According to the beeb, WI now cannot qualify automatically for the 2019 WC, as they can't overtake Sri Lanka in ranking points between now and 30 September, even if they win all four remaining ODIs. Of course, the disparity in world rankings between the two sides, and evidence of this game, suggests that England should win the series - a 4-1 WI win would be a major upset.
