England secure a six-wicket victory to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. A 75-minute rain delay reduced their innings to 17 overs, with a revised target of 168. Needing a further 111 off 52 balls, they came flying out of the traps on the restart and were always in control of the chase. Tom Banton starred with an unbeaten 54, while Jos Buttler contributed a solid 39, and Harry Brook's cameo of 36 off just 12 balls ensured momentum was never lost. For Sri Lanka, Matheesha Pathirana finished with two wickets to his name, but they were hampered by Eshan Malinga's injury. Tom Banton is the Player of the Match.
