Heavy rain postpones England's run chase in the fifth ODI against Sri Lanka.

England's run chase in the fifth one-day international against Sri Lanka has been postponed until Thursday due to rain in Pallekele.

The hosts were bowled out for 239 earlier on Wednesday before heavy showers set in.

Chris Woakes starred with the ball for England, taking six wickets for the loss of 47 runs.

England are currently 1-3 down in the seven-match series.
