The day full of belongs to Sri lankans because the batsman and bowlers both dominated in the match. In batting openers had given a good start of around 130 runs which helpful to team to have a good target on the board and so they finished the innings by giving a target of 367 runs which was looking mountain for england and so they wanted a good start but it does not come true and they lose their wicket in just 4 runs and after two overs the scorecard for england was 4 runs led 3 wicket and the full pressure on moheen Ali and Ben stokes.But both of them continue the innings by playing slowly but they also does not help team to take to victory.
By the way Sri Lanka loss the series by 3-1 then also they enjoy the win as they know they had beat england by huge margin.A bright smile on the face of Eoin Morgan as he collects the trophy. Well, it was a dead rubber and England played it like one. None of their players turned up today barring Ben Stokes who battled his way with injury and cramps to contribute 67 runs. This thumping victory will inject the much-needed self-belief in the Sri Lankan team. But they have won dead rubbers in the past and have failed to deliver when it matters.
Dickwella innings of 95 runs help Sri Lanka to have a good total on the board. He gave good starts for the team and also he scored 7 century in his 40 innings and so he has been appointed as man of the match.

Dinesh chandimal also scored a runs for his team and mostly all the players of Sri Lanka have dominated runs from their bat to have a good target for england.
