England have announced their XI for the first ODI:
rUaZak Crawley, Ben Duckett, rUaJoe Root, Jacob Bethell, Harry Brook (c),
Jos Buttler, rUaWill Jacks, Sam Curran, Jamie Overton, Liam Dawson, Adil Rashid.
I wonder if they've ever had a deeper batting line-up than that in an
ODI. Just two seamers and five spinners (if you include Root), which
tells you that they're expecting a typical Sri Lankan pitch.
