BBC iPlayer releases highlights from third England v Sri Lanka ODI

BBC iPlayer's "ODI Cricket" collection now includes highlights from the third One Day International (ODI) between England and Sri Lanka. The episode, running 44 minutes, was first broadcast on 27 September 2026.

The match forms part of a wider 2026 ODI series between the two national sides. BBC iPlayer had already made available comparable highlight packages for the first and second matches in the series, each also around 44 minutes long, offering viewers a condensed look at the key moments rather than full match coverage.

ODI cricket, short for One Day International, is one of the three principal formats of international cricket, alongside Test matches and Twenty20 (T20). It involves a single innings per team played over a fixed number of overs, and series such as this one between England and Sri Lanka are a regular feature of the international cricket calendar.

The highlight episodes are available on demand through BBC iPlayer, allowing audiences who missed the live action to catch up on how each match unfolded in a shorter format. The platform's dedicated section groups all episodes from the series together alongside links to other related programming.

The source material does not include specific scores, individual player performances or team line-ups from the match itself — the available details relate only to the programme's availability and technical information, such as its duration and original broadcast date.
