England have called up Dan Lawrence for Sunday's deciding ODI against Sri Lanka. Jos Buttler ruled out with hamstring injury. Jordan Cox in line to replace him in the XI and keep.

Sam Hain reaches his second Championship ton of the summer, and passes 1,000 runs. Warwickshire turning the screw at Edgbaston. Amazingly, that is just Warks' fifth hundred of the season - proper team effort.

Like Jonathan Trott as a choice for the Lions. Traditional, with a bit of edge. Lions is important atm as prep for Test cricket and esp ODIs. Tom Banton is opening the batting for England tomorrow, having played one 50-over match in 6 years. Need a bridge telegraph.co.uk/football/202…

Jonathan Trott has been appointed England Lions head coach for the winter tours of the Windies (ODI/T20 in Nov), South Africa (red-ball and ODI in Dec) and Sri Lanka (red-ball and ODI in Feb/March). Had done the job v SL this month after Flintoff left. Strong appointment

Luke Hollman was the hero of Middlesex’s MetroBank semi-final win, and will play in the final tomorrow.
Less than two months ago he was involved in a horrendous crash on a Lime bike that left him needing 35 stitches. His message? Wear a helmet telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2026…

Lancashire lose to Kent, their 8th defeat in 10 in a miserable Championship season. They haven't made 200 since June, or 300 since April. Daniel Gidney is leaving as CEO this year, but is that enough change? telegraph.co.uk/gift/4cb3411…
