Sri Lanka v England: men’s cricket tri-series one-day international – live

Nasser and Mark Wood are in the Sky studio in their autumnal quarter zips. “If you look at conditions in Pakistan they are very different to home series,” says Wood, “when people are in and out it is hard to get that consistency.”

“Adil Rashid would be very useful in the middle overs and at the end, he would probably have got through Haris Rauf last week,” says Nasser. “They obviously think these are one spinner pitches. I think the main issue is the allrounder, they have a spin bowling allrounder in Will Jacks, but not a seam bowling allrounder in these conditions. There is no pace – no Archer, no Wood – and Sam Curran is being smashed about – in those middle over they’re not getting wickets.”

Kusal Mendis calls correctly. “We hope to play a genuine match and will play 100 per cent to prepare for the final.” No changes for Sri Lanka.

Harry Brook in shades, “We hope to adapt to conditions as quickly as we can, we’ve had a lot of learnings, hoping to finish on a high.” Sonny Baker comes in for Jamie Overton, who has a quad strain.
