LONDON, May 22 (AFP): Sri Lanka snapped an eight-match one-day international losing streak ahead of the World Cup with a 35-run win over Scotland in a rain-affected match in Edinburgh on Tuesday.
The Scots may not have qualified for the World Cup but last year beat tournament hosts and favourites England to prove they were well capable of causing an upset.
Saturday's opener had been abandoned without a ball being bowled due to rain, but the teams had better luck with the weather second time.
Dimuth Karunaratne, the new Sri Lanka captain top-scored with 77 in a total of 322 for eight - just his second fifty at this level.
