Sri Lanka win toss and bowl first as England seek consolation win
England reshaped their XI after Overton injury ahead of final match.
Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bowl first in the ongoing match. England made one change with Baker recalled to the side. Jamie Overton was ruled out with a quad injury before the game. The tourists are aiming for a consolation victory after losing the series. Baker's inclusion strengthens England's bowling options on a surface that is expected to assist seam movement. Overton's absence removes a key all-round option from the visitors' lineup. The match represents England's final opportunity to finish the tour on a positive note.

Overton's quad injury arrived at the worst moment for England, stripping them of the one player who could have offered both middle-order resistance and fourth-seamer support on a surface that Sri Lanka clearly believe will help bowlers early.
