Sri Lanka 208/5 in 44.0 Overs | England vs Sri Lanka Live Score Day 2: England look to pile on misery against Sri Lanka – The Times of India

Date:

England vs Sri Lanka Live Score 3rd Test, Day 2: Ollie Pope returned to form on his Oval home ground with a first hundred as England captain on the opening day of the third Test against Sri Lanka. Pope had managed a mere 30 runs in four previous innings since succeeding the injured Ben Stokes as skipper at the start of this series. But when bad light ended play for the day Pope was a run-a-ball 103 not out, with England well-placed on 221-3. Sri Lanka, already 2-0 down in this three-match series, failed to make the most of overcast conditions and a green-tinged pitch after captain Dhananjaya de Silva won the toss. And England should arguably have had another century-maker on Friday, with opener Ben Duckett, not for the first time, giving his wicket away after making 86.
