The Bristol pitch was used recently for a few white-ball matches. There was a slight dodginess in the pitch with the spinners and slow bowlers coming into the match. However, we could witness a pitch that is flat as this is an ODI match.

Joe Root has scored two fifties in two matches of this series. He has not been dismissed in this series so far. Root scored a total of 147 runs in the two matches.

Moeen Ali hasn’t got a lot of changes recently for England. He has taken one wicket in two matches and also scored 28 runs.

Dhananjaya de Silva batted beautifully in the previous match and is probably the most technically sound batter in this team. He made 91 runs in this last match.

Wanindu Hasaranga has been an important member of this squad. He has scored 80 runs in this series already and has also taken three wickets.

Dushmantha Chameera has been the stand-out bowler for the Sri Lankan team on this tour. He has picked up three wickets in this series so far and would be looking to add some more to his tally.

Kusal Perera had batted well in the first game scoring a brilliant fifty. He is the most dependable batter on this team.

Jonny Bairstow batted very positively in both the matches but got out after a good start. He scored a 21-ball 43 in the first game and scored 29 runs in the second one. Bairstow would be looking to continue his good form.
