Pradeep to Joseph, OUT, off stump goes for a walk. Took just three balls post resumption to get another one.

AS Joseph b Pradeep DUCK

Takes Sri Lanka just four balls to wrap things up after the floodlight failure.

They'll be mighty pleased with this series win.

Avishka Fernando and Kusal Mendis both hit their respective 2nd ODI centuries in a massive 239-run stand.

The new-ball bowlers were disciplined

The wristspinners ran rings around the West Indies batsmen.

Let's hope for some Luck in the T20 format ~

That brings us to the end of this match. There is still one ODI to go and then the T20Is on this tour.
Good Grief : we cannot even win the ODIs ?? jjjeeezzzeee

" Mickey Arthur is a nice guy, and he's trying to groom us. With all the youngsters in the side it's not easy

but he was supporting us and giving us confidence. He's doing a good job."

Where is our Phil Simmons ?

Kieron Pollard:
"I put the catch of Kusal Mendis down, otherwise they would have been three down.
I cop this one on the chin and we move on to Kandy."

Quote:Kieron Pollard : "I cop this one on the chin and we move on to Kandy."

Chin ? you and Phil should COP a kick to your family jewels (a.k.a testicles)

but then again, you Trinis gats NO balls :whistle:
