Sri Lanka v Pakistan, 5th ODI, Colombo

Pakistan Bat; Younis, Ajmal Rested

Colombo: Pakistan Misbah-ul-Haq has won the toss, and Pakistan will bat first in fourth ODI against Sri Lanka in Colombo on Monday.

Misbah says 250 is a good total. Two interesting changes. Younis Khan is "rested due to his form". Saeed Ajmal is rested too, making way for Mohammad Sami. Imarn Farhat comes in in place of Younis Khank

Sri Lanka have made a change too: Jeevan Mendis replaces Sjaeewa Weerakoon, who came across as an honest trier but not a strike bowler.

Teams

Sri Lanka: Tillakaratne Dilshan, Upul Tharanga, Mahela Jayawardene (captain), Kumar Sangakkara (wk), Dinesh Chandimal, Lahiru Thirimanne, Angelo Mathews, Thissara Perera, Nuwan Kulasekara, Jeevan Mendis, Lasith Malinga

Pakistan: Mohammad Hafeez, Azhar Ali, Imran Farhat, Asad Shafiq, Misbah-ul-Haq (captain), Umar Akmal, Shahid Afridi, Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), Umar Gul, Mohammad Sami, Sohail Tanvir
