46.6 Nuwan Pradeep to Mark Wood

w

OUT! Caught. Nuwan Pradeep to Mark Wood. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, outside edge to wicketkeeper, by Perera. Tiny nick, and Sri Lanka win! One ball to bowl at Mark Wood, and Pradeep gets it spot on. Lovely line and length, Wood hangs the bat out, and Perera gobbles up the edge to seal things.What a game of cricket that was. High drama till the very end. England were extremely poor with the bat, apart from Joe Root and Ben Stokes, but huge credit must go to Sri Lanka. No one expected them to pull off this victory. Lasith Malinga stood up for his team and took four important wickets, and that gave them the belief to get those two points. Remarkable win, which certainly blows things wide open in this tournament.Hopefully the games will continue like that for the rest of the competition! Tomorrow we have two World Cup games on. India take on Afghanistan, and West Indies take on New Zealand. Should be another good day for cricket.

FOUR! Nuwan Pradeep to Ben Stokes. Full toss, outside off stump on the front foot flick, well timed past long on for 4 runs. Low full toss, Stokes whips this away powerfully, and long on cannot get round to cut it off. A few more boundaries might make this interesting.

w

OUT! Caught. Isuru Udana to Jofra Archer. Slower length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on, by Perera. That should settle things. Still another 47 runs to get for England and they just have one wicket remaining. Out the back of the hand from Udana, Jofra's eyes light up, and he attempts to bludgeon it out the ground. Off the bottom end of the bat, and a simple take for long on.

w

OUT! Caught. Dhananjaya de Silva to Adil Rashid. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the back foot pushing, outside edge to wicketkeeper, by Perera. Three for Dhananjaya! Sri Lanka are delighted! It's similar to the Woakes wicket. Rashid was playing for turn, didn't get it, and there's a thin edge through to the Perera. A more routine take for the keeper, who mops up well. The visitors just need two more wickets!

w

OUT! Caught. Dhananjaya de Silva to Chris Woakes. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the back foot cutting, outside edge to wicketkeeper, by Perera. Nicked and gone! It's a wonderful take by the keeper standing up. Woakes flashes outside his off stump, not much turn, and it deflects off the willow into the Kusal's hands. Sri Lanka on top now?

FOUR! Nuwan Pradeep to Ben Stokes. Length ball, down leg side on the back foot defending, outside edge past third man for 4 runs. Edged, but no catchers in place, and the ball runs away to the third man boundary. That's the fifty up for Stokes. Brilliant knock from him today. If he's there till the end, England win.

OUT! Caught. Dhananjaya de Silva to Moeen Ali. Off break length ball, outside off stump down the track driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long off, by Tillakaratna. But the pressure goes right back onto England! Adrenaline high for Moeen, and he cannot help himself. Dances down to hit it out the park again, but doesn't get a good connection. Miscued down to long off, and Udana swallows it up.
