  2. 'Awesome' Jacks gets Brook's approvalpublished at 20:08 BST 22 September

    England captain Harry Brook: "It wasn't the easiest of surfaces. I said the other day we want to be a team who can adapt to conditions as much as possible.

    "I thought we did that very well today. After about 20 overs, we said 280 was a decent score, and we managed to scrap away to get 260."

    On Will Jacks: "Outstanding player and he has been for many years now. He has been a constant performer in franchise cricket. He has been an awesome player to have in the side."

    On Jamie Overton: "He has been another one, outstanding in T20s and one-dayers. The clarity we had going out on the field was very good. We just knew we had to keep the stumps in play as much as possible."

    On Rehan Ahmed: "He did everything we asked him to do. He gave the ball a bit of a turn and a bit of a rag."

    Sri Lanka captain Kusal Mendis: "I think the bowlers did really well. The middle order struggled a little.

    "We have to do better in second innings. We have to score the runs a little more in boundaries. Unfortunately we couldn't chase 260."

    On debutant Sachindu Colombage: "He controlled the whole game today. When he came to batting he did really well, I'm really happy."

  5. 'A good all-round performance'published at 20:02 BST 22 September

    England's player of the match Will Jacks: "I think it was a really good all-round performance from the team.

    "Happy how we ushered the innings there. We were trying to do things in the right way and trying to get a good score. I think what we have been doing well recently is communicating what the pitch is like.

    "Joe [Root] and Harry [Brook] were saying 275 and 280 was a good score. When I got out there, I found it a bit tricky.

    "We all know in 50-over cricket you have got more time than you think, and we managed to catch up at the end. I go into each game with an open mind, which is quite refreshing and it keeps me relaxed.

    "I like to say so, but I think we were more worried about batting for 50-overs as we lost a few wickets, but it worked in my favour.

    "I think obviously we batted on it and, knowing what it was like, I knew I was going to play a decent role.

    "The time you bowl doesn't bother me now. Harry likes to be as flexible as possible and we are doing good things."

    Sri Lanka have a lot of experience in their team. Whether they have experienced different conditions and are able to win outside of Sri Lanka is the struggle for them.

  7. How's stat?!published at 19:57 BST 22 September

    WIll Jacks averaged 4.3° of turn today, by far the most for any of the four spinners on display today (the other three averaged 2.8°). It's also the most amount of turn Jacks has found in a home ODI in his career.

    Thanks to Kieran Parmley of CricViz for today's stats.

    It was a good toss to win.

    It was always going to turn, and it was always going to be a slow wicket.

    Sri Lanka bowled well, and they hit their areas.

    The partnership of Harry Brook and Joe Root took it away from them.

    At the end, I thought they were in within a shout, but it was just too many.

    On Will Jacks' 5-22 figures...

    They are the second best figures by an English spinner in ODI cricket.

    The only England spinner with a better innings is Vic Marks' 5-20 in Wellington in February 1984.

    As well as Will Jacks has bowled, it is worth talking about his batting. It was a mature innings from him. England talk about adaptability. He did that brilliantly today with the bat.

    England have won this game very comfortably!

    Will Jacks will remember this day out. He is kind of England's sixth bowler in a way, but he is so useful to have.

    A five-fer and the finish for Will Jacks now!

    He wraps up the match for England, dismissing Dilshan Madushanka for a golden duck by knocking back the tail-ender's off stump.

    That's career-best figures of 5-22 for Jacks, who took three wickets in four balls to end the game.

    A strong finish for England, who likely felt they were somewhat under-par with the bat - they win by 89 runs and go 1-0 up in the series.

    That is Will Jacks' best bowling figures in ODI cricket - 4-22. His previous record was 3-22.

    Will Jacks has got another! He has taken four and now there's only one wicket left.

    Make that four for Will Jacks!

    Asitha Fernando heaves at his first delivery without connecting and then launches the second out to a wide long-on.

    Tom Banton is stationed out there and takes the catch calmly.

    England are one away.

    It is never easy when the ball goes straight up.

    Jamie Overton has taken a really good catch there. He has taken it comfortably.

    Dunith Wellalage really did take the game to England.

    When Sri Lanka put England under pressure, they had a foot in the door.

    Jamie Overton makes no mistake! The entertaining innings of Dunith Wellalage comes to an end.

    Into the bucket hands of Jamie Overton!

    Dunith Wellalage's enterprising innings comes to an end and Sri Lanka's hopes likely depart with him.

    The all-rounder toe-ends a skier into the hands of Overton at mid-on.

    A third wicket of the night for Will Jacks.
