Summarised from 2 outlets · 3 reports · Updated 22 Oct, 18:20 · Archive

Sri Lanka successfully chased England's 429 in a two-wicket victory in the ODI tri-series in Pakistan.

Sri Lanka completed the second-highest successful chase in ODI history when they defeated England by two wickets in their tri-series encounter in Rawalpindi. England batted first and reached 429-4, their fourth-highest total ever in the 50-over format. Harry Brook scored 202 from 116 deliveries, the fastest double-hundred in ODI history and the first by an England batter in the format. He was dismissed off the final ball of the innings.

Sri Lanka began poorly, losing two wickets for 24 runs, but were steadied by a 166-run third-wicket partnership between Avishka Fernando (97) and Pavan Rathnayake. Rathnayake went on to score 130 off 106 balls. Dasun Shanaka then struck eight maximums in his 97 from 50 deliveries to keep Sri Lanka's chase on track. The visitors needed eight runs from their final over when Janith Liyanage, who made 50 from 22 balls, hit a six off the penultimate delivery to secure the victory.

England's loss is their second consecutive defeat in the tri-series. They must win their next match to reach the final scheduled for 31 October in Lahore.
