Catch OUT. OUT! Caught & Bowled. Joe Root to Asitha Fernando. Off break length ball, to leg backing away Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to short extra cover, caught by Root. England have restricted Sri Lanka to a total below par, especially considering how good the batting conditions looked early on. The pitch did slow up as the innings progressed, and once the spinners came into play, it became a very different challenge. Sri Lanka got promising starts, but the big knock never arrived. That's where England clawed their way back, tight lines, clever changes of pace, and sharp fields meant the batters found it hard to rotate strike through the middle overs. If the surface continues to grip like this, the chase won't be straightforward, but England have given themselves a genuine chance to level the series. Stay tuned for the chase.
