Player Of The Match
  • 49.6

    OUT! Run Out. Sheldon Cottrell to Wanindu Hasaranga. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot sweeping, missed back to bowler, fielded by Hope. This will be a very tough chase, Fernando and Mendis did ever so well after a scary start. The West Indies were wasteful in the field dropping 3 noteable catches but the drop of Mendis near the start could have changed the game completley. This ground is known for the high chases. The West Indies have the batting line up to do it.

    OUT! Caught. Lakshan Sandakan to Fabian Allen. Googly half volley, down leg side on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air under control to long on, by Perera. And that is the end of that. The West Indies only hope was the ever fabulous Shai Hope. If anymore of his team mates could have stayed with him then they may have had more of a chance. Sri Lanka out batted, bowled and fielded the West Indies. They ran them ragged in the when they were batting too. Hats off to the two spinners for Sri Lanka who did most of the damage. They win the series too, currently 2-0.
