England Vs Sri Lanka News

Sri Lanka showcased a terrific comeback with the ball by bundling England for 156 despite their lower order struggles against the host attack in the morning session. A fifty from Pathum Nissanka kept Sri Lanka in the chase, needing 125 more runs to win with nine wickets and a couple of days left.

A game of five days might sound boring, but not when two riveting opponents lock horns against one another. The excitement of the contest peaked in the second session of the third day at the Oval when Lahiru Kumara won the battle against Dan Lawrence, adding to his batting misery in the series.  

Injuries are fairly common in cricket fielding, though some impacts can be particularly severe, resulting in bleeding. A notable instance occurred during the third Test match between Sri Lanka and England, where a ferocious delivery from Lahiru Kumara hit Ollie Pope's elbow, causing it to bleed.

England youngster Josh Hull is all set to make his Test debut in England’s third test against Sri Lanka at the Kia Oval, London. His introduction to the squad came in as a surprise package for many after Mark Wood was injured and ruled following the first Test at Old Trafford, Manchester.
