Thu, 22 Jan 2009: 

With a trivial change in the upcoming five one-day series against the visitor India, the Sri Lankan Cricket Board has shifted the second ODI match from the previously announced Rangiri International Stadium in Dambulla to Premadasa stadium, Colombo.

India is touring Sri Lankan later this month with the fst one-day international schedule on Jan 28 at Dambulla.

The capital city Colombo will host the last five matches, including one Twenty20 international.

Earlier, Dambulla was scheduled to host the first two one-dayers. The first and fifth ODIs are day games while the remaining will be played under lights.

Revised schedule:

Jan 28 - First ODI, Dambulla

Jan 31 - Second ODI, Premadasa stadium, Colombo (day/night)

Feb 3 - Third ODI, Premadasa Stadium, Colombo (d/n)

Feb 5 - Fourth ODI, Premadasa Stadium, Colombo (d/n)

Feb 8 - Fifth ODI, Sinhalese Sports Club, Colombo

Feb 10 - Twenty20 International, Premadasa Stadium, Colombo (d/n)
