As for the Indians, Washington Sundar, Shivam Dube, Sanju Samson and Khaleel Ahmed are the four guys who will miss out.
This is India’s first match under new head coach Gautam Gambhir, who took over the charge from Rahul Dravid earlier this month.
Here’s what both the captains said at the toss:
Charith Asalanka, Sri Lanka captain: We are going to bowl first. It looks like a pretty good pitch and we want to see how it goes. We are going with 6-5 combination. I want to give every player a specific roles and that;s why we are going with 5 bowlers.
Suryakumar Yadav, India captain: It (the pitch) looks good and it is fine to bat first. The brand of cricket remains the same. The relationship me and him (Gambhir) have had for so many years is special. Dube, Samson, Khaleel and Washington are the four players to miss out. That (World Cup) is history, we start from scratch and it is a new challenge.
Here’s what Saba Karim and Farvez Mahroof said about the Pallekele Pitch:
“The weather looks pleasant. There’s a cool breeze blowing across the ground. The wicket looks good. We had 3 LPL games here and that surface looked different. We see cracks. It might get slower once the ball loses its hardness but come evening it should be good for batting. We expect a lot of runs here,” say Saba Karim and Farvez Mahroof.
