    This looks like another Headingley belter.

  3. SL 123-1published at 22 overs

    Jofra Archer returns in place of Rehan Ahmed.

    The seamer's first three overs went for 23 runs and this one goes for five - four singles and a wide.

    That's brilliant batting. A perfect pull shot for six from Kamindu Mendis, who really hits well in the wind.

  5. 6 runs

    SL 118-1published at 21 overs

    Thanks, Matthew.

    Kusal Mendis picks up another boundary, fending off a Jamie Overton delivery and sending the ball scudding through an empty cordon for four.

    Kamindu Mendis then goes one better, picking the length of Overton's short ball and sending the ball flying high and over the mid-wicket boundary for six.

    A couple more singles follow to end the over - 13 runs from it.

  6. SL 105-1published at 20 overs

    Kusal Mendis keeps the pressure onto Rehan Ahmed with a late cut that beats Josh Tongue at short third. Ahmed didn't do a lot long that time. It's a good shot.

    It's time for me to hand to Mike Peter...

    It looks like Sri Lanka think Rehan Ahmed is the one they want to go after.

    You feel this is a big series for Ahmed. He has been given the opportunity with Adil Rashid missing with the hand injury.

  8. SL 99-1published at 19.1 overs

    Kusal Mendis puts away a Rehan Ahmed full toss now. For the second over in a row, Ahmed is under pressure early in his over.

    I think it has been a good innings so far for Kamindu Mendis.

    His tempo has been brilliant, and he has put the pressure on when he has needed to.

    Generally, his tempo has been pretty good.

  10. SL 95-1published at 19 overs

    Kamindu 40, Kusal 29

    Kamindu Mendis is just starting to up his scoring now as he flashes a cut shot past Will Jacks at backward point.

    Rehan Ahmed was quite expensive in the last game, even though he bowled nicely.

  12. SL 91-1published at 18 overs

    Leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed slows his speeds through the rest of the over and finds better results. One ball almost pops to the catcher inside the 30-yard ring but not to be.

    Jos Buttler is making England's 12th man work hard, switching between his cap and helmet between every over.

    Well, welcome to the game Rehan Ahmed.

    Christmas has come early for Kamindu Mendis.

  14. 6 runs

    SL 88-1published at 17.1 overs

    Well...

    Kamindu Mendis whacks Rehan Ahmed's first ball for six.

    Rehan Ahmed is coming on after drinks. He bowled better than his figures suggested on Tuesday but needs to lay down a marker in Adil Rashid's absence.

    Jamie Overton does have one of the quickest bouncers going around and Kusal Mendi is doing the right thing.

    At Headingley you want to hit the ball up. He is just not able to get the timing, maybe he is trying to hit it too hard.

  17. drinks break

    Drinks - SL 82-1published at 17 overs

    Another short ball from Jamie Overton and another Kusal Mendis top edge!

    After getting away with the one in the previous over via the dropped catch, this lands in an open space between wicketkeeper and fine leg.

    That'll be drinks. Sri Lanka have made a decent start without really hurting England as of yet.

  18. SL 78-1published at 16 overs

    Kusal Mendis gets Will Jacks away this time as England's off-spinner drifts too far down the leg side. It's a relatively straightforward sweep for four down to fine leg.

    Jacks looks annoyed. He recorded the second-best figures in England's ODI history at Durham.

    In both games so far, and I know today has just started, but the way Sri Lanka have played Will Jacks, they have not put him under any pressure.

  20. SL 71-1published at 15 overs

    Kamindu 26, Kusal 19

    That should have been a wicket in Jamie Overton's first over. Three from it. He thought there was an edge on another delivery too but the technology shows it was the right call not to review.
