Chris Woakes led England's attack with a four-wicket haul as a weakened Sri Lanka were bowled out for 185 in the first one-day international at Chester-le-Street on Tuesday. Woakes, in only his third international in over nine months, finished with excellent figures of 4-18 from his full 10 overs in the first of a three-match series. Sri Lanka's batting had faltered repeatedly during a preceding 3-0 T20 series loss to England and it was no great surprise to see them dismissed with more than seven overs of their innings left after England captain Eoin Morgan won the toss for the 50-over world champions.More Related News
