DAMBULLA, Sri Lanka (AP) — Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara has won the toss and elected to bat first in the tri-series final against India Saturday at Rangiri Dambulla Stadium.

India has strengthened its batting lineup recalling Rohit Sharma in place of spin bowling all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja.

Sri Lanka retained the same team that beat India in their second league match.

India is looking to win a fifth final against Sri Lanka on its home territory in two years.

New Zealand, the third team in the series, has been eliminated from the tournament.
