If it doesn’t rain on the other three days then at least half a day will be recovered by extending play. I can’t see anything but an England win (rain or no rain) and SL not fancying the Manchester conditions.

Fair shout. Then lot will depend on the toss. If Sri Lanka put em in, England will probably bat to score 400 maybe...that leaves em possibly day n half to get 22 wickets ( if comes down to 3 days and a bit).

Recent West Indies v South Africa - 40 wickets in 3 days - with start of 3rd day delayed by rain.

The toss is so key these days.

England win: bat first, unleash Bazball and get big runs on board before the rains arrive.

Sri Lanka win: in between a rock and a hard place. Might not fancy batting first in Manchester conditions, but will also be acutely aware of how Bazball can demoralise them on day 1 of the series. A toss they might not mind losing.
