Five for Sam, four for WIlley. DW doing well with the old ball again.

England need 92 off 25 with 8 in hand. We used to assume England would make a mess of any situation, but no longer, even without Gentle Ben and JB2.

I always like to see Woakes down the order though, just in case.

Fifties for Mr. Roy, Honest Joe and Captain Morgan. Pretty disciplined run chase.

England being clinical against a fairly weak Sri Lanka.

Not sure what the point of this series is, TBH, but you can't do more than beat what is put in front of you, and England are doing so professionally.

England continue to rotate the bowlers with Woakes back in for Wood. Willey seems to having a run in the side .

Typically poor start for SL.

The weather has the last word on the series with the last innings wiped out by rain.

The slight interest in these series has been further undermined. New squad.

Ben Stokes (Durham, captain), Jake Ball (Nottinghamshire), Danny Briggs (Warwickshire), Brydon Carse (Durham), Zak Crawley (Kent), Ben Duckett (Nottinghamshire), Lewis Gregory (Somerset), Tom Helm (Middlesex), Will Jacks (Surrey), Dan Lawrence (Essex), Saqib Mahmood (Lancashire), Dawid Malan (Yorkshire), Craig Overton (Somerset), Matt Parkinson (Lancashire), David Payne (Gloucestershire), Phil Salt (Sussex), John Simpson (Middlesex), James Vince (Hampshire).

James Vince is back! What times...

Not sure if it's fair, but it seems that he won't be back as long as Morgan is captain. Wonder how long that will be - he is nearly 35 now. Might be a good time to bow out after the T20 world cup, so his successor can bed in for the next 50 over edition.

Pakistan 22-3.

Must be a few debuts. Salt and Carse at least.

Simpson, Gregory and Crawley.

Gregory has played T20Is, and Crawley Tests, of course.

26-4. This might be England's C team, save Stokes. Maybe touring sides are pre-beaten now, without warmups.
