The team was very disappointed about the lost to Pakistan and have vowed to come out and play strong against the Kenyans, even though they are overwhelming favourites to take the victory.
Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene will look to lead the charges with the bat while Muttiah Muralitharan will be the man in charge with the ball.
Meanwhile, pacer Lasith Malinga could return after recovering from a back injury.
Sri Lanka coach Trevor Bayliss said: “Lasith bent over to pick up a cricket ball about two weeks ago and strained his back a little.
“He bowled in the last two practice sessions. He has bowled with a full run-up today and batted and fielded.
“We have a selection meeting in the evening and will decide what to do then.”
