Pitch Report: Strong wind but it is a steamy day. Same pitch we used a couple of nights ago. Just a spray of water, nothing much done on it.
C Asalanka: He (Hasaranga) s a very familiar face for me, we've played plenty of cricket together. Happy to bat first although we would have bowled first too. One change for us.
