Chandimal century crushes England: 3rd ODI (Lords)

Dinesh Chandimal's unbeaten 105 guided Sri Lanka to a resounding 6-wicket victory against England, giving the tourists a 2-1 lead in the five-match series.

Sri Lanka, chasing 247, finished on 4-249 with 10 balls to spare. The win was built on a second-wicket stand of 112 between Chandimal and opener Mahela Jayawardene (79).

Earlier, England's total of 7-246, which featured captain Alastair Cook's career-best 119, never looked enough.
