Toss Sri Lanka chose to bowl vs Hong Kong
Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bowl against Hong Kong in Dubai as the defending champions look to make it two wins in two in the Asia Cup.
Sri Lanka made one change to the side that registered a comprehensive win over Bangladesh, bringing in spinner Maheesh Theekshana for fast bowler Matheesha Pathirana, opting for just two frontline quicks in Dushmantha Chameera and Nuwan Thushara.
Hong Kong also made one change, with Shahid Wasif coming in as a like-for-like replacement in the middle order for Kalhan Challu.
This is the first time these two teams are facing each other in international cricket.
Hong Kong XI: Zeeshan Ali (wk), Anshy Rath, Babar Hayat, Nizakat Khan, Shahid Wasif, Kinchit Shah, Yasim Murtaza (capt), Aizaz Khan, Ayush Shukla, Ateeq Iqbal, Ehsan Khan
