OUT! Caught. Mark Wood to Chamika Karunaratne. Length ball, outside off stump backing away driving, thick edge in the air uncontrolled to third man, caught by Hales. Wood has his third. That brings the innings to a close. Sri Lanka started brilliantly in the powerplay, but the England bowlers fought their way back nicely to restrict them to a below-par total of 141. Can England chase this down against a good Lankan spin attack? Join us for the chase in a while.
