West Indies won the toss and opted to bat first at a sunny R. Premadasa Stadium . The track used for this match was the same as the one used
in the first ODI, and was expected to get slower and more susceptible to
turn as the match wore on.
The visitors made three changes to their XI. Allrounders Jason Holder
and Andre Russell, and wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin were all unavailable.
Batsman and part-time offspinner Jason Mohammed and Jermaine Blackwood
were handed an opportunity. Also in the XI was medium pace bowler Ravi
Rampaul, picked for the first time since October 2014.
Holder was suspended for this game for maintaining a slow over-rate
on Sunday,Russell was ruled out by an abdominal strain he sustained in
the previous match, and Denesh Ramdin has picked up a stomach illness.
Marlon Samuels led the team for the first time in his absence, while
Andre Fletcher was likely to take the gloves.
Sri Lanka swapped Dinesh Chandimal for Danushka Gunathilaka in the
middle order. Chandimal returned after serving a suspension for an
altercation with Ishant Sharma in August.
Colombo had been having daily evening rains over the past week, and
there was a chance bad weather could also interrupt this match.
