England beat Sri Lanka in one-day series:

England showcased a classy all-round play to demolish Sri Lanka by 10 wickets, leveling the one-day series. After a short rain delay England put Sri Lanka in and reduced them to 20-4, with James Anderson (3-24) impressing.

Kumar Sangakkara struck a battling 75 before being last man out as Sri Lanka were dismissed for 174 in 43.4 overs. Captain Alastair Cook hit a wonderful unbeaten 95 and Craig Kieswetter 72 as England - who were delayed briefly by rain - cantered home after 23.5 overs.

England made the most of the seamer-friendly conditions and, having skittled Sri Lanka for 174, Cook and Kieswetter simply blew the tourists away. Cook batted like a man possessed, taking 12 off the first over from Nuwan Kulasekara and playing some majestic drives through the off-side as he comfortably outscored the more naturally aggressive Kieswetter.
