Sri Lanka skipper Mahela Jayawardene won the toss and chose to bat against India in the fourth of the five-match One-day International (ODI) at the R Premadasa Stadium a short while ago.

The visitors gave a good account of their character in the third match of the series with Suresh Raina and Irfan Pathan stitching a record 92-run sixth-wicket partnership to take the visitors home to a 2-1 lead in the series after succumbing to one of their lowest totals against the Islanders in the second ODI.
