In today's match between England and Sri Lanka, Sam Curran has just taken only the second hat-trick by England in T20 internationals, after Chris Jordan's against USA at Bridgetown in the 2024 T20 World Cup.

It's Curran's third T20 hat-trick in all - he's already done it in the IPL and The Men's Hundred. His brother Tom has one in the Blast.

End of Vandersay's work for the day - 10-0-45-2. England 205-5, need just 15 more from the last five overs.
#cricket #ODI #SLvENG

Vandersay pins Brook plumb in front (the Yorkie doesn't even bother to send it upstairs) for 42 to make it 189-5, 31 needed from 7.2 overs with Jacks joining Buttler.

Root LBW for a splendid 75 that should have won England this match and him the Player of the Match award. England 179-4, need 41 more from 9.2 overs.
#cricket #ODI #SLvENG

Two in two for Root as Asitha Fernando sends his first and only ball straight up into the air and Root himself gets under it for a 'caught and bowled'. Sri Lanka 219 all out, not completely indefensible on this surface but definitely a little short.

Wellalage holes to Sam Curran off Joe Root for 20 (19) and Sri Lanka are 219-9 with four balls left in their innings.

Joe Root bowling the last over of the Sri Lanka innings.

35 overs gone and Sri Lanka are 150-4.

If Sri Lanka can somehow get to 250 in what remains of their innings I would make them favourites on a pitch like this.

Awful run out - Mendis hit the shot and set off, Dhananjaya de Silva was going nowhere, quite rightly, and Mendis could not get back. Sri Lanka 68-3 in the 18th over, Mendis gone for 26 (45).

Moon ball from S Curran, Nissanka spots it early and sends it out of the park for the first six of the day. A dot follows to end the eighth over with Sri Lanka 26-1.
#cricket #ODI #SLvENG

Liam Dawson starts with a maiden over. Sri Lanka 18-1 after seven overs. Tidy from England so far.
#cricket #ODI #SLvENG

Mishara goes, lashing a full wide ball just too close to Ben Duckett who holds a good catch. J Overton the successful bowler, Mishara gone for 5 (12), Sri Lanka 16-1 in the fifth over.
#cricket #ODI #SLvENG

Almost game time in Colombo. Sri Lanka have won the toss and will bat. They have four specialist bowlers, a genuine all rounder and a couple of batting all rounders. England have a stack of all rounders and only one specialist bowler in Adil Rashid. Other than the veteran leggie overs for them will come from some combination of S Curran, J Overton, Dawson, R Ahmed, Jacks and Bethell.
