Sri Lanka Completes Second-Highest ODI Run Chase to Beat England in Tri-Series
Sri Lanka achieved the second-highest successful run chase in ODI history by defeating England by two wickets in Rawalpindi during the Pakistan tri-series. Chasing 430, Sri Lanka's innings featured key contributions from Pavan Rathnayake (130), Dasun Shanaka (97), Avishka Fernando (97), and Janith Liyanage (61 not out), who sealed the win with a six off the penultimate ball. England's Harry Brook scored a record-breaking 202, but his efforts were insufficient as Sri Lanka surpassed India's recent 406-run chase and became the first team to chase over 400 runs away from home.
