While the players take on drinks, let me mention our colleagues at History of the BBC who have raided the archives and collated this wonderful page, external full of content related to the BBC’s coverage of women’s sport down the years.

You’ll find things like a 17-year-old Charlotte Edwards appearing on Blue Peter and reflections from broadcasting pioneers like Clare Balding, Gabby Logan and Alison Mitchell. There’s a silent film from 1948 right through to short films/packages made in recent years. It’s a real treasure trove of material.

Oh, how's that missed?!

Kaveesha Dilhari somehow survives trying to play Sophie Ecclestone off the back foot as the ball ricochets off her glove and past the stumps for a couple.

A couple of excellent catches in the field today for England. An ever scrutinised aspect of their performance, England's catching has been extremely solid in T20Is this year. They've taken 26 catches, and dropped six with a catch efficiency of 81%.

11 runs from Kemp's first over but England are flying.

That was obscene! Love that!

SL 64-4published at 8.1 overs

Oh, what a shot that is.

Harshitha launches Freya Kemp's first ball for six! That was beautifully struck.

This is the moment Wyatt-Hodge hit her century. I think TMS commentator Katherine Sciver-Brunt enjoyed it!

Oh, well played.

Gibson tests Karunaratne with a short ball but she hangs back in the crease and pulls confidently for four.

And Lauren Bell is being kept busy on the boundary, as the right-handed Harshitha guides the ball elegantly to deep third and evades her diving effort.

Gibson just struggling a bit with her line to the left and right-handed combination.

Nat Sciver-Brunt keeps switching things up with the bowling.

Here's Dani Gibson.

Lauren Bell just can't stop picking up powerplay wickets. She now has 24 wickets in the first six overs in T20Is since the start of 2024. Among pace bowlers in the same timeline, only Iris Zwilling (34 wickets) from Netherlands has more wickets.

In amidst the wickets, Sri Lanka's batters have played some cracking shots but they just can't match England's consistency.

Hansima Karunaratne crunches her first ball through the covers for two but the powerplay well and truly belongs to England.

WinViz is at more than 99% now in favour of England. The hosts' worm is equally as dominant.

This is a great catch from Freya Kemp. Imesha Dulani has absolutely nailed it, crunched it to Kemp who's taken it very cleanly and very well but it's flown to her.

England look to pile on the pressure as they turn to Sophie Ecclestone early.

But the Sri Lanka pair start positively as Dulani paddle-sweeps for three before Harshitha drives gloriously through the covers for four.

Harshitha Samarawickrama gets off the mark with a boundary, driving through the covers.

But that wicket of Chamari Athapaththu was the key one. She had no choice but to be aggressive in this chase, as Sri Lanka's most reliable performer.

Sensational from Danni Wyatt-Hodge! Running over her shoulder, they are the hardest catches to take but she's such an athlete.
