Sri Lanka has won the toss in a decider match against Bangladesh in Asia Cup on Thursday and elected to bowl first in Dubai of the United Arab Emirates.
After winning the toss Sri Lankan captain Dasun Shanaka said, “We are going to bowl first. It's a used wicket, so chasing will be an important factor.”
On the other hand, Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan said, “We wanted to field first, but that's not in our control. We didn't bat well in the last match, but today is a different day. We have three changes in our team, we have made quite a few changes.”
