Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to field first against England in the 3rd Test being played at the London Oval.
England, who already have an unassailable 2-0 series lead after routing the West Indies 3-0 earlier this season, are bidding for their first home Test campaign clean sweep since 2004, when Michael Vaughan oversaw seven wins from seven.
England have replaced Matthew Potts with left-arm quick Josh Hull in their starting XI for the third Test against Sri Lanka. Known for bowling over 90mph, Hull took five wickets across two innings for England Lions against the touring Sri Lankan side in their only warm-up game.
Sri Lanka have also made few changes to the team with Kusal Mendis returning in place of Nishan Madushka. They have also opted for a pace-heavy attack with Prabath Jayasuriya sitting out for Vishwa Fernando.
England XI for Oval Test: Dan Lawrence, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope (c), Joe Root, Hary Brook, Jamie Smith, Chris Woakes, Gus Atkinson, Olly Stone, Josh Hull, Shoaib Bashir
Sri Lanka XI for Oval Test: Dimuth Karunaratne, Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, Angelo Mathews, Dinesh Chandimal, Dhananjaya de Silva (c), Kamindu Mendis, Milan Rathnayake, Vishwa Fernando, Lahiru Kumara, Asitha Fernando
