Tom Curran followed in brother Sam's footsteps against Sri Lanka only for rain to deny England a series clean sweep in the third and final one-day international at Bristol on Sunday . But a huge downpour after Sri Lanka's innings meant the match was abandoned before England's reply could start. Sri Lanka's top order have struggled during the past fortnight, repeatedly losing wickets to the new ball. Woakes, the only change to the England side, struck in his second over when he had Sri Lanka captain Kusal Perera chopping into his stumps for nine. Wanindu Hasaranga had made 20 when a pull off Tom Curran, at 26 three years older than Sam, lobbed gently to Willey at deep square leg, with Sri Lanka now 87-6.
