5.20pm: So, England have claimed the Tests, 2-0 up with one to play; they are also 8-0 up in the 'Super Series'. Sri Lanka have belatedly arrived in the contest, however, and as Mathews said, they have some building blocks to take with them to Lord's. The whole points system will look a bit redundant if they go 12-0 down, with another 12 points on offer during the one-dayers... But anyway, that's something for the coming weeks. I'll leave you with Gnasher's report, and there'll be plenty more to come on the site. From myself, Gnasher and Miller, it's toodle pip. Bye!

5pm: Here we go with the post-match talky talk, starting with Angelo Mathews: "Congratulations to Alastair for reaching 10,000, Rangana Herath for 300 wickets and Jimmy Anderson for his 450th. It's been a tough couple of weeks for us, unfortunately we didn't bat well in the first innings, we showed a better effort in the second. We had a brilliant first day, I thought it was a decent wicket to bat on but we dropped Moeen Ali and Chris Woakes, started off poorly and carried it on with our batting. [Anderson and Broad] Especially in these conditions, they are world-class bowlers but we showed our character in the second innings and have some positives to take to Lord's. We talked about the Sri Lankan fight, we've lost that in the past couple of weeks but we brought it back in the second innings. Chandimal, Rangana, Kaushal Silva, they showed a lot of skill and character. [Herath 300] He's been amazing over the last six-seven years, a greats servant for Sri Lankan cricket, taking the bowling load after Murali retired, and a great player for us."

England captain Alastair Cook: [Boundary to go to 10,000] "Don't think it whistled, think it trickled over. The game is not about personal milestones, it's about the team effort. But it's been a real special day, nice to have my family here to see it. It's the 7 o'clock nets with Goochie, all the hard work that goes into it. There's always questions to be asked, no matter how many runs you have behind you, the next innings is most important. It does mean a lot but couldn't do it without the support of my family and team-mates. Credit to SL, they played a lot better in the second innings, they found the pitch more to their liking. Shows how hard you have to work for Test match wins. [Bowl first?] With 500 on the board, I think we made the right decision. Thought it might have gone up and down a little bit more, Jimmy's 5-50 on a slow wicket, shows he's a genius. It's a tough bowling attack to face and I'm glad I can captain them. [Moeen innings] A brilliant hundred, that's the talent he's got - must be hard for Mo, when he bats three-four for Worcs. But it makes the job hard for the selectors. A very special day for me and for the side."

James Anderson is named Man of the Match: [Trip from WI to India alongside Cook in 2006] "It is a long time ago, it's been a pretty up-and-down journey since then, happy for Alastair to pass the milestone. He's a frustrating guy to bowl at in the nets, so I know what opposition attacks are going through, but it's a fantastic achievement. Wickets are wickets, doesn't matter what pitch you play on, got to try and put the ball in the right area. I thought Moeen's knock was outstanding, put us in the position to win, and I'm slightly surprised to be standing here. The pitch offered enough in the first innings and then as it got flatter we had to be patient, be more defensive, put the pressure on. You've got to make the most of it when you are in rhythm, when you're not it can be a struggle. Steven Finn has just got to persevere and it will come. The squad's fantastic at the moment and you try and make the most oft he good times."

4.58pm: England have named an unchanged squad for the Lord's Test. They've already won the series but won't be making any big changes.

Peter: "Compton must be sure of his place to deprive his captain of the 50!" Maybe he already knew...

4.45pm: England trot to their modest target, just quickly enough to get a bead on under clear Durham skies. Still a four-day finish but it took a little longer than many expected after Sri Lanka were made to follow on first thing yesterday morning. The tourists can take some encouragement from Dinesh Chandimal's hundred, as well as fifties for Kaushal Silva, Angelo Mathews and Rangana Herath (yay!), as well as the fact they made England bat again; but this has still been a fairly one-sided match and England will head to Lord's eyeing a series whitewash. Moeen Ali laid the most significant plank with the bat and then James Anderson took eight wickets - but who's going to get MOM? We'll find out at the presentations shortly.

Milinda Siriwardana replaces Eranga

"Bring Jos Buttler back into the team as a batsman." Also a possibility, Nigel Short, although Buttler's only just back from the IPL and probably needs to play some #propercricket before he gets another crack in Tests

Nope, Compo's not interested in finishing this yet. He's happy having centre-wicket practice

Eight needed. Is Compo the man?

Here's Shan Fastian: "OKAY England YOU WIN. JUST FINISH THIS ONE QUICKLY DON'T BE MORE MONDAYISITIC." Mondayisitic? Well, there's your word for the day

Changes at both ends, Shaminda Eranga to start a new, er, spell

Eusha: "Who is Compton's alternative though? Do the English have a sound number 3 after all? Compton doesn't look compose enough to be a number 3." Erm, well... Ballance, Bell, Vince, Westley, Borthwick? Bring in Robson and bat Hales at No3? But I'm sure we can save this debate for another day
