Kolkata, Nov 15 (CRICKETNMORE): Sri Lanka will play five bowlers against India and experienced campaigner Angelo Mathews will bat at No.4, skipper Dinesh Chandimal said on Wednesday ahead of the first cricket Test here.

"That's the combination we are looking at. You need wickets to win against a good team like India and we need to take 20 wickets. We haven't decided yet... we need to see the pitch first. We will decide tomorrow morning who is going to play," Chandimal told reporters on the eve of their first Test against India at the Eden Gardens here.
