Despite a top-order collapse, England's middle-order finished the game with ease last night. The batting unit is as strong as one can get. With the series already won, there is a chance Moeen Ali could come in the playing XI. Liam Livingstone and Sam Billings will be crucial.
The bowling was excellent throughout the 20 overs. There were almost no boundary balls by either of the bowlers. Adil Rashid remains the X-factor of England's bowling lineup. Chris Woakes might come in this game.
Sri Lanka's batting is a major concern. Apart from Kusul Perera, no one has been inconsistent. Kusal Mendis had a good game yesterday, and he will look to continue his rhythm in the next match as well.
