On a drier pitch with no grass, India bolstered their spin attack by bringing in Axar Patel in place of Shardul Thakur. They won the toss and decided to bat first, which is what they wanted to do against Pakistan as well.

That everybody else pulled up well on a third straight day of cricket augurs well for India in terms of fitness.

Sri Lanka made no changes to the XI that beat Bangladesh in their first Super Four match.

India RG Sharma*, Shubman Gill, V Kohli, KL Rahul, Ishan Kishan†, HH Pandya, RA Jadeja, AR Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, JJ Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj
Sri Lanka P Nissanka, FDM Karunaratne, BKG Mendis†, S Samarawickrama, KIC Asalanka, DM de Silva, MD Shanaka*, DN Wellalage, M Theekshana, CAK Rajitha, M Pathirana
