Third Sri Lanka-Bangladesh one-dayer delayed

COLOMBO, July 25 (Reuters) The third one-day international between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh in Colombo today has been delayed by wet weather.

Early morning rain delayed the scheduled start and an inspection was planned for 1045 hrs.

The toss will be taken once a start time is confirmed but both teams have confirmed their starting XIs.

Sri Lanka have confirmed three changes after taking an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series with a five-wicket win on Monday.

Batsman Chamara Silva, pace bowler Lasith Malinga and leg-spinner Malinga Bandara have all been rested to make room for Chamara Kapugedera, Nuwan Kulasekera and Upul Chandana.

Bangladesh dropped Shariar Nafees and Tushar Imran in place of Javed Omar and Mahmudullah.
