England and Sri Lanka are set to face off in the third and final Test of their ongoing series. England, already leading 2-0, will be looking to complete a whitewash.

The match will take place at The Oval in London, starting on Friday, September 6. With England’s strong performances in the previous two Tests, Sri Lanka faces a tough challenge to salvage some pride.

Young left-arm fast bowler Josh Hull will make his Test debut. Hull, at just 20 years old, has been given a chance despite limited first-class experience, having taken 16 wickets in 10 matches at an average of 62.75.

England’s middle order, led by Joe Root and Harry Brook, will look to continue their strong form. Skipper Ollie Pope, under pressure after a lean patch with the bat, will be hoping to find his rhythm ahead of England’s next series against Pakistan.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, has struggled to find consistency in the series. They will need their batting lineup to step up if they hope to avoid a whitewash. With England's bowlers in form, Sri Lanka's top order will face a tough challenge.
