Captain Eoin Morgan scored a sublime 75* off 83 deliveries, and stitched an unbroken 140-run partnership with Joe Root (68*) to guide England to an 8-wicket win with 7 overs to spare in the second ODI against Sri Lanka and seal the 3-match series with a 2-0 lead.
Sam Curran's maiden fifer helped England restrict Sri Lanka to 241-9. England barely broke a sweat as they overhauled the target in 43 overs.
Morgan walked in after Jason Roy fell for a brisk 60. The skipper looked in fine form as he tormented the Lankan army with shots across the park. Leading from the front, he raced to 49 with a maximum off Wanindu Hasaranga and then sneaked a cheeky single to complete his 50. His 75* was studded with eight boundaries and one maximum. Morgan also scored the winning runs, pulling Binura Fernando for a boundary to seal the victory.
Following the series triumph, Morgan said, "Nice to score some runs and make a contribution to a series win...Still don't think I'm striking it that well but nice to get some time in the middle."
