1st Test Day 2 | Highlights | Sri Lanka Tour Of England | 22nd August 2024

On day 2, the Sri Lankan pacers took some early wickets but the England batters fought back later. England were in a spot of bother having lost their top three batters without contributing much, but Joe Root and Harry Brook stitched up an important partnership to rebuild England's innings. Joe Root was dismissed on 42 while Harry Brook scored a pivotal fifty. Jamie Smith later proved his worth by hitting a vital fifty and as a result of his innings, England managed to gain a slender lead of 23 runs by the end of the day.
