Match report
Harry Brook hit a record 202 from 116 balls to push England to 429 for 4 in Rawalpindi.
Sri Lanka still found a way. Needing six from the last two balls bowled by Josh Tongue, Janith Liyanage lifted a six over long-off to finish on 430 for 8. Only South Africa’s 438 against Australia in 2006 is a bigger successful chase in ODI history.
VSH take
One of the great ODI games. It was England’s second straight loss in the tri-series, which shows that even 429 is not safe on flat pitches any more.
