Aslanka: We will bat first. I think so, it looks the same as the previous day. There is nothing much different as a captain for this game. Kamindu and Vandersay have been included in place of Hasaranga and Shiraz.
Pitch Report – Russel Arnold: The weather is very warm this afternoon. The wind that is blowing is warm. We have crossed a few strips. The pitch is dry. Very similar to the one we played on a few days ago. The gaps between the cracks are quite wide. There is going to be a lot of rutting. The captain who wins the toss will want to bat first. The most important thing as a batsman is to hit shots in the gaps and score runs, to wear down the opposition team.
