    11.3 big, ambitious wipe across the line, and Roy's fierce strike is held up in the cross-wind for Perera at deep midwicket to steady himself under the fast-plummeting orb and pouch it with a dive. Well judged, and England's power-player is gone! 67/1

    18.4 the angle from round the wicket does the trick. Slides on with the arm outside off, Danushka shortened his length slightly on seeing the batsman skip out of the crease. Vince slashes and only connects with thin air. Lolly-pop stumping for Chandi 108/2

    49.1 Root got a life in the nineties. Root falls in the nineties. This was the back of the hand legcutter. 112ks. Root dances out and misses the leg-side swipe. Timbaaah! 314/6

    24.1 Morgan tosses away another bright start. Looped up outside off, Morgan seeks to drive it inside-out. He ends up slicing it in the air. Mendis at sweeper cover runs to his left and completes a smart tumbling catch. Plucked it inches from the ground 137/3

    32.5 YJB holes out to long-on! He was perhaps caught between attacking and dinking on this occasion. Tossed on middle from round the wicket, YJB stepped away outside leg to open up the off side. Instead of bashing that away with an inside-out hit, he halfheartedly shovels a catch to Shanaka 182/4

    49.6 Pradeep collects the ball and pings an over-arm throw, nails the stumps at the non-striker's end. Pradeep hadn't got the yorker right. This is a floaty full toss, which is deflected back to the bowler. The batsmen aim to steal a single off the last ball. The bowler hits now and Plunkett is miles short 324/7

    3.6 given by umpire Reiffel! A bit of nip back, looked a touch short for an lbw, on first glance. He was on the back foot, and it hit him quite high on the back leg as he stood there and looked to punch down the ground. Kusal reviews. Replays suggest it wasn't that high. Hits him on the back leg, just above the knee roll, in front of middle stump, and Hawkeye says it's hitting top of the stumps 9/1

    16.3 appeal for lbw from round the wicket, umpire Gough's finger goes up. Danushka has a chat with Chandi. But they don't have any reviews. Danushka has to go. This was full and veered in from round the wicket to ping the back leg as Danushka aimed a flick and missed. Was that slipping past leg with the angle? 83/3

    13.4 England think they have Mendis, despite the full-stretch dive. Mendis is short on the second, the replays confirm it. Bairstow hands the hosts the breakthrough. Accurate, flat throw to Buttler, who gathers it in front of the stumps and flips the bails off. One stump is sent flying actually. Full and shading towards the leg stump, neatly flicked through midwicket. Bairstow in the deep hunts the ball down. The second was always a risk, especially against Bairstow. Mendis plays the penalty and SL's momentum is snapped 66/2

    21.2 tossed up, pitches on the crease as Tharanga drives loosely, and his off stump pops out of the ground with a hugely satisfying "splut"! A first-baller, and now the welsh soprano is beginning to warble 106/5

    34.4 Prasanna pulls and hits it reasonably well. The placement, though, was wrong. Excellent catch at fine leg. Willey dives forward to snap up a low catch. This was short on the leg stump and the fielder came out with the ball in his left hand 170/7

    40.4 Lakmal plops a catch into the hands of Morgan at short extra cover. Cutter from Willey, sticks in the surface, outside off. Lakmal loses his shape as he seeks to drive. He has to settle with a sliced hit to the England captain 194/8

    42.4 England wrap up a 3-0 series win. Full at the leg stump, hint of reverse-swing again, Pradeep backs away and searches for a lofted hit. He can only miscue it to mid-on. Woakes settles under it 202/10
