Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for the 2nd ODI of the England vs Sri Lanka ODI Series 2026 between ENG vs SL to be played in Headingley.
Just like the T20I series, England hammered Sri Lanka in the first ODI as well and recorded an easy win by 89 runs. Though the visitors showed a little fight with the ball, but it wasn’t enough. Will Jacks had an incredible day.
He scored a vital 46* off 47 balls to take his team to a competitive total. Then, he backed it up with a 5/22, taking his maiden ODI fifer. England have earned a 1-0 lead and will look to seal the series win.
The second ODI will start at 5 PM IST on Thursday at Headingley in Leeds. It has been four consecutive innings on this tour that Sri Lankan batters didn’t have an individual half-century. That has been a story for them so far. They would be keen to change that, and level the series.
