Sri Lanka have won the toss and chose to bowl first against West Indies in the final game of the Super Six phase of the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier.
While the Lions are yet to lose a game in the series, the West Indies have had a far-from-desirable tournament in Zimbabwe.
A disappointing showing in the Super Six stage has meant the two-time champions will miss out on participating in the ODI World Cup for the first time in their history.
Sri Lankan skipper Dasun Shanaka assured that the team doesn’t intend on taking the game lightly, and will “give hundred percent against a quality side”.
Sri Lanka (Playing XI) - Pathum Nissanka, Dimuth Karunaratne, Kusal Mendis (WK), Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka, Sahan Arachchige, Dasun Shanaka (C), Dushan Hemantha, Maheesh Theekshana, Matheesha Pathirana, Dilshan Madushanka.
West Indies (Playing XI) - Brandon King, Johnson Charles, Keacy Carty, Shai Hope (C/WK), Nicholas Pooran, Shamarh Brooks, Kyle Mayers, Roston Chase, Kevin Sinclair, Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein.
