England is teetering on the edge of a series-clinching victory over Sri Lanka in the second Test at Lord's, following the pivotal wicket of Dimuth Karunaratne just before lunch on Day 4.

Sri Lanka, tasked with chasing a world-record 483 runs, reached lunch at 136-4, still requiring an additional 347 runs for victory.

The day began with Sri Lanka at 53-2, but nightwatchman Prabath Jayasuriya fell early, edging Chris Woakes to second slip. A resilient 55-run stand between Karunaratne and Angelo Mathews gave some hope to the visitors before Karunaratne’s dismissal for 55.
