Sri Lanka skipper Dasun Shanaka won the toss and elected to bat first against India as the tourists look to keep the series alive in Thursday's second one-day international.
The visitors made two changes at Kolkata's Eden Gardens after losing the opener in the three-match series. Debutant batsman Nuwanidu Fernando and fast bowler Lahiru Kumara come in for Pathum Nissanka and Dilshan Madushanka, both injured.
India brought in left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav to replace Yuzvendra Chahal, who was deemed not fit. Skipper Rohit Sharma said the hosts needed to start "fresh" after Tuesday's 67-run hammering of Sri Lanka in Guwahati.
