England 強くたたくs Sri Lanka in 3rd T20 and sweeps series

SOUTHAMPTON, England (AP) - England 調印(する)d a clean sweep in the Twenty20 series against Sri Lanka with a 強くたたくing 89-run victory at the Rose Bowl on Saturday.

Dawid Malan returned to form with a classy 76 from 48 balls after 選び出す/独身-人物/姿/数字 得点する/非難する/20s in the 支援する-to-支援する 勝利,勝つs at Cardiff. With just one fifty in his last seven innings, the world No. 1-階級d T20 batsman sparkled in a knock 含む/封じ込めるing five fours and four sixes after 存在 促進するd to open the batting.

Jason Roy's tight hamstring led to a batting 改造(する) and Malan and Jonny Bairstow, who made 51 off 43 配達/演説/出産s, put on 105 in 11.4 overs, before Dushmantha Chameera's career-best 4-17 制限するd England to 180-6.

Sri Lanka 最終的に capitulated to 91 all out in 18.5 overs and it lost the series 3-0.

In what has been a 頻発する 主題 of the series, Sri Lanka 欠如(する)d 得点する/非難する/20ing 選択s and England was collectively excellent with the ball, David Willey taking 3-27 while fellow left-armer Sam Curran collected two wickets.

Malan was shoulder-船d to the 床に打ち倒す by Binura Fernando while 試みる/企てるing a quick 選び出す/独身 and while there were no cross words between them, the England batsman clipped the left-arm seamer off his toes for the first six.

Isuru Udana had a forgettable introduction, sending 負かす/撃墜する four wides in a 10-ball over as England racked up 48 in the powerplay, with Bairstow mixing some 農業の 一打/打撃s with more 権威のある 運動s.

Bairstow went to a 41-ball fifty before playing around Udana's yorker to be bowled as Sri Lanka made a belated 打開 in the 12th over, but Malan reached his half-century from only 30 配達/演説/出産s, his 12th 50-加える 得点する/非難する/20 in just 27 T20 innings.

Malan then belted Wanindu Hasaranga for two 非常に高い 脚-味方する sixes in a 15th over that 産する/生じるd 18 runs, but from a position of 143-1, England lost five wickets in 23 合法的な balls as thoughts of a 200-加える total 消えるd.

It was a masterclass in death bowling from Chameera as he 変化させるd his pace and lengths to bamboozle several England batsmen in a 小型の-崩壊(する), but a 181 的 was always likely to be daunting for a 味方する that made 129 and 111 at Sophia Gardens, where Sri Lanka 設立する 境界s hard to come by.

While Danushka Gunathilaka caressed the first ball of the reply through cover for four, David Willey had his 復讐 すぐに afterwards when an 辛勝する/優位 was pouched by Malan at second slip.

Chris Woakes, in for the 残り/休憩(する)d 示す 支持を得ようと努めるd, had his first T20 wicket since November 2015 when Kusal Perera's 主要な 辛勝する/優位 was taken by Liam Livingstone, running in from 深い midwicket to take a low, 飛び込み catch. Sri Lanka lurched to 29-3 in the fifth over when Kusal Mendis 試験的に nicked off to Willey.

From the 先行する ball, Mendis deposited Willey over the rope, while Oshada Fernando did likewise to Jordan but it was a frenetic stay from Sri Lanka's No. 3, who was 結局 put out of his 悲惨 for 19 from 27 balls when a 主要な 辛勝する/優位 off Curran 宙返り飛行d to gully.

Dasun Shanaka was run out に引き続いて a smart 選ぶ up and flat throw from Billings at long-on, with the 令状ing on the 塀で囲む in the afternoon 日光 by this 行う/開催する/段階.

They 避けるd setting a new (判断の)基準 for the lowest T20 得点する/非難する/20 in their history -- which remains 82 against India in February 2016 -- but any hope of a surprise victory had long since 消えるd.
