England beat Sri Lanka to win a rain-affected third one-day international by seven wickets yesterday and will take a 2-0 series lead with two games left.

Bairstow has supposedly went over on his ankle playing football and is a doubt for tomorrow.

Sri Lanka’s highest ever total v England. A good chance for the England batsmen to try and get a big chase. Without Morgan too but currently 4-2.

 

 

Jonny Bairstow has been ruled out of England's first Test with Sri Lanka following his ankle injury playing football a few weeks back.

Joe Root hits his 15th Test ton and Rory Burns scores his maiden fifty on day 3 of England's second Test against Sri Lanka.

England are 2-0 ahead with one test to play against Sri Lanka. 38 wickets out of 40 fell to spin bowling in the second test which is a record for any test match.

 

Sri Lanka don't have a strong team at the moment but it's never easy winning a test series away from home.

Fast bowler James Anderson has been rested for England's third Test against Sri Lanka and replaced by Stuart Broad.

 

Jonny Bairstow also returns in place of injured all-rounder Sam Curran and is listed to bat at number three with Ben Foakes remaining as wicketkeeper.

 

R Ashwin has been ruled out of the Boxing Day Test. India to confirm their squad shortly.

For the third straight year, Virat Kohli has scored 2500-plus runs in international cricket.
