England captain Charlotte Edwards chose to field after winning the toss in Sunday’s women’s World Twenty20 final against Australia at Colombo’s Premadasa Stadium.

Defending champions Australia have named an unchanged side following their semi-final win over West Indies on Friday night.

England are unbeaten in the tournament including a victory over Australia in the group stage.

The match is set to start in sunny conditions on a pitch expected to be slow-paced and favouring spinners.

Teams:

England: Charlotte Edwards (capt), Arran Brindle, Katherine Brunt, Holly Colvin, Lydia Greenway, Jenny Gunn, Danielle Hazell, Laura Marsh, Anya Shrubsole, Sarah Taylor, Danielle Wyatt.

Australia: Jodie Fields (capt), Alyssa Healy, Meg Lanning, Jess Cameron, Lisa Sthalekar, Alex Blackwell, Rachael Haynes, Erin Osborne, Julie Hunter, Ellyse Perry, Jess Jonassen.
