- Second ODI: Sri Lanka 241-9; England 244-2
- Sam Curran takes five international wickets for first time
Half-centuries from Jason Roy, Eoin Morgan and Joe Root powered England to another one-sided success against Sri Lanka, their eight-wicket win a fifth successive white-ball canter.
It also wrapped up victory in their three-match ODI series with a game to spare, and having prevailed in all three Twenty20 matches the side now heads to Bristol for Sunday’s final fixture in search of a two-format whitewash against thoroughly downhearted opponents.
