Sri Lanka captain Lasith Malinga has won the toss and elected to bat against West Indies in the first semi-final of the ICC World T20.

Malinga is once again leading the side in place of regular captain Dinesh Chandimal, who has opted to sit out of this match.

They made one change as they included leg-spinner Seekkuge Prasanna in place of all-rounder Thisara Perera.

Meanwhile, West Indies are unchanged.
