England Cricket Team vs Sri Lanka National Cricket Team Match Preview
England Cricket Team vs Sri Lanka National Cricket Team Match Scorecard
Sri Lanka took 25.3 overs on the fourth day to secure their first Test victory in England since 2014, resulting in spectators receiving a 50% refund on their tickets due to the quick pace of the game. The visitors continued at 94 for 1, with an additional 125 runs required. Nissanka’s undefeated 127 from 124 deliveries, in addition to his earlier score of 64 in the first innings, led his team to victory by eight wickets.
England was relieved that the match was finally finished, especially after their poor performance in the second innings. They struggled to take wickets on the final morning, only managing to get one out of the nine needed. Failing to take advantage of the good weather on Friday, the pace bowlers were able to dismiss England for 156 in their second innings, with Lahiru Kumara and Vishwa Fernando standing out, as Jamie Smith’s powerful half-century was the only thing keeping the home team in the game. England may wish to erase it from memory, but they must also review their initial collapse from 261 for 3 to 325 all out.
