The first ODI between Sri Lanka vs England was called off due to bad weather. Only 15 overs were bowled in the entire contest. England were 95/2 when rain interrupted play and no overs were sent down thereafter. Earlier, After a disappointing Asia Cup tournament, Sri Lanka are hosting England for 5-ODI, 3 Test and 1 T20I series. Some major changes have been made and Angelo Mathews has been left out from the squad. Dinesh Chandimal has been appointed as the limited-overs captain and under his guidance, Sri Lanka will hope to start off with a win. England, on the other hand, will play their first match since the Test series against England, and will hope to continue the winning form.
