Sri Lanka win the toss and will bat first. Suraj Randiv and Dhammika Prasad are out for Nuwan Kulasekara and Chaturanga de Silva.

The pitch reports says that plenty of runs will be scored here. Its completely a batting track with hardly any grass on it.

Kumar Sangakkara will become the fastest Sri Lankan to score 13000 ODI runs, if he manages to score 82 runs.

Number of records to be made today. Virat Kohli needs 50 runs to become the fastest overall, to score 6000 runs in ODI cricket while Shikhar Dhawan needs 45 more runs to reach 2000 runs.

It rained in the morning but it has gone away. There will be overcast conditions and the rain is not expected to arrive back.

For Sri Lanka Kumar Sangakkara, Dhammika Prasad, Suraj Randiv and Upul Tharanga will be playing their last ODI on the tour.

It would be interesting to know whether he continues to bat at no. 3 or not.

Ambati Rayudu, who scored a swashbuckling century in the last ODI will be aiming to repeat the feat and seal his spot for Australia tour next month.

The highest score at the stadium is 350 by Australia in 2009 which makes the pitch a good batting pitch.

Looking back at the dismal record of India at this ground, they have lost 3 out of four ODIs played here. India last won here against England way back in 2011.

India would be looking forward to win the third ODI and seal the 8th bilateral ODI series against Sri Lanka.
