Sri Lanka records second-highest successful ODI chase to beat England in Tri-series match

Pavan Rathnayake, Avishka Fernando and Dasun Shanaka powered the chase as Sri Lanka completed the second-highest successful ODI pursuit.

  • On Thursday, Sri Lanka scripted a remarkable victory over England in Rawalpindi, chasing down 430 to complete the second-highest successful run chase in ODI history, winning by two wickets.
  • Powered by captain Harry Brook's record-breaking 202 off 114 deliveries, England posted 429/4, establishing the highest one-day international total ever recorded on Pakistan soil.
  • Recovering from 24/2, Sri Lanka relied on Pavan Rathnayake's 130 and matching 97-run knocks from Avishka Fernando and Dasun Shanaka to maintain aggressive momentum throughout the chase.
  • Janith Liyanage sealed the win by hitting a six on the penultimate ball, finishing unbeaten on 61 from just 27 deliveries to guide Sri Lanka past the daunting target.
  • Historically, this performance sits only behind South Africa's 438/9 against Australia in Johannesburg in 2006, while the result leaves England facing pressure in the ongoing tri-series.
