket.

  9. SL 177-2published at 26 overs

    Kusal Mendis starts Gus Atkinson's over by turning the ball through backward square for four.

    Three more singles come from the rest of the over.

    Another run-heavy over for Sri Lanka, with Pavan Rathnayake slapping Will Jacks through the covers for four.

    Kusal Mendis gets in on the action, walloping the penultimate delivery of the over down the ground and over the sight screen for six.

    One more single sees Kusal retain the strike.

    That's the half-way point in the innings and for the first time Sri Lanka are ahead of England at the end of the over - Harry Brook's side were 163-1 at this stage.

    Around about now.

    I wish Gus Atkinson would use his bouncer more because he would get that steep bounce. He has got to do it, he has got the pace and bounce for it.

    That stroke again and it is effortless really from Pavan Rathnayake.

    Well, that's a way to pick-up the rate!

    Pavan Rathnayake meets Gus Atkinson's delivery will a lovely clean shot, clearing the cover boundary comfortably.

  19. SL 134-2published at 22 overs

    Some great work from Henry Crocombe in the deep.

    Sprinting after the ball at deep mid-wicket, he throws out an arm and slaps the bouncing ball backwards before his momentum takes him over the rope.

    Pavan Rathnayake takes two runs.
