Lankans elect to field first

Holders Sri Lanka won the toss and put England into bat in a crucial World Twenty20 group game at the Feroz Shah Kotla in New Delhi on Saturday.
The Eoin Morgan-led side, which needs a victory to ensure a place in the semi-finals, included fit-again opener Alex Hales in the starting line-up in place of James Vince.

Sri Lanka, who also need a win to stay in the hunt for a place in the last four, brought in medium-pacer Dasun Chanaka in place of veteran seamer Nuwan Kulasekara.
Teams:
England: Eoin Morgan (captain), Jason Roy, Alex Hales, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Moeen Ali, Chris Jordan, Adil Rashid, David Willey, Liam Plunkett
Sri Lanka: Angelo Mathews (captain), Tillakaratne Dilshan, Dinesh Chandimal, Lahiru Thirimanne, Chamara Kapugedera, Milinda Siriwardana, Thisara Perera, Dasun Chanaka, Jeffrey Vandersay, Dushmantha Chameera, Rangana Herath
Umpires: Paul Reiffel (AUS) and Rod Tucker (AUS)
TV umpire: Chris Gaffaney (NZL)
