Bowler: Nuwan Pradeep. England: 10-212(rr 4.51) 46.6 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. 46.5 1 Nuwan Pradeep to Ben Stokes. Half volley, down leg side on the front foot flick, to deep mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Mendis. 46.4 . Nuwan Pradeep to Ben Stokes. Full toss, off stump on the front foot driving, to deep extra cover for no runs, fielded by Fernando. 46.3 4 FOUR! Nuwan Pradeep to Ben Stokes. Length ball, to leg moves in front Slog, well timed past fine leg for 4 runs. Steps across his stumps, a huge swing to leg, and he gets it away off the inner half of the bat past short fine leg. 46.2 4 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. 46.1 . Nuwan Pradeep to Ben Stokes. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to long on for no runs, fielded by Perera.

Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control over long on for 6 runs. Bang! Right in the slot for Stokes, and he launches this deep into the crowd. Big swing, and a pure connection. Lovely. In over# 45 Runs : 2 Bowler: Lasith Malinga Wickets : 0 Over 45. 2 runs. Bowler: Lasith Malinga. England: 9-188(rr 4.18) 44.6 1 Lasith Malinga to Ben Stokes.

Length ball, to leg on the front foot flick, in the air uncontrolled to deep mid wicket for no runs, fielded by Mendis. So close to the catch being taken!

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. 43.3 . Isuru Udana to Jofra Archer.

A professional job from England done there. Excellent with the ball, and razor sharp in the field too. Contributions throughout the team, and they have restricted the total to a very chasable one. Sri Lanka weren't at their best. Angelo Mathews the only man to stick it out and grind some runs for his side. They need some early wickets to get the nerves going in the England dressing room. The hosts are in command at the halfway mark. 49.5 . Jofra Archer to Angelo Mathews. Short, outside off stump ducked Leave, Left to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Buttler. 49.4 2 Jofra Archer to Angelo Mathews.

Leg cutter length ball, middle stump on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. That's in the slot from Archer.

That's how you bowl to the tailenders. Two accurate bouncers, followed by a mean yorker that tailed into leg. Malinga walked outside his leg stump to expose the wickets, and couldn't dig it out. 48.2 . Mark Wood to Lasith Malinga. Short, outside off stump backing away pulling, hit body to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Buttler. 48.1 . Mark Wood to Lasith Malinga.

Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to mid on, by Root. Got him this time. The short ball working for Wood. Too much pace for Udana, who flaps at the ball, and mis-hits it to mid on for a simple grab. Sri Lanka are in danger of not completing their fifty overs. 46.3 4 FOUR! Mark Wood to Isuru Udana. Back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, top edge in the air uncontrolled past third man for 4 runs. Not sure how that's gone down there. Udana swings hard, aiming over mid wicket, but the ball flies off the edge and skips away to the third man boundary. 46.2 1 Mark Wood to Angelo Mathews. Leg cutter length ball, down leg side backing away working, hit pad to short leg for 1 run, fielded by Wood. 46.1 1 Mark Wood to Isuru Udana.

Short, outside off stump backing away cutting, in the air uncontrolled to third man, by Rashid. A third catch taken down at third man today. Thisara wildly swings and was never in control of this. The ball loops down to Adil Rashid, who takes a smart catch tumbling forward. Three for Jofra. 45.3 1 Jofra Archer to Angelo Mathews. Half volley, outside off stump backing away driving, to deep mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Bairstow. 45.2 1 Jofra Archer to Thisara Perera.

Leg cutter short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, mis-timed to mid on, by Root. Excellent grab. England have been superb in the field today.

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. 46.5 1 Nuwan Pradeep to Ben Stokes.

This could go down to the wire! 32.2 4 FOUR! Lasith Malinga to Jos Buttler. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed past deep backward square leg for 4 runs.

 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.

 .
 Jofra Archer to Angelo Mathews. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, missed to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Buttler. A professional job from England done there. Excellent with the ball, and razor sharp in the field too. Contributions throughout the team, and they have restricted the total to a very chasable one. Sri Lanka weren't at their best. Angelo Mathews the only man to stick it out and grind some runs for his side. They need some early wickets to get the nerves going in the England dressing room. The hosts are in command at the halfway mark.

 SIX! Jofra Archer to Angelo Mathews. Leg cutter length ball, middle stump on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. That's in the slot from Archer. Mathews clears the front leg, and pumps it over the legside for six. Nice strike.

Too much pace for Udana, who flaps at the ball, and mis-hits it to mid on for a simple grab. Sri Lanka are in danger of not completing their fifty overs.

 OUT! Caught. Mark Wood to Avishka Fernando. Short, outside off stump on the back foot cutting, in the air uncontrolled to third man, by Rashid. Oh dear, what has Fernando done? He was playing so nicely, and just gives his wicket away. Bumper from Wood, the Sri Lankan arches the back, and tries to ramp it over third man, but doesn't get enough on it. Lifted straight down the throat of the man down there, and Rashid makes no mistake.

 Start of Sri Lanka Innings. Welcome to Match 27 of the World Cup, where a bright and sunny Leeds welcomes the hosts, England, and Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka have won the toss and elected to bat first. There has not been many close contests or upsets so far in this tournament. England will be the heavy favourites going into this one, but Sri Lanka at their best could pull off the victory. The top four are starting to break away from the rest, and that will only continue if England grab another two points. Hopefully there will be high drama, and good quality cricket throughout the day.

 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.

 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!

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?
