Sri Lanka Cricket has advised England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) of the need to adjust the date of the fourth ODI scheduled to be played at the R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo.
The match that was previously scheduled for Saturday 6 December will now be played on Sunday 7 December (originally the reserve day for the game) for religious observance as December 6 is a Poya Day in Sri Lanka.
The third ODI in Hambantota remains scheduled for December 3 but now has December 4 available as a reserve day. There is now no reserve day for the fourth ODI.
