After losing the three-match T20I series 1-2, Sri Lanka were handed a two-wicket wicket defeat in the first ODI in Pallekele. But Sri Lanka hit back with a 26-run win in another rain-affected match to level the series.
The two teams then arrived in Colombo for the remainder of the ODIs, and the hosts won both the matches here so far, by six wickets in the third and by four runs in the fourth for an unassailable 3-1 lead.
