Liyanagamage ke W Jacks
Four runs. FOUR! Pramod Madushan to Will Jacks. Reverse Swing-In half volley, middle stump on the front foot flick, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. England clinch a five-wicket victory, keeping the series alive with a composed chase under pressure. They took a bold call by promoting Rehan Ahmed in the absence of Zak Crawley, but the youngster couldn't cash in, falling to Sri Lanka's wily, experienced spinner. From there, Ben Duckett and Joe Root steadied the ship. It wasn't flashy, just smart, risk-free cricket. They rotated the strike efficiently, found the odd boundary, and ensured the innings never lost shape. Sri Lanka's spinners did spark hope once again with two quick wickets, tightening the screws at a crucial stage. Just when the game threatened to drift, England's skipper and the veteran batter combined calmly, absorbing pressure and inching closer to the target. Sri Lanka refused to fade away, striking late by removing well-set batters to keep the contest alive deep into the chase. But in the end, Jos Buttler and Will Jacks provided the finishing touch and England crossed the line to square the series. Joe Root is adjudged as the Player of the Match for his all-round performance.
