26.6 Dhananjaya de Silva to Eoin Morgan

4

FOUR! Dhananjaya de Silva to Eoin Morgan. Off break back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Morgan pounces on one slightly back of a length as the clouds begin to burst. The grounstaff leap into action to try and cover the playing area. As it stands England are comfortably ahead of the DLS par score, but let's hope this isn't the end of the action for today. Sri Lanka will be really regretting that no-ball from a few overs ago, that could have really changed the complexion of the match.

1 nb

No ball Dhananjaya de Silva to Joe Root. Off break full toss, down leg side on the front foot sweeping, top edge in the air uncontrolled to short fine leg for 1 run, fielded by Malinga. Oh dear - all sorts going on here, most of it pretty ordinary cricket. First of all it's a filthy full toss that should be spanked to the boundary, but somehow Root tamely top edges it to short fine leg. Sri Lanka think they have their man but it's called a no-ball, not for height but for too few fielders up in the circle. Awful stuff all round.

FOUR! Akila Dananjaya to Eoin Morgan. Off break back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Just a touch short and it sits up nicely begging to be hit. Morgan has come to the middle with lots of energy and it's put England well ahead of the DLS par score as the clouds begin to roll across the ground.

SIX! Amila Aponso to Eoin Morgan. Stock length ball, off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control over long off for 6 runs. This is just a gentle chip but Morgan has timed the pants off it so the ball sails all the way for six. Morgan's form has been outstanding so far this tour and there's no sign of it stopping today.

FOUR! Akila Dananjaya to Eoin Morgan. Off break length ball, to leg on the front foot reverse sweeping, well timed past deep backward point for 4 runs. Morgan's rubbery wrists come to the fore in his trademark shot, fetching the ball from around leg stump and swatting it venomously behind point. Quality stuff from the England skipper.
