England captain Eoin Morgan wants his side to keep their concentration when they continue their one-day international series against Sri Lanka at The Oval on Wednesday

Eoin Morgan's men are 1-0 up with two to play in the five-match campaign after rain just four overs into their innings stopped them building on a good bowling display in the third ODI at Bristol on Sunday June 26,2016

England and Sri Lanka played out a thrilling tie in last week's first ODI at Trent Bridge before the hosts stormed to a 10-wicket win in the second match of the series at Edgbaston.

It all leaves England with work still to do if they are to win the series, following their 2-0 victory in the preceding three-Test campaign against Sri Lanka, and they could face further frustration at The Oval if rain forecast for south London duly arrives at Surrey's headquarters ground

Jason Roy's 162 clinched a one-day series win over Sri Lanka on Thursday.But he fell five agonising runs short of Robin Smith's 23-year record 167, which he made against Australia at Edgbaston.

Jason Roy thrilled the England fans scoring 162 Runs in 118 Balls with 13 fours and 3 sixes before being bowled by Nuwan Pradeep.

It was his second century in three ODIs.

England captain Eoin Morgan Morgan saw his side reach their revised target of 308 to beat Sri Lanka with 11 ball remaining in a rain-hit game.

Earlier Sri Lanka had amassed 305-5 off their alloted 42 overs, reduced from 50 by the persistent Oval drizzle with Kusal Mendis top scoring with 77.


The 25-year-old, whose man of the match display helped England to a six-wicket win and an unassailable 2-0 lead with just one game left in Cardiff on Saturday, was annoyed for getting out so close to the end of the game.

But he admitted he had little idea that he was close to overtaking Smith while at least still setting a new highest ODI score by an England batsman at The Oval.

"I didn't know about the record and I am still proud of being second on the list," he said.
