Lasith Malinga	10	0	46	1	4.60	30	3	0	2	0
42.6 to EJG Morgan, gone! This time Sri Lanka take a catch and the Powerplay works for the bowling side again. Full outside off, Morgan tried to go over the covers but lofts a chancer to cover who takes it comfortably. Fine innings from Morgan, but England needed him to finish these 50 overs. 186/4
Tillakaratne Dilshan	6	1	25	1	4.16	19	1	0	1	0
7.6 to AJ Strauss, gone! That was always going to happen. A horrid innings from the captain is ended when misses a pull against a ball that doesn't bounce much. Much deserved for Dilshan. 29/1
Angelo Mathews	5	0	20	1	4.00	20	2	0	0	0
8.6 to IR Bell, gone! Huge wicket for Sri Lanka as Bell chips a catch to midwicket. Was back of a length and Bell tried to force it through the leg side but didn't keep it down. Was a loose shot and a simple catch. Another start wasted from Bell. England wobbling.. 31/2
Rangana Herath	10	1	47	0	4.70	27	3	0	0	0
Ajantha Mendis	10	0	34	1	3.40	29	0	0	0	0
43.1 to GP Swann, gone! That didn't last long. Swann goes for the reverse slog-sweep and is stone dead. He set himself so early the bowler hadn't delivered. England coming off the rails in the Powerplay again. 186/5
Muthiah Muralidaran	9	0	54	2	6.00	20	3	0	1	0
26.6 to RS Bopara, gone! Muralitharan makes the breakthrough as Bopara is given lbw sweeping a very full delivery. Murali was round the wicket, it struck him full on the pad and was hitting middle. Bopara reviewed but it was stone dead. 95/3 48.3 to IJL Trott, gone...Trott goes trying to clear the rope as a top edged a sweep is safely taken at deep square and he drags himself off the park. 212/6
