Live Cricket Score - England vs Sri Lanka, 1st T20I

1-0 to England

They get the job done on expected lines. Buttler is unbeaten until the end and England chase down 130 with 17 balls left to spare. No sweat whatsoever. England take a lead in the series and are favourites to wrap it up as well. Sri Lanka need a batting effort with the bat to stay alive in the series and they don't have a lot of time to bounce back.

Timber

Disappointing outing for Dawid Malan. He departs for just 7 as Isuru Udana bowls one straight, only for the batsman to miss. The ball disturbs the stumps as Bairstow strides in. England need just 18 more.

Fantastic catch

Roy wants to clear the man at mid off but Gunathilaka takes an absolute screamer to pluck a wicket for his side out of nowhere. England lose a wicket after putting up 80 for the opening wicket. Dawid Malan is in next now. 50 needed from 65.

Powerplay to England

Two boundaries to round off the powerplay and this game is done and dusted already. England have scored 61 runs in six overs. Even though the slow bowlers are expected to make an impact in the middle overs, England will fancy themselves to get the job done. They just need 69 off 84 deliveries with all 10 wickets intact.

England off to a flier

On expected lines, Buttler and Roy are off to a flier. The boundaries are flying thick and fast. It just shows the gulf in class between these two teams. 44 runs knocked off already in 4 overs.
