Pathum Nissankac Rahkeem Cornwall b Shannon Gabriel 56 140 7 0 40
49.1
Shannon Gabriel to Pathum Nissanka, OUT! CAUGHT! Finally the breakthrough comes for West Indies! Full and really wide, Pathum Nissanka goes chasing after it and pays the price. Nissanka looks to thrash it on the off side but gets the outside edge which goes straight to Rahkeem Cornwall at first slip. Cornwall takes a sharp catch and Shannon Gabriel has done the job for his team and breaks the opening stand. Can the Windies pile on a bit of pressure now?
Dimuth Karunaratne (C)st Joshua Da Silva b Roston Chase 147 300 15 0 49
99.5
Roston Chase to Dimuth Karunaratne, OUT! STUMPED! Immediate impact from Roston Chase and what a moment in the match this could prove to be! Chase flights it up beautifully, around the off stump and there's a bit of an extra bounce on offer. Dimuth Karunaratne just looks to keep it out on the off side but is undone by the flight and bounce as he presses forward. Joshua Da Silva, behind the stumps is quick to whip off the bails and seems confident. The third umpire takes a thorough look at it and concludes that the back foot was rooted on the line but no part of the boot was inside the crease and adjudges Karunaratne out. The skipper falls for an epic innings of 147.
Oshada Fernandoc Nkrumah Bonner b Roston Chase 3 27 0 0 11.11
57.3
Roston Chase to Oshada Fernando, OUT! CAUGHT! A short leg comes in place for Oshada Fernando the new batter in the middle and it has done wonders for the West Indies. Chase gets his first wicket of the game and made sure his side starts the final session on a positive note. Quicker, around middle and leg. Fernando hangs back and flicks it to the right of short leg. Nkrumah Bonner is quick to react and grabs the ball sharply. West Indies players are delighted.
Angelo Mathewsc Jason Holder b Roston Chase 3 25 0 0 12
65.1
Roston Chase to Angelo Mathews, OUT! TAKEN! Roston Chase has his second and Angelo Mathews has gifted his wicket away. Credit to Windies too, they have kept the pressure building by giving away nothing. Mathews looks to break the shackles a bit as he steps down the track, does not get to the pitch of the ball as Chase drags his length back a little. Mathews still goes ahead with the heave, the ball though turns back in, it goes more off the inner part of the blade high up in the air towards deep mid-wicket. Holder there, for a second misjudges it but then dives forward and takes a good catch. This has been really good from the Windies after the break. They are getting themselves back in the game.
Dhananjaya de Silvahit wicket b Shannon Gabriel 61 95 5 0 64.21
94.4
Shannon Gabriel to Dhananjaya de Silva, OUT! HIT WICKET! Oh, dear! Such an unfortunate way to get out! Dhananjaya de Silva would be gutted with himself! Back of a length, outside off. Dhananjaya de Silva sits back and looks to run it past the slip cordon but he gets an underedge and the ball dabs onto the deck. The ball bounces off the surface and Dhananjaya de Silva realizes that it is about to hit the stumps so looks to change the direction of the ball with his bat but he hits the stumps with his bat in the process and is adjudged hit wicket. The ploy to bring Gabriel on has worked for West Indies and they will now look to put the hosts under pressure.
Dinesh Chandimal (W)c Rahkeem Cornwall b Roston Chase 45 83 5 0 54.22
127.4
Roston Chase to Dinesh Chandimal, OUT! CAUGHT! A needless shot from Chandimal and Sri Lanka lose their eighth wicket now! Tossed up, outside off. Chandimal looks to play the switch hit but it takes the splice off his bat and the ball goes to Rahkeem Cornwall at first slip, who anticipates it early, moves to his right and takes a good catch. Roston Chase is delighted as he picks up his fourth wicket!
Ramesh Mendisc Joshua Da Silva b Jomel Warrican 13 49 2 0 26.53
112.6
Jomel Warrican to Ramesh Mendis, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! That is a beauty to get rid of Ramesh Mendis from Jomel Warrican and Sri Lanka lose another just minutes before Lunch! Tossed up, on a length, around off, turning away late. Mendis prods and looks to defend but he gets an outside edge to the keeper. Joshua Da Silva makes no mistake and he is delighted!
Suranga Lakmallbw b Jomel Warrican 11 44 2 0 25
124.4
Jomel Warrican to Suranga Lakmal, OUT! LBW! Jomel Warrican strikes and West Indies finally get the breakthrough! Warrican has bowled really well today and is getting the rewards now! He fires it in on a length, around middle and leg. Suranga Lakmal gets back in his crease to work it to the leg side but he misses and gets rapped in front. Warrican puts in an appeal and the umpire raises his finger in no time.
Dushmantha Chameerac Kraigg Brathwaite b Jomel Warrican 3 12 0 0 25
128.1
Jomel Warrican to Dushmantha Chameera, OUT! TAKEN! Dushmantha Chameera looks for a big one but he perishes! Tossed up, on a length, around off. Chameera looks for a slog sweep but it takes the top edge of his bat and the ball loops up in the air towards Kraigg Brathwaite at mid-wicket who takes an easy catch.
Lasith Embuldeniyac Jermaine Blackwood b Roston Chase 17 18 1 1 94.44
133.5
Roston Chase to Lasith Embuldeniya, OUT! TAKEN! Roston Chase gets a fifer and Sri Lanka are bowled out for 386! Chase tosses it up, outside off. Lasith Embuldeniya looks to go over mid off but it takes the outer half of the bat and the ball loops up in the air towards cover. Jermaine Blackwood runs to his right, puts in a dive and takes a very good catch.

Ramesh Mendis to Kraigg Brathwaite, OUT! TAKEN! Ramesh Mendis did not bowl the best of overs so far, but he lands this one quite well to get the wicket of Kraigg Brathwaite! The skipper of West Indies has to walk back after putting on a very good effort against the spinners. Full ball, on the pads. He looks to nudge it around but gets the inside edge. The ball flies towards leg gully. Pathum Nissanka takes a sharp catch to his right.

20.1
Lasith Embuldeniya to Jermaine Blackwood, OUT! LBW! Lasith Embuldeniya finally gets the breakthrough for Sri Lanka which they badly needed! He serves a loopy ball, around leg, turning away a bit. Jermaine Blackwood looks to tuck it to the leg side but he misses and gets rapped in front. Embuldeniya puts in an appeal and the umpire raises his finger. Blackwood reviews it straight away but the Ball Tracker shows three reds and he is a goner! West Indies also lose a review!

23.5
Praveen Jayawickrama to Nkrumah Bonner, OUT! TAKEN! Praveen Jayawickrama gets rid of Nkrumah Bonner and with a beauty of a delivery! Nicely tossed up, on a length, around the fifth-stump channel and turning away sharply. Bonner looks to poke at it at first but decides to leave it in the end. He is late on it and the ball clips his gloves before going past the keeper's gloves and straight into the hands of Dhananjaya de Silva at first slip! Sri Lanka getting wickets in quick succession.
Shai Hopec Oshada Fernando b Ramesh Mendis 10 31 0 0 32.26
33.1
Ramesh Mendis to Shai Hope, OUT! TAKEN! What a catch! Flatter and shorter ball, on the pads. Hope rocks back and flicks it well. But the ball goes in the air towards short leg. It sticks in the hands of Oshada Fernando and he holds onto it! Mendis is on a hat-trick!
Roston Chasec Oshada Fernando b Ramesh Mendis 2 24 0 0 8.33
39.6
Ramesh Mendis to Roston Chase, OUT! TAKEN! Another sharp catch by Oshada Fernando! Fuller ball, on off. Chase gets forward to defend but the ball turns in sharply and he gets the inside edge. Oshada Fernando takes a sharp low catch at short leg. Ramesh Mendis has turned the game on its head with his bowling. Before he came to bowl, it looked the Windies were getting more and more comfortable at the crease but he has created havoc!
Jomel Warricanc Dinesh Chandimal b Praveen Jayawickrama 1 8 0 0 12.5
36.5
Praveen Jayawickrama to Jomel Warrican, OUT! TAKEN! Big spike on the UltraEdge! Tossed up, around off. Jomel Warrican looks to defend off the front foot but he gets an outside edge and the ball goes to the keeper, Dinesh Chandimal who takes a simple catch. Warrican feels that his bat brushed the pads and he did not nick it so he opts for a reveiw. The UltrEdge shows a clear spike and Warrican has to walk back.
Kyle Mayersc Dimuth Karunaratne b Dhananjaya de Silva 45 62 8 0 72.58
57.1
Dhananjaya de Silva to Kyle Mayers, OUT! TAKEN! What a ripper of a catch from the skipper, Dimuth Karunaratne! This is floated up by Dhananjaya de Silva around the off stump but it's not full enough. Kyle Mayers pushes at it with hard hands and that is his undoing. The ball pops up off the face of the ball, towards the right of the short cover fielder. Dimuth Karunaratne jumps to his right and the ball sticks in his right hand. This is a body blow for the Windies as Mayers falls short of his half-century. Sri Lankan players are delighted though.
Jason Holderc Dushmantha Chameera b Praveen Jayawickrama 36 60 3 2 60
60.4
Praveen Jayawickrama to Jason Holder, OUT! TAKEN! Another stunning catch and this is a huge moment in this game as another set batter in Jason Holder walks back to the hut. The ploy to bring in Praveen Jayawickrama right after Drinks has worked for Sri Lanka as he strikes straightaway! Just a tad short, outside off, turning away late. Holder sits back and looks to cut but he gets a thick outside edge and the ball goes towards backward point. Dushmantha Chameera there dives to his right and completes a terrific catch.

Suranga Lakmal to Rahkeem Cornwall, OUT! TAKEN! Rahkeem Cornwall's fighting knock comes to an end and this is a much-needed breakthrough for the hosts! Lakmal comes back into the attack and does the job for his side straightaway! He hurls a well-directed bumper, around off. Cornwall looks to pull, gets cramped in the process and it goes off the top edge towards mid-wicket. Ramesh Mendis there runs behind, settles under it and takes a good catch. The Sri Lankans celebrate as the big man walks back.
Shannon Gabriellbw b Praveen Jayawickrama 2 11 0 0 18.18
85.5
Praveen Jayawickrama to Shannon Gabriel, OUT! LBW! Shannon Gabriel's resistance is over. A flighted ball from Praveen Jayawickrama, it was very full and angling on middle. Shannon Gabriel prods forward and looks to defend but is too late to get his bat down. The ball hits his boot. An appeal and up goes the finger. West Indies review it. UltraEdge shows no bat involved. Ball Tracker shows three reds and that is the end of West Indies' inning. They end at 230.

Rahkeem Cornwall to Pathum Nissanka, OUT! TAKEN! West Indies need quick wickets and Cornwell gives them the start. A tossed up ball, full and down the leg side, spinning away as well. Pathum Nissanka gets low and looks to sweep but only manages some gloves on it towards the leg slip. Shai Hope there, dives to his right and takes a brilliant catch. An appeal and up goes the finger. Pathum Nissanka is not convinced that he got some bat on it but the UltraEdge shows a spike as it passes his glove.

Jermaine Blackwood rocks back and looks to break the shackles as he looks to heave it over the leg side but mistimes it towards mid on where Angelo Mathews dives forward and takes a sharp low catch.

Chase looks to defend it out but misses. The ball sneaks through the gap between the bat and the pad to castle the stumps behind. It has been all Sri Lanka in this session. West Indies lose their fourth wicket. They have absolutely no clue and are struggling here at the moment. The spinners are doing exceptionally well for Sri Lanka.

Ramesh Mendis to Kyle Mayers, OUT! LBW! In just 12 overs West Indies have half of their team sent back. Ramesh Mendis picks up his third wicket. An attempted off-break, around off, but it goes straight through. Mayers leaves it alone, hoping it will go past him, but the ball stays low and struck him on the pads right in front of the stumps. Mendis appeals and the umpire raises his finger in a flash. The thought about taking a review could not have passed by Kyle Mayers mind after being so exposed in front of the stumps.

Ramesh Mendis to Jason Holder, OUT! TIMBER! Ramesh Mendis picks up another wicket and Holder has been sent back on a golden duck. Holder is confused how did it go through his defense. He cannot believe it. The heads are down in the West Indies dressing room. Tossed up, outside off. Holder covers his stumps and looks to defend it out but misses. The ball sneaks past the blade and clips the off pole. The spinners have strangled the West Indies batting line up. Just adding on to the agony. Ramesh Mendis is on a Hat Trick. And, for his bowling performance today, he certainly deserves it.
