That's it from this game then! England take an unassailable 2-0 lead into the 3 match ODI series. The sides will meet again on Sunday 4th July 2021 at 1100 local (1000 GMT) where either England will whitewash them or Sri Lanka will get a consolation win. Do join us then. Till then, adios and take care!

Sam Curran, the MAN OF THE MATCH, says that it is special to play in front of the fans and it was cool to get the win. Tells that the ball swung which was nice to see. Goes onto say that he feels that he has played a lot of cricket and he is learning every game and he is lucky to be going on all around the world and getting the experience. States that Tom bowled well and he is pleased for him.

Eoin Morgan, the England skipper, says that it is good that he scored some runs and contributed to a series win. Adds that their bowlers set up the win. Tells that the pitch got slower and they needed to settle. Goes onto say that Bairstow and Roy played well while Root was brilliant as always. Goes onto say that there are some nice distractions as a captain and he does not have to think of his batting for a while but it was nice to spend some time in the middle. Tells that they might make some changes for the final game and they have an eye on the Pakistan series as well. States that it is nice to have Billings and Moeen back in the side.

Kusal Perera, the Sri Lankan skipper, says the top order did not work. Adds that Dhananjaya de Silva, Dasun Shanaka and Wanindu Hasaranga played really well. Tells that there are some positives and they need to be consistent. Goes onto say that they want to finish on a winning note.

Earlier in the day, Sri Lanka was asked to bat and were put in deep trouble losing 4 wickets for 21. Dhananjaya de Silva's 91 and Shanaka's 47 helped the side to put on a modest 241. England's bowling was superb as Sam Curran's 5-fer and David Willey's 4-wicket haul helped England restrict the visitors. Overall, it was a comfortable win for England. Stay tuned for the presentation ceremony!!!

Sri Lankan bowlers started poorly at the start as none of the bowlers managed to build pressure and keep England on the back foot baring Chameera. Once Wanindu Hasaranga was introduced, runs started to dry out and he scalped the wicket of Jonny Bairstow. Chamika Karunaratne was successful in getting the wicket of dangerous Jason Roy. After that, the bowlers couldn't do much as the target was a piece of cake for the England batters and they won with 42 balls to spare.

England did not have to break a sweat as Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy set the platform for England as they started really well. Roy played more of the aggressor and later Bairstow joined him too. They stitched a 72-run partnership before Bairstow departed. Roy continued to attack and brought up his fifty as well but got out soon playing a rather loose shot. After that Morgan and Root continued their dominance on the pitch. While Root played his masterclass, Morgan came back to form with a fine 75. Their partnership saw them cruise through the victory line without any trouble and take the series home.

A convincing win for England! They have chased down 242 easily and they have taken the series 2-0 with one game to spare. Excellent performance. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, have had a tough series and they have only pride to play for on Sunday.

Commentary

We are back for the run chase! The Sri Lankan players make their way out to the middle, followed by Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow. Dushmantha Chameera will start with the ball.

Right then! England need 242 runs to win and with the batting line-up they have, this should not be too difficult a task but Sri Lankan bowlers have done a good job in the previous games and they won't make it easy. What will happen? Do join us in a while for the run chase.

Sam Curran is up for a chat! He says that Oval is a lovely place to play cricket in and also says that he was riding his luck. Adds that the ball swung which was a huge help. States that it is a very good pitch and it will come onto the bat nicely in the second innings.

Sri Lanka made a good recovery as they were 21 for 4 at one stage but to reach 241 is an achievement. Dhananjaya de Silva was the star of the show with the bat as he played some lovely shots in his 91. He deserved a 100 but fell short. Dasun Shanaka played a very handy knock. There were some handy contributions down the order but the main worry for Sri Lanka will be the top order.

England's bowling was led by the two left-armers, Sam Curran and David Willey. The former took 5 wickets while Willey finished with 4. They were brilliant especially Curran who impressed on his home ground. Tom Curran did a good job but was unlucky not to get a wicket while Adil Rashid too did a decent job. They could have got this done early but Sri Lanka made a good recovery.

A good recovery from Sri Lanka after being at 21 for 4 at one stage. They did not look like they will reach even 200 but they have managed to reach 241. It is not a match-winning score as the pitch is very good to bat on and England have a very strong batting line-up but it is a good recovery. England, on the other hand, had another good day with the ball but they will rue the fact that they gave away few runs towards the end.

Sri Lanka have taken a review for LBW. Ultra Edge confirms no bat involved. The Ball Tracker shows the ball is pitching outside leg. The on-field decision stays. Sri Lanka lose their review.

32.40

NOT OUT! Pitching outside leg! Floated on the pads, Morgan looks to play the reverse sweep but misses and gets hit on the pads. There is an appeal for LBW but the umpire says no. Sri Lanka take the review but in vain as the Ball Tracker shows that it is pitching outside leg.

Commentary

We are back for the run chase! The Sri Lankan players make their way out to the middle, followed by Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow. Dushmantha Chameera will start with the ball.

Right then! England need 242 runs to win and with the batting line-up they have, this should not be too difficult a task but Sri Lankan bowlers have done a good job in the previous games and they won't make it easy. What will happen? Do join us in a while for the run chase.

Sam Curran is up for a chat! He says that Oval is a lovely place to play cricket in and also says that he was riding his luck. Adds that the ball swung which was a huge help. States that it is a very good pitch and it will come onto the bat nicely in the second innings.

Sri Lanka made a good recovery as they were 21 for 4 at one stage but to reach 241 is an achievement. Dhananjaya de Silva was the star of the show with the bat as he played some lovely shots in his 91. He deserved a 100 but fell short. Dasun Shanaka played a very handy knock. There were some handy contributions down the order but the main worry for Sri Lanka will be the top order.

England's bowling was led by the two left-armers, Sam Curran and David Willey. The former took 5 wickets while Willey finished with 4. They were brilliant especially Curran who impressed on his home ground. Tom Curran did a good job but was unlucky not to get a wicket while Adil Rashid too did a decent job. They could have got this done early but Sri Lanka made a good recovery.

A good recovery from Sri Lanka after being at 21 for 4 at one stage. They did not look like they will reach even 200 but they have managed to reach 241. It is not a match-winning score as the pitch is very good to bat on and England have a very strong batting line-up but it is a good recovery. England, on the other hand, had another good day with the ball but they will rue the fact that they gave away few runs towards the end.

Length delivery on leg, de Silva looks to tuck it away but misses. The ball hits the front pad. Half-hearted appeal from Tom Curran for an LBW but nothing from the umpire. It was going down leg.

The physio is out there to look at Jonny Bairstow who seems to have hurt his finger. Let's hope that he is fine.

Full and on middle, worked towards mid on for a quick single. The fielder fires a throw at the striker's end. De Silva is caught napping there as he runs casually looking at the fielder. He collides with Jonny Bairstow as he crosses the crease. He would have been miles behind had that hit. Lucky escape for Dhananjaya de Silva.

Drinks! England are on top here as they picked up 4 wickets for just 21 runs. Since then, they have bowled well but have not been able to pick up further wickets. They would look to continue chipping away at the wickets and look to restrict Sri Lanka. The visitors, on the other hand, started poorly but the partnership between Dhananjaya de Silva and Wanindu Hasaranga is looking good but they need to continue and help Sri Lanka post a decent score.

Toss - Up goes the coin and it lands in favour of England. They have elected to field first.

Hello all! We are all set for the second ODI between England and Sri Lanka. It has been all England in the limited over series so far and Sri Lanka have surrendered rather meekly. Their bowling has done a good job but their batting shows a sorry picture which they need to rectify before it is too late. The hosts, on the other hand, have been ruthless with the ball and there are slight concerns with the bat. They would look to wrap up the ODI series here itself. Will Sri Lanka be able to level the series or will England continue to dominate? Toss and team updates in a while.
