That news is tempered slightly by the impressive performance of debutant Sachin Colombage on Tuesday. He stepped up as main spinner in Hasaranga's absence and was really impressive.

Some news from the Sri Lanka camp.

Leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga is heading home after experiencing lower back pain during a practice session.

Hasaranga experienced the discomfort prior to the first one-day international on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old, who played in all three of the T20 internationals that preceded this series, will play no further part on this tour.

Sri Lanka have a pair of Mendises in the middle now - Kamindu and Kusal. Kusal is the skipper.

The ball with the wobble seam, somehow it has got a bit of movement.

Pathum Nissanka knew he was gone. Three fours and a six for Nissanka in his 25 runs.

That is a delivery he puts away, that's his bread and butter, but for some reason he just missed it.

That is what pressure feels for you.

Nissanka is already walking off...

There's not bat on it, that's for sure.

That looked plumb from here!

That single proved Russel's point. That's the first time there has been two singles in one over. Eight singles have come across seven different overs.

A few of you are grumbling about Jofra Archer after his opening spell.

These were the stats before the previous game...

England pacers in the powerplay - ODIs since 2025 Jofra Archer - 13 wickets, 20.9 average, 4.68 economy

Other Pacers - 20 wickets, 40.8 average, 5.70 economy

The area Sri Lanka struggle with is rotation of strike and getting a bit of rhythm, and it is the singles which allow you to do that.

A beautiful shot by Pathum Nissanka. Again, this tells you how the pitch is playing.

Good length, and Pathum Nissanka leans on it past backward point.

England's bowlers have got to change their expectations.

It's a bouncy surface here. The length you need to hit the stumps may also be too full. Pathum Nissanka guides another one, this time getting it through the off side for four. As with the previous overs, the boundary is followed by a run of dots.

Across the opening seven overs of the innings, England have bowled only three deliveries projected to hit the stumps.

Back to the previous point, Mark Wood's a reliable chap. I'd trust him to name a baby. I'm sure there are plenty of your jobs he'd excel at in retirement.

Kamindu Mendis shows the quality of this surface by dispatching Josh Tongue over the leg-side for four.

Harry Brook withdraws his slip fielder in this over - an admission that run-scoring needs to be slowed. This is a good pitch, far better for batting than the one up at Chester-le-Street.

Assessments are that it's a good wicket.

It is a used pitch, but it still looks value for runs across the square.

England's bowlers need to adjust their expectations from Chester-Le-Street.

I'm not sure if Mark Wood is up for requests but we need to go bigger. Shall I ask him to name your baby too?

Jofra Archer's mood worsens as he is pulled for a second six at the end of the over. Pitch it up.
