Dhaka: Sri Lankan on Thursday won the toss and elected to bat against Pakistan in Asia Cup 2012.
Sri Lankan captain Mahela Jayawardene said that runs on the board would be a good thing and that was still an open tournament. He said they need to tighten up in a few areas. “Lasith comes back, Kapugedera is left out. We are going in with five bowlers,” he said.
Misbah-ul-Haq, Pakistan skipper, said; “We have added Hammad Azam who will give us more options with medium pace, he is basically a batsman. We have to pick ourselves as a batting unit.”
