  2. Tom Banton moved onto a white-ball contract at Somerset earlier this year, Dan, so it'd be quite a reverse in trajectory.

    He made Somerset's record score in the first match of last season, hitting 344 against Worcestershire from number five.

    However he didn't score all that many runs in the rest of the season.

    Is Banton playing himself into contention to be the Test opener as well here? He has all the shots and is able to handle fast bowling, which are two things Emilio Gay hasn't been able to show yet.

    England well, they've got their sights on 300 plus. How quickly the game has changed.

    Dilshan Madushanka returns to the attack.

    He goes for six runs, with Harry Brook smacking his fifth four through backward point.

    The players will take drinks with Sri Lanka in the need of a breather - England have scored 67 runs in the last seven overs.

  6. How's stat?!

    Harry Brook v spin this series:

    • Fuller than 4 metres: 35 off 19, 184 strike rate

  7. Eng 169-2

    Four more on the reverse for Tom Banton!

    That's the century partnership for this pairing.

    Sachindu Colombage hasn't had the best time of it today - his first four overs have gone for 31.

    Tom Banton is becoming a good white-ball player for England. He has found his opening position.

    Chetan, Bolton

    Banton is a devastating opener in T20 for Somerset. But England have batted him at four or six. Now, in 50 overs, they have decided he is an opener and reaped the rewards!

    Another six for Tom Banton!

    A reverse-sweeps Sachindu Colombage's delivery just over the ropes at backward point.

    A cracking shot, which takes him into the nineties.

    Brilliant shot there - it just kept flying.

    Massive, massive hit.

  11. 6 runs

    Eng 157-2

    Having seen his captain take charge over the last passage of play, Tom Banton gets in on the action.

    Eshan Malinga drops the ball very short and Banton gets underneath it, hooking over backward square.

    It's not easy to change between formats, there are very few who can be successful at it. Harry Brook is one of those dominating all those formats.

    Harry Brook moves to his half-century with a single to backward point of Eshan Malinga.

    It comes off 49 deliveries - he was on 17 off 32 balls at the end of the 25th over.

  14. Eng 147-2

    Harry Brook clips Sachindu Colombage's last ball to mid-wicket for two.

    That moves him to 49 from 48 deliveries - he's scored 32 in the last four overs, while Tom Banton, who is on 77, has added seven runs in that period.

  15. Russel Arnold
    Ex-Sri Lanka all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special

    Brook is an incredible player, any opportunity he gets, he pounces on it.

    Up, up and away!

    Harry Brook drops to one knee and brings his bat round in a great sweeping arc to lift Sachindu Colombage's over long-on for six.

    You're not getting anything from banging a ball in half way short to Harry Brook, he's so strong there.

    First sight of seam for a while as Eshan Malinga re-enters the attack.

    He drops his first ball short and Harry Brook pulls it powerfully to the mid-wicket boundary for four.

    This is a good challenge for England. They have struggled in the past when it’s not a flat surface. They need to aim for 260 and bat the 50 overs. No point trying to smash 320 when it’s not on.

    Eddie, Corby

  20. Eng 130-2

    Sachindu Colombage concedes just a single off his first five deliveries, but his last ball is down the leg side and Tom Banton slog sweeps it over backward square for four.
