England will open their Super 8 campaign at the ongoing 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup with a crucial clash against the co-hosts Sri Lanka team at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium on Sunday, February 22. 

Both teams are placed in Group 2 alongside the New Zealand and Pakistan, with the top two sides progressing to the semi-finals.

SL vs ENG's tournament so far in T20 World Cup

England, led by Harry Brook, had a mixed journey in the group stage. They started with a narrow win over Nepal but suffered a setback against the West Indies. 

However, England responded strongly when it mattered most, beating Scotland and then securing a 24-run victory over Italy. Those back-to-back wins helped England finish second in Group C and book their place in the Super 8 stage.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka began with a 20-run victory against Ireland and followed it up with a dominant 105-run win over Oman. 

The highlight of their campaign came against Australia, where they chased down 182 in style. Opener Pathum Nissanka played a brilliant unbeaten knock of 100 runs to seal an impressive eight-wicket win and confirm qualification.

Although Sri Lanka lost their final group match to Zimbabwe by six wickets in Colombo, the defeat did not affect their chances.

 In this article, let's take a look at the head-to-head record between England and Sri Lanka in T20Is.
