England's 429 for 4 still ends in defeat as Sri Lanka chase 430

England posted 429 for 4 against Sri Lanka in the ODI tri-series match in Rawalpindi on Thursday, yet still lost by two wickets. Harry Brook became the first England batter to score an ODI double century, reaching 200 from 114 balls before finishing on 202 from 116 deliveries. Sri Lanka chased the target with one ball remaining after recovering from 24 for 2.

Pavan Rathnayake scored 130 and Dasun Shanaka made 97 in Sri Lanka's chase. Janith Liyanage hit the winning six off the penultimate ball after Asitha Fernando denied Josh Tongue a hat-trick in the final over. The 430-run chase was the second-highest successful pursuit in ODI history.

Brook's innings included 21 fours and 10 sixes, breaking Shubman Gill's record for the fastest ODI double century by three balls. England had won their previous three bilateral ODI series before this defeat.
