Sri Lanka, which won the toss and opted to field first in the third test against Pakistan at the Pallakele Stadium on Sunday, has sent four Pakistan players back to the dressing room. Pakistan were 63/4 at the end of 20th over.

Sri Lanka only need a draw in the final test to seal a 1-0 series win.

The home side made three changes to their side with batsman Dinesh Chandimal, all-rounder Thisara Perera and seamer Dilhara Fernando replacing Tillakaratne Dilshan, fast bowler Nuwan Pradeep and spinner Suraj Randiv.

Dilshan pulled out of the team due to family reasons leaving Chandimal to open the batting with Tharanga Paranavitana.
