Toss Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bowl against Pakistan

Sri Lanka captain Chamari Athapaththu opted to bat first against Pakistan in the Asia Cup's second semi-final in Sylhet.

Sri Lanka are going into the match with the same XI that played against Pakistan on Tuesday. Pakistan had beaten Sri Lanka by five wickets in that game.

Pakistan made one change, by bringing in left-arm spinner Nashra Sandhu in place of Sidra Nawaz.

Pakistan are vying for their third Asia Cup final, while it would be Sri Lanka's first if they win.
