After two washed-out games, Sri Lanka are facing Australia at the Oval in London on Saturday, 15 June.
Sri Lankan captain Dimuth Karunaratne won the toss and elected to field first. Nuwan Pradeep returns for Sri Lanka after his shoulder injury and will partner with Lasith Malinga to tighten up their bowling attack.
As far as Australia is concerned, they are going in with one change as Jason Behrendorff replaces Nathan Coulter-Nile, who is suffering from a stiff body after he picked up a few niggles in the last game. Skipper Aaron Finch said at the toss that he wanted to bowl as well if Australia would have won the toss.
Australia have the upper hand over Sri Lanka in World Cup matches . They have won 7 out of 8 matches while Sri Lanka have managed to win on just one occasion, which was the 1996 World Cup final in Lahore.
