12.5
Brathwaite to Dilshan, Gone ! Back of a length, angling in to cramp him for room, and he nicks it to the keeper

Dilshan c †Ramdin b Brathwaite 59

10.2
Brathwaite to Thirimanne, an old-fashioned good ball. Wide of the crease, fuller, angling away, and Thirimanne drives away

from his body and nicks to the keeper, who takes a good catch tumbling to his left.

This Dw/L system is never fair on the team batting first in these situations because Sri Lanka will come out and play a t20 innings and win the game easily. The rain really knocked the WI out of this one.

easyyyyyyyy for lanka

big wicket of matthews

120 - 4

15.4
Taylor to Mathews, OUT, down the track, and he ends up slicing it to third man, who takes a good catch falling forward.

Don't know why he went for that shot with the required rate as manageable as it is

Mathews c Carter b Taylor 13

127/4

Just 31 need from 8 overs now and Sri Lanka has lost 5 wickets now to be at 132-5. Still backing Sri Lanka to win this one!

Narine causing a little bit of trouble now for the Sri Lankan batsmen having grabbing two wickets in one over to leave them at 133-6.
