Sri Lanka was eliminated from the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup after host England beat India convincingly yesterday.

A spirited England ended India's unbeaten run in the Cricket World Cup with a 31-run victory in a high-scoring group match to boost their semi-final prospects on Sunday. 

Jonny Bairstow smashed a belligerent 111, Jason Roy returned from a hamstring injury to make 66 and Ben Stokes (79) provided the late burst in England's commanding 337-7 after electing to bat on an Edgbaston featherbed. 

Rohit Sharma smashed his third hundred of the tournament and Virat Kohli his fifth successive half-century but India did not get another significant partnership and finished on 306-5. 

England leapfrog Pakistan to fourth place with 10 points from eight games, while India remain second on 11 from seven matches.

Sri Lanka plays the already out West Indies today.
