सोनी बाकर To दिलशान मदुशंका
Huge roar of appeal for LBW, but the umpire shakes his head as it is clearly going down the leg side. Overpitched, slanting in, on middle and leg, Dilshan Madushanka misses his flick and wears on the pad.

जोफ्रा आर्चर To नुवान तुषारा
Just beats the off stump! Good-length delivery, with pace, just outside off. Nuwan Thushara makes room and tries to defend it uncomfortably away from his body. The ball just glides past the off stump after beating the outside edge of the bat.
Nuwan Thushara is the last man in.

जोफ्रा आर्चर To वानिंदु हसरंगा OUT!
OUT! HIT WICKET! A bizarre dismissal. When it rains, it pours, quips Kumar Sangakkara, and that really sums up the Lankan innings. Pace taken off by Archer, on a good length. Hasaranga has a swipe across the line but he fails to pick the change of pace and is through his shot early, which results in him failing to make any connection. The follow-through of his bat goes ever so close to the stumps, and it ends up clipping the top of the woodwork when Wanindu sinks to a knee.

जोफ्रा आर्चर To वानिंदु हसरंगा
On a length, around off and middle. Wanindu Hasaranga heaves it from the inner part of his bat to deep square leg. He turns down the single.

जोफ्रा आर्चर To वानिंदु हसरंगा
FOUR! Oh, what a shot that is! Archer pitches it much fuller, on middle. Wanindu Hasaranga clears his front foot to drill it away toward the left of the mid on fielder and gets a crucial boundary.
The new batter is Dilshan Madushanka. It will be Wanindu Hasaranga on strike, though.

जोफ्रा आर्चर To ईशान मलिंगा OUT!
OUT! ESHAN MALINGA IS RUN OUT! Another one bites the dust. Angled in on a good length, on off. Malinga stays back and stabs it beside the strip on the off side before scampering through for a quick single. Archer can't get to the ball but Liam Dawson swoops in from a catching cover and picks the ball up cleanly. He opens up his body to be able to have a shy at the bowling end. He scores the direct hit with an underarm throw, with Eshan being well short.

जोफ्रा आर्चर To वानिंदु हसरंगा
At 135 kph, on a length, Hasaranga swings for the hills. The ball flies down to deep third off a thick outside edge. Adil Rashid sprints to his left and so nearly gets beaten by the spin. He overruns the ball but manages to stick out the right hand and make the stop. Just a single.

जेमी ओवरटन To थारिन्दु रत्नायके OUT!
OUT! DRAGGED ON! Jamie Overton has his first wicket. It is the off-cutter by Overton, angled across off from over the wicket, on a length. Ratnayake hangs deep in the crease and clears his front leg. He has a big heave across the line with his body weight on the back foot. The ball catches an inside edge and deflects back onto the stumps. Sri Lanka are now 7 down for 119.

जोफ्रा आर्चर To कामिंदु मेंडिस OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Jofra Archer strikes gold on his return to the attack. Archer steams in from around the wicket and digs it in short, on off. Mendis gets his hands high as he tries to take the short ball on. He does not quite go through with the shot completely and picks out the man at deep mid-wicket. With Mendis hitting into the wind, Will Jacks is a good 20-30 yards in off the ropes and he makes no mistake in completing the catch.
Jofra Archer comes back into the attack. Archer went for 15 runs in his only over so far.

लियम डॉसन To दसुन शनाका OUT!
OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Not the best of balls but Liam Dawson will take it. A bit of a drag down, near the tramline. Shanaka does not move his feet much and goes hard on the cut with his hands. The ball stays low to graze the underedge and Jos Buttler does really well to stay low and pouch it safely. Shanaka stands there in disbelief. Sri Lanka are now 107/5.

FOUR! CHANCE GOES DOWN! You can't really fault Tom Banton there. Floated up, on off. Mendis skips down the track and launches it down towards long off. Banton is a bit wide there, and he sprints to his left to get to the ball but slips in the process and falls on his back as the ball goes past him and into the fence.

विल जैक्स To कामिंदु मेंडिस OUT!
OUT! CHARITH ASALANKA IS RUN OUT! There was no real excitement from England at first, with many believing Jacks had missed the chance. But as it turns out, he did enough, and that is a crushing blow for Sri Lanka. Speared in by flat and short, on middle. Mendis plays the late dab and as soon as the shot is played, Asalanka sets off for the run. He is almost halfway through before being sent back. He turns around and is late in doing so. Adil Rashid at short third is quick to get rid of the ball and throws it on the bounce towards the bowling end. Jacks gets beside the sticks to inflict the run out. The third umpire is called into action and although Jacks got the slightest of touches, the replays confirm that when the stumps light up, Asalanka was short of his ground despite the dive.
10.2

विल जैक्स To चरिथ असलंका
Wayward from Jacks. Drifts down leg, on a length. Charith tickles it fine. It goes towards the deep fine leg fence, where it is hauled in just before the boundary cushions. The batters hustle back for the third run as the throw comes in. Jos Buttler gathers the throw and flicks it behind onto the stumps, but Mendis is in by then. 9 runs already off the over.
10.1
6
विल जैक्स To चरिथ असलंका
SIX! That has gone back many a mile. Floated up at 78 kph, on middle. Asalanka charges down the track, and even though he is not entirely to the pitch of the ball, he reaches out to club it against the spin over deep mid-wicket for a biggie.
DRINKS BREAK! The game is on an even footing at the halfway stage. Sri Lanka have managed to get a partnership going, but they need this pair to go on for a while longer and provide a launchpad for the likes of Dasun Shanaka and Wanindu Hasaranga. England, meanwhile, have done well to break partnerships at regular intervals, and their fielding has also been sharp so far. This has not been the kind of wicket where you can simply swing through the line, and the slower balls have proved particularly effective. For a side that prides itself on adapting to the conditions, you can expect more of those variations from the home side as the innings progresses.

विल जैक्स To पथुम निसांका OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Oh my word. What a catch from Harry Brook. Will Jacks drops his length short, just outside off. Pathum Nissanka opens his stance and decides to pull at it, but ends up hitting it flat toward the right of Harry Brook in the mid-wicket region. He locks his eyes on the ball, dives to his right and takes a sharp catch. Brook, on seeing Nissanka press back and set up for the pull, anticipated the shot and took a couple of steps to his right. That meant the ball came within his reach, and he did not have to stretch too far to complete the catch. Top stuff from the skipper of England.

OUT! CAUGHT! Kamil Mishara holes out! Jacks gives the ball a bit of air, on a good length, on off. Mishara puts on the dancing shoes, trying to hit it with the wind towards the leg side. He does not get to the pitch of the ball but still swings at it. Gets it right off the toe end of the blade, and it goes only far as long on, where Jamie Overton settles under it and gobbles it up.

Looped up, on middle. Nissanka charges down the track, looking to go back over the bowler's head. He ends up getting too close to the ball and shanks it off the inner half towards deep mid-wicket. They cross.

More good fielding! Jacks switches to around the wicket and slows it down, on a good length, on off. Nissanka reaches out in front and sweeps it in front of square on the leg side. Due to the rain we have had earlier, the ball slows down in the outfield, allowing Aneurin Donald to get to it. Donald sprints to his left and dives to prevent the boundary. Another brace.

Good effort in the field! Flighted up, on off. Nissanka sinks to a knee and clubs it towards wide long on. Jamie Overton covers good ground to his right and gets down on his knees as he pushes the ball away from the fence. Two runs taken.
A double change as Will Jacks has been introduced.

Had to hurry! Fired in a full ball, on off. Pathum knocks it firmly towards mid off. Tom Banton swoops in but fails to pick the ball up cleanly in one go. A clean pick up and a direct hit could have found Nissanka in trouble.

SIX! With the wind and into the stands! Dawson floats it up, a hint of turn, on off. Nissanka gets down on a knee and nails the slog sweep over deep mid-wicket for half a dozen.
Will Archer continue? The answer is no. It is time for spin as Liam Dawson comes on.

सोनी बाकर To लहिरू उदारा OUT!
OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! A well-judged catch by Jos Buttler. Not easy with the amount of wind, but Buttler was cool as a cucumber. Baker goes into the deck and angles it in at the body of the right-hander. Udara swivels on the pull but fails to roll his wrists over the ball. A top edge is found, and it is skied a long way up towards short fine leg. Buttler, the man with the gloves, calls for it and runs over his left shoulder. He settles under the swirling ball and takes a safe catch. End of a 22-run opening stand.
An expensive first over for Jofra Archer, 15 runs off it. Sonny Baker to continue...

FOUR! Good presence of mind from Udara. Jofra Archer starts with a short-length delivery, outside off. Lahiru Udara picks up the length quickly, stands tall and upper cuts it over short third for a boundary.
Jofra Archer will steam in from the other end. Stephen Fleming, England's newly appointed Test coach, has been spotted on the balcony, sitting with Brendon McCullum and Tim Southee. Fleming is yet to take charge and will officially begin his role later this year during England's tour of South Africa.

Beaten straightaway! Full and wide outside off, Pathum Nissanka prods halfway to punch it away, but the ball beats the outside edge by a big margin.
We are all set for the action to commence. Blue skies and sunshine greet the two umpires as they make their way out to the middle. Harry Brook leads his troops out onto the park. There is a stiff breeze blowing across the ground, which both teams will need to take into account. Pathum Nissanka and Lahiru Udara will open the innings for Sri Lanka. Sonny Baker will start with the new ball. Nissanka is on strike. There is a slip in place. Off we go...
The skipper of Sri Lanka - Charith Asalanka says they had a great Powerplay in the second game and stresses the importance of not giving wickets away at regular intervals. Asalanka shares that adjusting to the conditions has been the biggest challenge for Sri Lanka since arriving here.
The captain of England - Harry Brook says they want to chase, with the surface looking good for batting, and hopes they can restrict Sri Lanka to a manageable total. He adds that this is a different ground with different dimensions, so adapting to the conditions will be important.
Sri Lanka (Playing XI) - Pathum Nissanka, Lahiru Udara, Kamil Mishara (WK), Charith Asalanka (C), Kamindu Mendis, Dasun Shanaka, Wanindu Hasaranga, Tharindu Ratnayake, Nuwan Thushara (In for Dushmantha Chameera), Eshan Malinga, and Dilshan Madushanka.
England (Unchanged XI) - Jos Buttler (WK), Aneurin Donald, Harry Brook (C), Tom Banton, Jordan Cox, Will Jacks, Jamie Overton, Liam Dawson, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, and Sonny Baker.
TOSS - The coin lands in Harry Brook's favour for the second game in a row. England have elected to BOWL first.
How's the weather looking? There was some rain earlier this morning, but the skies have cleared up in Manchester, and conditions are looking fine for the game. Stick around, as the flip of the coin is not far away.
Do you know? England have won the last 14 T20I meetings between the two sides, underlining their dominance in this fixture. Sri Lanka's last T20I win over England came way back in 2014, when they edged England by 9 runs at The Oval. The Lankans will be determined to put an end to that losing streak, but they will have to overcome an England side that has also won its last 7 completed T20Is at home.
Whitewash on the cards? England, who had dismantled world champions India earlier in their home season, are turning into a fearsome T20I side. A third consecutive win today would push them closer to the number 1 spot in the rankings. For Sri Lanka, this will be their first T20I at this iconic ground. That unfamiliarity with the surface could prove a hurdle for the visitors. A win here would allow Sri Lanka to carry some momentum into the ODI leg of the tour.
Ready, set, go - Hello and a very warm welcome to everyone joining us for the third and final match of the T20I series. England have dominated the series so far, winning first in Southampton and then in Cardiff, and now the hosts arrive at Old Trafford eyeing a whitewash with the kind of authority that has defined their white-ball summer.
... MATCH DAY ...
Clean sweep on the horizon - The series is already in the bag, but the hunger remains unsated as England and Sri Lanka travel north to Manchester for the third and final T20. Harry Brook and his high-flying English side have completely outclassed the visitors across the opening two fixtures, wrapping up the series with a match to spare and leaving Sri Lanka searching for answers. England blasted 254 in Southampton to claim a crushing 119-run win in the opener, then followed it up with a ruthless six-wicket demolition in Cardiff with nearly eight overs to spare. Now the caravan arrives at Old Trafford with England eyeing an emphatic 3-0 clean sweep. With the silverware already decided, this clash is about maintaining ruthless standards for the hosts and salvaging sheer pride for the visitors before the three-match ODI series gets underway. A decade-long jinx - History between these two sides in the shortest format reads like a tough read for the island nation. Sri Lanka have not beaten England since May 2014. England have dominated the rivalry ever since, racking up fourteen consecutive victories against them. Charith Asalanka and his squad will carry that lingering burden into Manchester. Sri Lanka have occasionally challenged elite sides with their spin variations and natural flair, but against England in English conditions, their blueprints have repeatedly unraveled. Snatching a consolation victory would not alter the series outcome, but it would provide some much-needed relief and halt an agonizing losing streak. Powerhouse batting displays - England batting unit has operated on an entirely different level throughout the rubber. In Southampton, Harry Brook put on a clinic with an unbeaten 114, partnered by an aggressive 80 from Jos Buttler to set up a massive total. When tasked with chasing 146 in Cardiff, they treated the contest like a sprint, as Tom Banton hammered a 24-ball 52 to close out the game in just over twelve overs. The ominous sign for Sri Lanka is how easily England have fired despite missing regular starters like Phil Salt and Sam Curran. Aneurin Donald has added explosive energy at the top, while the presence of Jordan Cox and Will Jacks provides endless depth. Sri Lanka bowlers have struggled to contain this aggressive approach, finding boundaries hard to protect once England batters find their range. Bowling venom and precision - England bowlers have complemented their batters with absolute discipline. Jofra Archer has provided his signature pace and hostility, while Jamie Overton has hit a hard length to trouble the middle order. Meanwhile, Liam Dawson claimed three wickets in Cardiff, teaming up with Adil Rashid to strangle the scoring rate through the middle overs. Young fast bowler Sonny Baker also made a strong impression, conceding just 15 runs from his four overs. For Sri Lanka, the bowling returns have been concerning. Ace spinner Wanindu Hasaranga was taken for 42 runs in Cardiff, while fast bowlers Dushmantha Chameera and Dilshan Madushanka have found it difficult to stem the flow of runs during the Powerplay. If Sri Lanka cannot strike early with the new ball, another tough outing in the field looms. Team form (Last 5 completed T20Is, recent first) - ENG - WWWWW | SL - LLLWL. What to expect at Old Trafford - Old Trafford typically offers good carry and consistent bounce, making it a true surface for white-ball cricket. Batters can play their shots through the line with confidence, while quick bowlers who bend their back will find decent lift off the pitch. As the afternoon progresses, spinners who vary their pace effectively can extract enough purchase to keep things interesting. England will view this game as a prime opportunity to seal a 3-0 whitewash and maintain their winning habit before the ODI matches begin. Sri Lanka are in desperate need of a collective performance. If they can put together a complete effort across all departments, they have the talent to test the hosts, but on current form and momentum, England enter Manchester firmly in the driving seat.
