De Silva Anchors Sri Lanka to 308
Description
Dhananjaya de Silva delivered a heroic anchor for Sri Lanka on day one, steering them to 308 despite early collapse and relentless West Indies pressure. With de Silva, Chandimal, and later Rathnayake and Dinusha building crucial partnerships, Sri Lanka clawed back from 42 for 3. Justin Greaves emerged as the most damaging bowler with 3 for 39, including de Silva’s wicket, while Roach and Joseph added crucial scalps. West Indies survived the final over without loss, leaving them needing 308 to take the lead. Slow play and limited overs (72.5) added drama — can Sri Lanka’s bowlers strike early on day two?
