  1. SL 106-2

    Avishka Fernando follows-up reaching fifty with a swept four off Sam Curran.

    That brings up Sri Lanka's hundred.

    The players will take drinks.

  2. 50 runs

    50 for Avishka Fernando

    SL 99-2

    There's the fifty!

    Avishka Fernando clips Sam Curran's first ball of the day through mid-wicket for two, reaching the landmark from 49 balls.

  3. SL 97-2

    Avishka Fernando can't bring up his fifty in this Liam Dawson in this over.

    He only faces two of the six deliveries, taking a single off one of them.

    Sri Lanka are actually ahead of where England were. They're giving it a good crack, but there's still a long long way to go.

  5. How's stat?!

    Brilliant pull shot from Avishka Fernando, who has excelled against the short ball in his ODI career. He averages 44 and strikes at 144 against it - his highest figures for any length.

  6. SL 91-2

    A couple more fours for Avishka Fernando off Jamie Overton.

    He hits an 88mph delivery through mid-wicket and then hits the final ball of the over fine.

    He's now two runs from his fifty.

  7. SL 85-2

    A fourth four for Pavan Rathnayake, lumping Liam Dawson through mid-wicket.

    I think England had less runs at this stage in the innings but when you're chasing like this you can't think like that. You can't leave that much to do at that stage of the game. They just need to stay in touching distance.

  9. SL 78-2

    Jamie Overton tightens up with a couple of dot balls to end his over.

    There's nothing that annoys Jamie Overton more than a top edge over the keeper for six.

  11. 6 runs

    SL 78-2

    Well, there's a bit of intent, Steven.

    Pavan Rathnayake isn't really in control of either of these shots, but he pulls Jamie Overton for a one-bounce four through mid-wicket and then top-edges a six behind square.

    That brings up the fifty partnership at a run a ball.

  12. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    It's going to be frustrating if there's no real intent shown. Sri Lanka have been a touch timid since the change bowlers have come on and you can't have that because it just makes the rest of the innings impossible.

  13. Henry Moeran
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    The required rate is such that the pressure to go at 9.4 an over is just going to be so so difficult for Sri Lanka.

  14. SL 67-2

    Changes at both ends for England as they introduce spin with Liam Dawson.

    Four singles off this one.

  15. SL 63-2

    Jamie Overton into the attack as we come out of the powerplay.

    He concedes three runs from his first six balls.

  16. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    60 for two in 10 overs wouldn't be a bad score ordinarily but not in the face of chasing 430. Sri Lanka just have to keep the intensity up. The danger with that is they'll lose wickets.

    Overton finds that jump out of the surface and either of these batters are going to have to take risks to score runs at some stage.

  17. Listen to Stumped on BBC Sounds

    You can now listen to the latest episode of the Stumped podcast on BBC Sounds.

    This week, the team debate if the nationality of a coach matters after New Zealander Stephen Fleming - suggested HIS England job should have gone to someone from England.

    They also hear from the man behind an "eco friendly" cricket ground in Spain that hopes to host the IPL.

  18. SL 60-2

    Another four for Avishka Fernando, driving Josh Tongue through the covers.

    He moves to 32 at a run a ball.

    Meanwhile that's the end of the powerplay - Sri Lanka need 9.25 runs an over from here.

  19. 6 runs

    SL 55-2

    Fifty up with a six!

    Avishka Fernando slams Josh Tongue's first ball over fine leg - 44 of Sri Lanka's 55 runs have come from boundaries.

    If Sri Lanka lose this they need a lot of things to go in their favour if they're going to make it to the final so they need to go for it.
