After beating Zimbabwe by 5 wickets in the first game, Sri Lanka will be aiming to win the three-match series as they take the field in Pallekele on Tuesday.
Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bat against Sri Lanka on Tuesday. The spectators have not tampered with the combination played in the previous match.
“We will have a bat. The boys did really well in the last game. SL bowled really well at death and we lost a bunch of wickets which took the momentum away from us. We played a lot of positive cricket and We need to take advantage of that. We just need to plug some loopholes. Same team,” said Craig Ervine at the toss.
