Kusal, dropped on 17, brings up 82-ball century after overturning dismissal on 99

Sri Lanka win toss and bat first at Headingley

Sri Lanka have done their homework, they are looking to go square.
Against Rehan Ahmed there's been a lot of sweeps.
England are tight on the ones, they are making Sri Lanka hit it past them.

That is exactly what Sri Lanka and Charith Asalanka needed.
Pavan Rathnayake drives past the out-stretched hand of Gus Atkinson and Harry Brook makes a good diving stop at mid-on to stop a four.
Sri Lanka do get a boundary later in the over, with Charith Asalanka pulling to the ropes.

The way Sri Lanka started, the partnership they had, and the position they were in.
They will at least want to get to that 320-mark from here.
SL 230-3
Yeah, nothing in that. Impact was outside the line.
England lose a review - they have one remaining.
One ball left in the over - Charith Asalanka nudges the ball into the covers and doesn't score.
A bit of a punt on an lbw review?
Charith Asalanka gets his first four, pumping Rehan Ahmed through long-off, but is struck two balls later while down on one knee.
No-one seems that keen on the appeal, not even Rehan, but Harry Brook makes the signal for a review.

It makes captaincy easier when you pick up wickets. Will Jacks will fancy his chances against the left-hander, Charith Asalanka.
Will Jacks comes back into the attack and concedes just three singles from his over.
Pavan Rathnayake, who has 16 from 19 balls, and new batter Charith Asalanka have a rebuilding job on their hands here.
Kusal Mendis' runs were scored all round the wicket today, with two of the right-hander's three sixes coming down the ground.

Image source, Getty ImagesKusal Mendis played a brilliant knock. He has taken the slog sweep option then.
He has been attacking against the spin today, but he was not able to get that one to go for six.
Tom Banton managed to move around comfortably.

The centurion departs!
Kusal Mendis holes out to Tom Banton at deep mid-wicket off Rehan Ahmed, ending a magnificent innings of 121 from 100 balls.
Banton had mis-fielded out there a couple of balls earlier, almost letting a shot from Kusal break through for four, but made no mistake there.
Total false shots (edges and play & misses) drawn so far today:

I love the way Kusal Mendis is taking the positive options and he has put England under pressure.
It's probably been a while since Harry Brook has had to think tactically.
Sri Lanka have gone through the gears. They targeted the spin really well. They were explosive against the spin.
Kusal Mendis drops to his right and helps Jamie Overton's yorker through fine leg for four.
Normally from that position the ball will be lapped in the air, but that was jabbed along the ground.
He had to get that right, otherwise Overton's delivery would have cleared-up his exposed stumps.
The shot moves the Sri Lanka skipper to 118, meaning he's scored a century since he was dropped by Gus Atkinson.
'Fabulous knock' - Watch the best shots as Mendis reaches 100
Not a bad return for Rehan Ahmed - his first over back goes for four runs.
Russel Arnold
Ex-Sri Lanka all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special
Image source, PA MediaThere are lots of movements and Kusal Mendis has got to make sure there's not too many movements where he loses the ball.
He is trying to create some rhythm for himself.
They have to start rotating that strike regularly. Sri Lanka cannot afford to make a mistake here.
Jamie Overton takes the over after drinks - three singles from it.
Rehan Ahmed is coming on to bowl - we haven't seen any spin since the 23rd over, somewhat curious for an ODI.
Today's century is the first ODI hundred Kusal Mendis has scored outside of Asia in his career - Sri Lanka's captain has now scored four of Sri Lanka's last nine ODI centuries.

Hats off. Splendid hundred by one of the best Sri Lankan batters, Kusal Mendis.
