BBC Test Match Special's Roshan Abeysinghe
"Malinga is someone the Sri Lankans were banking on a lot for the big games, if perhaps not Canada, Kenya or Zimbabwe. But Thisara Perera hasn't let the side down, so it'll be interesting to see how well he performs."
BBC Test Match Special's Tom Moody
"Perera is more of a bowling all-rounder, they've used him up the order as a pinch-hitter quite successfully. But I think you can't afford to give the batsmen any width on this wicket."
BBC Test Match Special's Tom Moody
"I think Sri Lanka need to make a change here as Perera is struggling with his line."
BBC Test Match Special's Ramiz Raja
"Sri Lanka will know the best way to stop the flow of runs is to take wickets."
BBC Sport's Rishi Persad
On Twitter: "No show from Indian team at press conference for two days, now today's delayed by at least 2 hrs. Shame billboards can't speak."
BBC Sport's Sonali Shah
On Twitter: "Stadium in Colombo not full yet, but atmosphere is fantastic already."
BBC Test Match Special's Russel Arnold.
"The capacity of the stadium here has been doubled - I was out in the middle earlier and it looked absolutely magnificent."
BBC Test Match Special's Russel Arnold
"Pakistan will be pleased with this start, but what they want to do is consolidate, keep rotating the strike and set themselves up for later in the innings as the ball gets softer."
BBC Test Match Special's Kevin Howells
"I'll never forget Younus Khan after he led Pakistan to victory in the World Twenty20 at Lord's in 2009 - he gave one of the most heartfelt post-match press conferences I've ever seen, as he pleaded with the cricket world not to forget Pakistan and keep them in international cricket, despite their problems. He was nearly tearful."
BBC Test Match Special's Jonathan Agnew
