Sophie Ecclestone, Freya Kemp and Issy Wong starred with the ball while Alice Capsey made a fine 44 in guiding England to a five-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in their opening Group B match of the women's T20 event in 2022 Commonwealth Games at Edgbaston.

After the bowlers restricted Sri Lanka to 106/9 from their 20 overs, England were in trouble when they lost their openers in the first four overs. But Alice, with the help of stand-in captain Nat Sciver and then Maia Bouchier, got England over the line in chase of 107 in 17.1 overs.
