Earlier, on Day 3, Joe Root smashed his 34th Test hundred as England moved into a powerful position. Root equalled Alastair Cook's national record on Thursday and surpassed it after notching up a century in both innings.
His latest century, his seventh at Lord's, was his fastest ever off 111 deliveries before he holed out for 103, the backbone of England's 251 which left Sri Lanka needing a world-record 483 to win.
Having won the first test in Manchester last week, the English side is on track to wrap up a second consecutive series victory this international summer, after a 3-0 win over the West Indies last month.
