Think coverage starts at 5am on SKY

Don't think anyone would have predicted an England win today when play started - fair play to Sibley for sticking around and being not out at the end

Dare I say you look like you could be right - 85-3 currently needing another 79 to win with Root just out. Think we will have enough but another 2 quick wickets and it goes back in the balance...

46-1 at tea, so far so good...

70-7 - bowl them out for less than 150 and game on

Opps good point - in that case we may as well declare overnight 🤣

Good day marred by the last 30 mins that gives SL a chance to force a win on the last day. Root brilliant again - they can only get him run out lol Broad may as well come out swinging tomorrow and if it comes off we could just about be at parity - spinners need to come to the party to try and...

Lose Curran last ball before tea - 252-6. Need to grind it out as new ball taken and turning sharply

Ah....4 down now, Lawrence gone for 3. Reckon Sri Lanka will get a 150 run lead and try and bowl us out on the final day

Excellent response by Root and Bairstow but you cant help feeling that an early wicket tomorrow will result in a big lead for Sri Lanka. Serious issues with the opening pair against spin heading into the toughest series around right now. Can we clone Jimmy please - what a miss he will be in the...

So weve been 2 down for nowt in all 3 innings so far - doesnt bode well for India. Sibley is a huge concern for me - personally would drop him for Burns as he looks like he has no idea against spin in sub continent

Sibley gone for a duck..

England under pressure now - need to bat until close tomorrow to get close and force a draw

38-3 at stumps needing 36 to win. Steadied the ship somewhat after a nightmare start. Should win comfortably from here assuming tomorrow isnt washed out

This is truly pathetic - just bat normally and you win comfortably

Glad the chase is less than 100 as I think we would have lost chasing 120+

Hopefully wrap this innings up before close - anything less than 400 should be straightforward but 450 plus would be very interesting...

I see what you did there - stupid fat fingers

90-0 at tea. Sri Lanka showing some fight here and England need a couple of quick wickets before close. Was Roots innings the highest score by an overseas batman in Sri Lanka?

Don't think there will be any play now due to rain - lead is 185 with 3 days left so as long as the weather doesn't affect things England should wrap this up on day 4
