Fourth ODI
New Delhi: India has won the toss and elected to bat in the fourth ODI of the Idea cup against Sri Lanka at the Premadasa stadium in Colombo today. The match was scheduled for Tuesday, but due to incessant rainfall the match couldn't be played and it was rescheduled for Wednesday. The match started at 14:30 local time and is crucial for the host as the loss could cost them the series. However, it is a good opportunity for team India to register a series win after a dismal loss in the test series.

No changes have been made in both the team. For India once again Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir has started the inning. All eyes will once again be on Zaheer Khan and Praveen Kumar who gave outstanding performance in previous two match. However, turbanator Harbhajan Singh can also do some magic on the slow track of Premadasa. Indian batsmen too need to be ware of Ajanta Mendis and Kulasekara who are in tremendous form and had troubled them throughout the tournament.
