SL 34-5 (6 ovs) vs England 146-9 | SCORECARD

Sri Lanka are collapsing in the Powerplay. Left-hander Wellalage looks to target spinner Jacks. He slashes a short wide delivery from the spinner past point for a four and then laps the next ball for another boundary fine on the leg side.

However, Jacks has the last laugh. Wellalage looks to loft the spinner down the ground but holes out a simple catch to Harry at Brook at mid-on.

Wellalage falls for 10 as Sri Lanka slip to 34/5 in the sixth over.

Jacks has made a huge difference with the new ball, taking 3/14 in three overs bowled in the Powerplay.
