Scorecard

India skipper Rahul Dravid won the toss and elected to field in the second one-day international against Sri Lanka at the Madhavrao Scindia ground in Rajkor on Sunday.

India made one change in the eleven they fielded in the washed out first ODI in Kolkata, opting for a double spin attack. Anil Kumble was included in place of left arm pacer Zaheer Khan, who has been rested.

Sri Lanka too made one alternation in their team, bringing in Nuwan Kulasekara in place of left arm pacer Nuwan Zoysa.

The four-match series is tied 0-0 after the opening ODI at Kolkata was washed out because of unseasonal rain.

India: Rahul Dravid (capt), Sourav Ganguly, Robin Uthappa, Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk), Harbhajan Singh, Munaf Patel, Dinesh Kartik, Shantakumaran Sreesanth and Anil Kumble. 12th: Ajit Agarkar.
