Mathews, Buttler and the uneven pace-spin mix

3-4 England's win-loss record in T20Is versus Sri Lanka. However, in World T20s, they are up 3-1.

72 Runs scored by England in their last five overs, as they galloped from 99 for 3 after 15 to a total of 171. Only three times have they scored more runs in the last five in a T20I: 87 against Afghanistan in the 2012 World T20, 81 against India at Edgbaston in 2014, and 76 against West Indies in 2010. After 15, Sri Lanka were 111 for 5, but they managed 50 off the last five.

66* Jos Buttler's score, his second highest in T20Is, and just one shy of his highest. He reached his fifty off 28, which is the fastest for England in T20Is against Sri Lanka.

73* Angelo Mathews' score, his second highest in T20Is. It was his second 50-plus score in five innings against England: he averages 61.00 against them at a strike rate of 134.55.

278.6 Mathews' strike rate against spin: he scored 21 from seven balls off Adil Rashid, and 18 from seven off Moeen Ali, giving him a total of 39 from 14. Against the England seamers, he scored 34 from 40 balls.

7-96 Figures for England's fast bowlers in the match, in 16 overs; their spinners went for 63 from four overs. Sri Lanka's spinners, on the other hand, performed far better than their seamers: their spinners had combined figures of 3 for 62 off nine overs, compared to none for 103 off 11 for the seamers.

0 Number of times Sri Lanka had lost four wickets within the first three overs in a T20I, before this game. They slumped to 15 for 4 after three, losing Milinda Siriwardana and Lahiru Thirimanne off successive balls. They had lost three within the first three overs only twice, against India in Visakhapatnam earlier this year, and against Australia in the 2007 World T20.

80 The partnership between Mathews and Chamara Kapugedera, Sri Lanka's highest for the fifth wicket in T20Is.

4-28 Chris Jordan's figures, his best in T20Is. His previous best was 3 for 23, against South Africa in Cape Town last month. These are also the best bowling figures for England in WT20 matches.

51 Runs conceded collectively in the four overs bowled by Siriwardana, Thisara Perera, and Dasun Shanaka; an economy rate of 12.75. The other four Sri Lanka bowlers conceded only 114 in 16 overs (ER 7.12).

1 Number of times, in his previous 11 T20I innings, that Jason Roy had topped 40. His 42 here was his second highest in the format, but his overall average in 12 innings is still only 17.41.

123 Runs added by Sri Lanka's Nos. 5-7, the third-highest aggregate by these three batsmen in any T20I innings.
