England, riding high on momentum, will be determined not to take their foot off the pedal.

Preview

England will take on Sri Lanka in the third and final Test of the series at the Kennington Oval in London, starting Friday, September 6. With the series already in the bag after two commanding victories, England will be eager to wrap things up with a clean sweep. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka, having been outclassed so far, will look to salvage some pride by finishing the series with a win.

Pitch Report

The average score here in the first inning is 339, and the team that bats first has a better win ratio. However, this venue has a history of producing slightly challenging conditions for the batters, as the fast bowlers will enjoy bowling here. Hence the toss will be important, and batting first might be an ideal choice.
