COLOMBO, Jan 26, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Sri Lanka's five-year unbeaten home series ODI run faces its stiffest test on Tuesday, with England levelling the series 1-1 and Joe Root again the key obstacle. Sri Lanka know the equation only too well. Dawson believes that depth could be a trump card with the T20 World Cup looming, which Sri Lanka will co-host with India. The Sri Lanka tour is a dress rehearsal for the World Cup for England. "Hopefully we can win the last game, build some confidence, compete well in the T20 series coming up and head into the World Cup on a high."
