England and Sri Lanka play the third and final T20I of the series at Emirates Old Trafford in Manchester on Saturday 19 September.
England, led by Harry Brook, are expected to field Aneurin Donald, Jos Buttler, Tom Banton, Jordan Cox and Will Jacks in the top order, with Jamie Overton and Liam Dawson adding balance. Josh Tongue, Sonny Baker and Adil Rashid are in the bowling line-up, and Ben Duckett, Jofra Archer, Saqib Mahmood, Gus Atkinson and James Coles are also in the squad.
Sri Lanka, captained by Charith Asalanka, have Pathum Nissanka, Kamil Mishara, Lahiru Udara and Kamindu Mendis in the batting, with Dasun Shanaka and Wanindu Hasaranga adding all-round strength. Dunith Wellalage, Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera and Eshan Malinga lead the attack.
The balanced surface should reward good stroke-making once batters settle, but conditions may make the start tricky, and early wickets could have a big effect on the final total.
