Preview
Before Thursday's news hit, the first ODI had left the contest in an intriguing place. Few felt England had a chance of running down Sri Lanka's 317, but even in defeat, the visitors found a spark named Moeen Ali, then Ravi Bopara took over from their opener's fluidic brutality. Those knocks were each lone hands, of sorts, but England need something more cohesive. If more of their sticks rub together the right way, their World Cup hopes might just catch fire.
Match Stats
1.If Steven Finn is not fit, Ravi Bopara will again go into the match as England's most successful seam bowler with 37 ODI wickets
