England vs Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI Match Preview:
England's batting was in a spot of bother after their top order collapsed. Jonny Bairstow is a key batter for them along with Joe Root. Liam Livingstone is a player to watch out for and could score quick runs at the top of the order.
Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, and Chris Woakes comprise a deadly all-round trio. In the last game, Ali and Woakes played a crucial role in the win.
Sri Lanka's batting has been at an all-time low. All the burden of scoring runs is on Kusal Perera. Dasun Shanaka is an experienced campaigner and will play a key role in the middle order.
Wanindu Hasaranga is one of the top upcoming all-rounders. He played an important knock of 54 in the last match to keep Sri Lanka in the game. Dushmantha Chameera is the key bowler.
England is looking favorites to win against an out of sorts looking Sri Lanka in this ODI series.
