England really need to strengthen their batting department as we all had seen in the First ODI, only Joss Buttler and Chris Woakes were amongst the runs. Meanwhile, the likes of Joe Root, Alex Hales and Captain himself need to fire if they want to win rest of the matches.

But England team have the momentum with them after remaining victorious in the test series by 2-0, once their batting will click, then they could easily start winning the matches.

On the other side, Sri Lanka must be happy with their all round performance in their last game, especially after loosing the test series to the host.

Sri Lanka showed that they have quality of players in their side, as the likes of Kusal Perera , Kusal Emdis and Dinesh Chandimal got the start and the their capatin Angelo Matthews had scored brillinat 73 in that game.
