Sri Lanka to bowl first against Afghanistan

Sri Lanka won the toss and put Afghanistan in to bat in their World Cup Pool A match at University Oval in Dunedin on Sunday.
Although the forecast is for fine weather, there is a lot of moisture around following heavy overnight rain and the ball is known to swing at the oval.
"We are playing four seamers so we will look to exploit it," Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews said.
Afghanistan captain Mohammad Nabi said he would also have bowled first.
Both sides have made one change with all-rounder Thisara Perera replacing Nuwan Kulasekera in the Sri Lanka line up and Afghanistan have brought in Dawlat Zadran for Aftab Alam.
Sri Lanka, the 2011 runners up and 1996 champions, lost their opening match in this tournament to New Zealand by 98 runs while Afghanistan, Cup debutants, were beaten by 105 runs first up against Bangladesh.

Sri Lanka - Angelo Mathews (capt), Tillakaratne Dilshan, Kumar Sangakkara (wkt), Mahela Jayawardene, Lahiru Thirimanne, Dimuth Karunaratne, Jeevan Mendis, Thisara Perera, Suranga Lakmal, Lasith Malinga, Rangana Herath
