Toss Zimbabwe opt to bowl vs Sri Lanka

Zimbabwe won the toss and chose to chase in the second T20I at Khettarama, their captain Sikandar Raza expecting the pitch to get better as the match wears on. Sri Lanka captain Wanindu Hasaranga said he would have batted first anyway.

Zimbabwe have not made a change to the side that narrowly lost the first T20I. Brian Bennett remains in the top order.

Sri Lanka have made one change however, swapping out round-arm seamer Nuwan Thushara for Dilshan Madushanka.

The weather in Colombo has been fine for the last several days. There was no signs of rain interrupting, at the toss.
