England, Sri Lanka and their hosts will face each other twice and the two top-performing teams will then meet in the final on Halloween.

Harry Brook's side are getting some ODI miles under their belt ahead of next year's 50-over World Cup as they look to build on what has been a fantastic year in the format.

Brook and white-ball coach Brendon McCullum have proven a fantastic pairing and turned England's ODI fortunes around – claiming series wins in Sri Lanka, at home to India, and at home to Sri Lanka this year.

The tourists will be desperate to make a winning start to a winter that sees them head on a white-ball tour of Australia before heading to South Africa and Bangladesh.
