Have your say on England men this winter

    Sri Lanka will chase 387 when they come back.

    That would be the fourth-highest successful chase in ODI history... but then they completed the second-highest chase when these two sides last met.

    To take you through the lunch break and the next passage of play, here's Ffion Wynne.

    A wicket to finish the England innings.

    Jordan Cox swings at Dilshan Madushanka's final delivery, toe-ending his shot as his gloves flies in off the handle.

    Sahan Arachchige runs in off the rope at long-off, comes in a little too far and ends up taking the catch above his head, doing well to hold on after falling heavily onto his back.

    England finish on 386, the highest ever score at the Gaddafi Stadium, beating the 375-3 Pakistan made against Zimbabwe in May 2015.

  3. 6 runs

    Eng 382-4published at 49.2 overs

    A six and a four for Jordan Cox off the first two balls of Dilshan Madushanka's final over.

    He lifts the ball over backward square and then moves a fair way across his stumps to send it through fine leg.

    Mathematically it is not off the table for Sri Lanka, but you would imagine so.

    This is where the change of ball helps the bowlers, as batters are swinging and not finding the middle of the bat because there is a little bit of lateral movement.

    Eshan Malinga becomes just the second Sri Lankan bowler to bring up their century... of runs conceded in an ODI.

    He and Nuwan Pradeep (106-0 v India, 2017) are the only two Sri Lankans with this unfortunate record.

  6. Eng 372-4published at 49 overs

    Not a bad over to finish from Eshan Malinga, bowling a few cutters to beat the big swings of Sam Curran and Jordan Cox to ensure just five runs are conceded from the penultimate effort of the innings.

    Not quite enough to stop him going into three figures though - he closes with 1-10 from his 10 overs.

    The 400 is off now, you would imagine. Sri Lanka have bowled well towards the back end. A couple of wickets at important stages.

    Two more singles end Asitha Fernando's bowling effort.

    Eng 365-4published at 47.4 overs

    Just about got enough on it.

    Sam Curran launches Asitha Fernando out to the mid-wicket ropes, where Pavan Rathnayake runs round to attempt a catch.

    He does get his hands on it, but is falling over the ropes and can't quite manage to palm the ball to the approaching long-on fielder.

    Six for Sam Curran.

    If they're offered full low tosses like that, England will continue to thrash it away to the boundary.

  11. Eng 356-4published at 47 overs

    A first four for Sam Curran, lumping Eshan Malinga's delivery back over the seamer's head.

    A full toss from Malinga, who has figures of 1-96 off nine overs.

    It's looking less likely now, but if Sri Lanka concede over 400 here, they will become only the second ODI side to ship 400 runs on five or more occasions.

    Only the West Indies have conceded over 400 six times.

    England have only conceded 400 once, last week against Sri Lanka.

  13. Eng 345-4published at 46 overs

    Four singles off the remaining four balls of Asitha Fernando's over.

    The Sri Lanka seamer has figures of 2-52, with one over remaining.

    Definitely the pick of the bowlers today, Asitha Fernando.

    Will Jacks has to reach for it, and he can only get an under edge onto the stumps.

    Will Jacks looks frustrated there. Sri Lanka are trying to fight back. However, it is such an imposing total.

    And now another chop-on for England.

    Will Jacks throws his hands at a full delivery from Asitha Fernando and the ball scuds off the bottom of his bat and onto the stumps.

    Here comes Sam Curran.

    For Sri Lanka, it is about not losing confidence and getting their heads down in the field. It is about taking confidence from that 400-plus run chase the other day.

    That was one of those where you go. How on earth has the fielder not got that? That is why long barriers should be banned. Pavan Rathnayake goes down on one knee, and gets himself in a muddle.

    In the last 15 balls, England have scored 35 runs, so they're going at the run-rate to get up to 400.

  17. Eng 341-3published at 45 overs

    Woops.

    Having already seen Will Jacks top-edge his first ball over the keeper for four, Pavan Rathnayake lets a simple pick-up break through his hands at mid-wicket.

    That's a second boundary for Jordan Cox.

    Jordan Cox adds his first four of the innings, expertly finding the gap between long-on and mid-wicket fielders.

    Consecutive fours for Will Jacks off Dasun Shanaka, drilling the seamer flat and hard down the ground and then beating two fielders on the square boundary.

    He's on 23 from 15 deliveries.

    I would have sent in Sam Curran...

    It's been a brilliant innings from Ben Duckett. A great opportunity for Jordan Cox to treat this like the back end of a T20 innings.

    He can go from ball one.
