Australia are favourites to win
The five match ODI series between Sri Lanka and Australia concludes on Friday in Colombo. Sri Lanka have won the last three games and now have an unassailable 3-1 lead in the series. This is the first time that the hosts have beaten Australia in a home ODI bilateral series since 1992. This final match of the series begins at the R.Premadasa Stadium at 14:30 local time.
Sri Lanka have shown plenty of skill and character in this series after coming back from 1-0 down. They are being cheered on by a partisan crowd and they will be very confident of winning the series 4-1.
Australia were beaten by only 4 runs on Tuesday and they will be determined to get back to winning ways ahead of the Test series which begins on Wednesday.
This match will be shown live on Star Sports in India, Sky Sports in the UK, Fox Cricket in Australia and Siyatha TV in Sri Lanka.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Disney Plus and Sky Go.
Australia have chosen to bat first once and field first twice in this series so far. With humidity expected to rise during the second half of this game, we predict that both captains will want to field first.
Throughout the series we have seen spinners on both sides cause batters plenty of problems on this pitch. Any score over 280 will be very hard to chase on this pitch.
According to the forecast, there is a good chance of thunderstorms during this match. Expect hot and sticky conditions throughout Friday's game.

There was one change for Sri Lanka ahead of the fourth ODI on Tuesday. Pace bowler Dushmantha Chameera missed out with swelling on his ankle and was replaced by spinner Wanindu Hasaranga who returned from injury. We expect to see an unchanged XI for the hosts ahead of this final game.
Sri Lanka have won three ODIs on the bounce and are targeting their fourth successive ODI victory for the first time since November 2015.
Pathum Nissanka, Niroshan Dickwella (wk), Kusal Mendis, Charith Asalanka, Dasun Shanaka (c), Dhananjaya de Silva, Wanindu Hasaranga, Chamika Karunaratne, Dunith Wellalage, Jeffrey Vandersay, Maheesh Theekshana
Pace bowler Jhye Richardson was rested for the fourth ODI and we expect him to come back into the Australia XI for this game. Josh Hazlewood has been impressive with the ball but we predict he will be rested ahead of the Test series.
Australia have lost five of their last six ODIs. There has not been much between the sides in this series but they have been unable to get over the winning line in recent games.
David Warner, Aaron Finch (c), Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Travis Head, Cameron Green, Matthew Kuhnemann, Pat Cummins, Jhye Richardson
With three successive victories, Sri Lanka are making inroads into Australia’s large lead in the head to head in this format. Australia have a 27 match advantage after 101 games between the sides.

Australia have certainly been competitive in this series in spite of losing 3-1 so far. The bookies fancy Australia to come out on top in this final ODI.
On a tough batting wicket, we have seen some exceptional individual innings during this series. It was David Warner’s turn to go big on Tuesday and we expect another batter to do the same in this game.
For Sri Lanka, we are backing Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis and Niroshan Dickwella with the bat. Dickwella has scored two centuries in ODI cricket.
David Warner, Aaron Finch and Marnus Labuschagne are our picks for Australia with the bat. Finch averages 40.71 from 139 ODIs.
Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana and Chamika Karunaratne are our bowling picks for Sri Lanka. Karunaratne has taken a wicket every 25.2 balls in this series.
Pat Cummins, Jhye Richardson and Matt Kuhnemann are our bowling recommendations for Australia. Kuhnemann dismissed Wellalage and Karunaratne in Tuesday’s ODI.
We had a nail biting finish to the fourth ODI of the series earlier in the week and we predict that this game will be equally as close and exciting. Sri Lanka will be keen to continue their winning run whereas Australia will be desperate to regain the initiative on this tour. We expect to see Australia come out on top in this fifth and final ODI.
