Lasith Malinga is injured and Angelo Mathews will lead Sri Lanka.
Angelo Mathews: “Malinga is unfit and won’t play today. In the last game, we did not do that well. Hopefully, we can pick our game today. The wicket really looks like a good track for batting. Malinga misses out and Thisara Perera comes in.”
Mashrafe Mortaza: “We will bat first. The track does not seem to have much grass. In the earlier matches, there was a decent covering of grass. Hopefully, we can get a good total. There can be dew as well. It is a pressure game and hopefully, we can cope with it.”
Bangladesh won the toss and have opted to bat first

Pitch report –
The pitch now looks good enough to assist the spinners more. The grass is still there, but most of it has been shaved. It looks a good sign for the batsmen and might well assist the spinners reckon Rameez Raja and Athar Ali Khan at the pitch analysis.
