Sri Lanka won the Toss Elected bat first


Toss: Sanga has won the toss and says they will bat first. Same side as the one that played India last time.
Sangakkara: "It's one of the best pitches that we have played on. There shouldn't be any difference between day and night. We will have to bat well and put over 200. I don't want to get ahead of ourselves. India have played well. Recently, they have won some of the bigger games in Sri Lanka. We have done that to them outside Sri Lanka. We will have to play at our best today."
Dhoni: "The batting department has to do a bit more. No one can question the amount of talent we have. The wicket is different here. We have to adapt. It's the mindset more than technique. We have made one change. To bolster the batting. Rohit Sharma comes in for Jadeja."
