With one game in the bag, England will look to continue their dominance at home and hope to get a massive win to claim the series. Sri Lanka on the other hand will bank on the fact that their changes will prove to be the right combination to get their batting in check.

The English fast-bowler Olly Stone is set to make his return after years. He comes in place of Mark Wood into the side as their only change for this match. For Sri Lanka, they have made two changes. The likes of Kusal Mendis and Vishwa Fernando make way for Pathum Nissanka and Lahiru Kumara.
