Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bat against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup match at the Sher-e-bangla stadium in Mirpur.
Rubel and Arafat Sunny come in for Shafiul and Razzak in Bangladesh squad while Senanayake makes a comeback for Sri Lanka as Chandimal and Malinga are rested.
On a rampaging run with three wins in as many matches, table-toppers Sri Lanka will look to continue their unbeaten streak when they take on a demoralised Bangladesh in the inconsequential one-dayer of the Asia Cup cricket tournament.
Four-time champions, Sri Lanka cruised into the finals of the Asia Cup, riding on their invincible run in the tournament where they defeated Pakistan, India and Afghanistan in their last three matches.
