Sri Lanka vs West Indies Score, 1st Test of

OUT! Bowled. Jayden Seales to Lahiru Kumara. In-swinging length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, missed. A complete and commanding performance from the home side with both bat and ball as they sealed their first-ever Test victory under Roston Chase's captaincy. After setting up the match with a strong batting display, the West Indies pace attack took over, making full use of the conditions on a surface that truly lived up to its reputation as a fast bowler's paradise. Kemar Roach led the charge with a magnificent four-wicket haul, striking at crucial intervals and dismantling Sri Lanka's batting order. The veteran also reached a remarkable personal milestone, claiming his 300th wicket in Test cricket, an achievement that further cements his legacy as one of the West Indies' finest fast bowlers. In contrast, it was a disappointing outing for Sri Lanka's batting unit. None of the batters managed to settle in or convert their starts into substantial contributions, while the lack of a significant partnership only compounded their struggles. Ultimately, they were outplayed in all three departments as the hosts completed a thoroughly deserved victory.
