Hara-kiri at Pallekele! Sri Lanka batters surrender meekly; England win by 51 runs

Phil Salt’s sublime 62 laid the foundation for England’s commanding win before Sri Lanka’s batting imploded spectacularly in Kandy. After their bowlers restricted England to a below-par 146, Sri Lanka collapsed in a heap, undone by reckless shot selection and relentless pressure from England’s attack, led by Will Jacks and Jofra Archer.
