Jamie Smith played a pivotal role in guiding England to their first innings score of 358 in the ongoing Old Trafford Test match. Smith scored his maiden international century and helped England take a first innings lead of 122 runs.
Ian Bell has played for England from 2005 to 2015 and will now be part of the opposition camp for the England vs Sri Lanka Test series. The series will feature three Test matches and will kick start on August 21 in Manchester.
New Zealand have made some valuable additions to their coaching set-up ahead of the ODI World Cup in India.
Bell, batting on 137, was adjudged run-out amid an on-field confusion about the ball touching the boundary rope for a four.
Bell has scored 7727 runs, including 22 hundreds, at an average of 42.69 in 118 Test matches while in the ODIs, he has 5,416 runs in 161 matches.
Sachin Tendulkar took to Twitter to draw comparisons between England youngster Ollie Pope and the side's 118-Test veteran.
Bell says playing cricket behind closed doors is "hard to imagine" and "not ideal" but players will have to get used to it for the foreseeable future.
