Around 38 overs are still remain in this day in which I think surely Sri Lanka will lose all wickets and this match will end on the 4th day. Sri Lanka needs 207 runs to win this game, and to make this for them is like impossible. By the way, for the first time I have seen not many people in the ground. In the some parts the sittings are empty otherwise in the other days, always this stadium is full.
After watching Sri Lanka's first innings performance, we were sure that the Sri Lankan team was going to be beaten for sure. Because the England team collected 427 runs in the first innings. On the other hand, Sri Lanka's collection was only 196 runs. England team took a huge lead of 231 runs. If Sri Lanka could have managed to score 350+ in the first innings, the match might have been competitive. In the first innings, the performance of the Sri Lankan bowlers as well as their batsmen was very poor.
However, the performance of the Sri Lankan batsmen in the second innings was good enough. The team managed to collect 292 runs. 3 Sri Lankan batsmen have scored half centuries. But no batsman can play big innings.
Sri Lanka are weak as usual in the Test format. Especially the performance of the batsmen is very erratic. This is why the team failed to do well in both matches against England. I think we will see the defeat of Sri Lanka as usual in the third Test match at the Oval.
