Virat wins toss again, invites Sri Lanka to bat first

New Delhi: Carrying on his impressive run of toss on this tour, Indian skipper Virat Kohli invited the hosts to bat first and will look forward to add nine wins in nine matches against the Sri Lankan side.

India have decided to drop Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur from the starting line-up and the duo will be replace by KL Rahul and Axar patel.

While, Sri Lanka have made host of changes with Sekkuge, Thisara, Shanaka and Udana all set to feature in the final encounter of the one and half month long tour.

India had earlier whitewashed Sri Lanka in both Test and ODI series during the ongoing tour and one win here would mean complete series whitewash.

India XI: Rohit, Rahul, Kohli(c), Pandey, Jadhav, MS Dhoni(w), Bhuvneshwar, Kuldeep, Bumrah, Chahal, Axar

SL XI: N Dickwella, WU Tharanga, D Munaweera, A Priyanjan, A Mathews, D Shanaka, S Prasanna, NTLC Perera, A Dananjaya, L Malinga, I Udana
