The 1996 winners Sri Lanka lead the Aussies by one point in the group standings and a win would clinch second spot in the pool behind leaders New Zealand.
Shane Watson returned to Australia's line-up, batting at No.6 for Mitchell Marsh after he was dropped for the last win over Afghanistan, while spinner Xavier Doherty will get his first start in the tournament for paceman Josh Hazlewood.
Sri Lanka made three changes, with leg-spinner Seekkuge Prasanna, batsman Upul Tharanga and all-rounder Sachithra Senanayake coming in for the injured duo Dimuth Karunaratne and Rangana Herath, with Suranga Lakmal also left out.
