England vs Sri Lanka, 42nd Match, Super 8 Group 2 (Y1 v Y4), ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Dilshan Madushanka to Jofra Archer, out Caught by Dushan Hemantha!! Jofra Archer does not trouble the scorers. It was a hit-me full toss outside off and Archer ended up slapping it (off the toe end) to the left of the fielder at mid-off. Hemantha kept his eyes on the ball, put in a full length dive and grabbed it with both hands. Jofra Archer c Dushan Hemantha b Dilshan Madushanka 0(1)

Dilshan Madushanka to Will Jacks, out Caught by Dunith Wellalage!! He may have gone for a couple of boundaries, but ultimately got the big wicket. Sprays a full toss wide of off stump and Jacks - who was on the move - could only flay his hands through the shot. Eked out a big top-edge and the man at deep backward point settles under it with an air of calmness. Will Jacks c Dunith Wellalage b Dilshan Madushanka 21(14) [4s-4]
