South Africa captain Temba Bavuma won the toss and elected to field first against Sri Lanka in a Group 1 match of Super 12 stage in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium here on Saturday.
Sri Lanka skipper Dasun Shanaka said that they are playing with an unchanged eleven. "We have played a couple of games, so the ball might keep low. Bowlers and batters have been exposed to this wicket before, so that might be an advantage for us. We have planned after that loss against SA, so hopefully we'll be able to execute them today."
