Sri Lanka opt to bowl vs Zimbabwe
January 17, 2018 11:26 am
Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to field against Zimbabwe in the second match of the Tri-Nation series in Mirpur on Wednesday.
Zimbabwe lost the first match of the competition against hosts Bangladesh but will back themselves against the Lankans due to their latest ODI record.
In July last year, Zimbabwe shocked former world champions Sri Lanka 3-2. Angelo Mathews, who had stepped down as captain after that loss versus Zimbabwe, is back in the saddle once again.
Sri Lanka have much to redeem in this tournament.
Zimbabwe: Hamilton Masakadza, Solomon Mire, PJ Moor (wk), Brendan Taylor, Craig Ervine, Sikandar Raza, Malcolm Waller, Graeme Cremer (capt), Kyle Jarvis, Tendai Chatara, Blessing Muzarabani
Sri Lanka: Upul Tharanga, Kusal Perera, Dinesh Chandimal (wk), Angelo Mathews (capt), Kusal Mendis, Asela Gunaratne, Thisara Perera, Akila Dananjaya, Suranga Lakmal, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera
