Sri Lanka won the toss and opted to bat first in the third ODI of the three-match series against Bangladesh on Tuesday in Pallekele.

The three-match series stands level at 1-1, setting up a decisive clash in Pallekele.

Bangladesh, buoyed by their 16-run win in the second ODI in Colombo, will look to build on the momentum and secure their first ODI series win in Sri Lanka since 2017.

Taskin, who missed the second match due to fitness concerns, backed into the pace attack, replacing Hasan Mahmud.
