What TV channel is England v Sri Lanka Cricket World Cup 2023 match on? UK time, TV coverage and live stream
Check out how to watch England v Sri Lanka in the Cricket World Cup 2023, including TV and radio coverage, UK time and our key player to watch.
It's win or bust for England, as they take on Sri Lanka in the first of five must-win matches to qualify for the semi-finals.
2019 ODI World Cup champions, 2022 T20 World Cup champions, the only team to ever hold both titles at the same time, and yet England are on the brink of elimination. Rarely have tides turned so quickly against a side considered to be the team of a generation.
England have won one and lost three of their first four group stage matches, and in effect, now must win all their remaining games to make the semis. There is a chance you can qualify with five wins and four losses from your nine group games, but it's not a position you want to be in.
Sri Lanka should be beaten, but they've been in good shape with the bat so far this tournament and against an England team shot of confidence, it's anyone’s guess as to what we're about to see in Bengaluru.

England v Sri Lanka key player to watch
Jos Buttler (England)
Crunch times call for crunch players. Buttler is arguably England's greatest white-ball player of all time, and his legacy will not be harmed regardless of the outcome of this World Cup. He has achieved too much for that to be the case. Nevertheless, England need their captain to perform, and they need it now.
