England lost the deciding one-day match of the Royal London series amid controversial circumstances after Sachitra Senanayake ran out Jos Buttler for backing up too far during the home side’s innings.
The act, which left Sri Lanka to chase a modest 220 for victory soured a close series and Buttler was warned by the umpires for having words with Angelo Mathews after Sri Lanka’s captain had been booed all the way to the crease.
