The umpires and the players are out in the middle with Danushka Gunathilaka and Pathum Nissanka all set to open the innings for Sri Lanka. Josh Hazlewood has the new ball in hand and is raring to go. Let's play...

Aaron Finch the captain of Australia says they were looking to bat first as well, but they want to improve on their chasing and have an opportunity to do it in this final game. Informs that Josh Inglis makes his debut and he comes in for Travis Head.

Dasun Shanaka the skipper of Sri Lanka says that they will have a bat first. Adds that the wicket looks decent and the ball will spin in the evening. Mentions that in different games they had different match-winners which is good and he is happy with the team. Informs that they have made three changes to the side.

Russel Arnold is pitchside. He says that the pitch is a fresh one and it is very dry with a lot of cracks around. Mentions that spinners will come into play but batters can still score runs if they are patient. Adds that the captain winning the toss will look to bat first for sure.

Australia (Playing XI) - Aaron Finch (C), David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Josh Inglis (On ODI debut) (In for Travis Head), Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey (WK), Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, Pat Cummins, Matthew Kuhnemann, Josh Hazlewood.

Sri Lanka (Playing XI) - Danushka Gunathilaka (In for Niroshan Dickwella), Pathum Nissanka, Charith Asalanka, Kusal Mendis (WK), Dinesh Chandimal (In for Dhananjaya de Silva), Dasun Shanaka (C), Chamika Karunaratne, Dunith Wellalage, Pramod Madushan (On debut) (In for Wanindu Hasaranga), Jeffrey Vandersay, Maheesh Theekshana.

TOSS - Sri Lanka have won the toss and they have elected to BAT first.

The weather in Colombo has remained kind thus far, and let’s hope the rain stays away from this one as well. Sri Lanka have already clinched the series and hence this is kind of a dead rubber, but we can still expect a cracker of a contest. Stay tuned for the toss and other updates.

Sri Lanka were under the pump while defending a target of 258. But their army of spinners displayed their magic and demolished Australia’s batting lineup. Eventually, the game did go down the wire and Dasun Shanaka held his nerve and guided his side home. We can expect Sri Lanka to make a few changes since they have already secured the ODI series.
