The first innings has concluded, and the West Indies have set a respectable total on the scoreboard. Rovman Powell delivered an exceptional performance, showcasing his skill as he top scored with 37, with impressive support from Gudakesh Motie, scoring 32 runs off just 15 balls. On the other hand, the Sri Lankan bowlers did well, with Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga each claiming two wickets. Can Sri Lanka chase down this target and claim the series win?
