Bashir to A Fernando
Wicket. OUT! Caught. Shoaib Bashir to Asitha Fernando. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot reverse sweeping, Gloved to silly point, caught by Smith. That's the end of the Sri Lanka innings. England lead by 62 runs. The hosts delivered an excellent bowling performance. Although the Sri Lankan skipper and Kamindu Mendis played brilliantly and kept their team in the driver's seat, they couldn't take the lead. The debutant bowler Josh Hull and Olly Stone each took three wickets. England will try to add a big total on the board. Let's hope. Do join us for the England innings shortly.
