Scorecard

England Under 19 needed just 43.2 overs to bowl out Sri Lanka Under 19, to win by 225 runs at Shenley. Overnight, the home team were 199 for 5, and added a further 37 in five overs this morning, to set Sri Lanka an improbable target of 353. They were never in the chase, with only three batsmen reached double figures, and were dismissed for just 132.

Wicketless in the first innings, Stuart Broad picked up five in the second to destroy Sri Lanka's hopes of holding out for a draw. Broad, son of former England cricketer Chris who is now an ICC match referee, ran through the Sri Lankans to return brilliantly economical figures of 12.2 overs 5 for 17. Only Sachith Pathirana offered resistance, with a turgid knock of 39 from 91 balls.

The two sides face eachother in the second 'Test' in three days, on August 9, at Scarborough.
