Moeen Ali bagged the big wicket of Niroshan Dickwella early on day five to give England the perfect start. The England all-rounder picked up two wickets in three deliveries as he also sent back Suranga Lakmal for a duck.

Jack Leach then dismissed Malinda Pushpakumara to complete a 57-run win for England who take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
