Scotland won the toss and elected to bowl first against Sri Lanka in the second game of the two-match ODI series at the Grange Cricket Club in Edinburgh on Tuesday.
Sri Lanka is led by Dimuth Karunaratne, while Kyle Coetzer captains Scotland. The first game was abandoned due to rain, without a ball being bowled.
The two-match ODI series will serve as a final preparation for Sri Lanka ahead of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019.
They are expected to use this series as an opportunity to adapt under the newly-appointed ODI captain Karunaratne. Scotland, on the other, comes from a 0-1 series defeat to Afghanistan.
