Analysis:

Eoin Morgan’s men walk in the ODI series with a major triumph, winning the T20I series 3-0 against Sri Lanka. Given that it’s a high scoring pitch, England’s batting order looks strong with Jonny Bairstow, Jason Roy and Joe Root being crucial for the side. With the presence of many ODI specialists in the squad, England will aim to amplify their dominance in the ODI series as well, and walk away with another trophy.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka will aim to wash out the humiliating defeat by making a comeback in the ODI series. Dasun Shanaka’s role will be crucial for the team as Riverside Ground is often regarded as batsmen’s paradise. However, match-winning contributions from all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga and pacers Isuru Udana and Dushmantha Chameera will be equally important if the Lankans are willing to prove themselves and make a comeback.
