Pitch Report: Same pitch that was used for the first game. It has dried up with the sun coming out, and there are a few cracks which will keep the spinners and seamers interested. I think the batters need to change the way they bat against spin, they need to come onto the front foot. Plenty of runs to be scored but one has to be patient, says Athar Ali Khan.

Chaya Mughal: We were actually looking to bowl first looking at the conditions. It is a big opportunity for us, we'll give it our best as we have nothing to lose. Our goal has been to play good cricket, specially since we will be against quality sides like India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. We've also worked on our fitness knowing the weather conditions we will be up against.

Chamari Athapaththu: We'll bat first. I'm pretty confident with my batting unit although we struggled yesterday. We lost a couple of wickets early, we need to improve in that area and we should be good. One change for us.

Sri Lanka 6 for no loss in the first over.
