    That is it from this game! West Indies kept it late but have managed to drag themselves over the line and bag the 3-match T20I series 2- to start off this fascinating contest. The action now moves to the ODIs between the two sides. The 3-match ODI series begins on Monday 10th March. The first game will begin at 0930 local (1330 GMT). Make sure you join us for that one. Till then, goodbye and take care!

    For his brilliant performance, first with the ball and then with the bat, Fabian Allen is named the Player of the Match! Allen says that whenever the team asks him to do anything, he is always ready. Says that he is always prepared and when the skipper asked, he did the job. Tells that the pitch was on the slower side and he executed the plans nicely with the ball. Adds that he backs himself to play those big shots. On Holder not taking singles in the 18th over, Allen tells that it was him who went to his partner and told him that he is not comfortable playing Hasaranga. Tells that he backed himself for going for the big shot in the next over.

    So near yet so far for Sri Lanka. Their bowlers, especially Wanindu Hasaranga and Lakshan Sandakan almost did the magic and turned things in their favor but not to be! Wanindu Hasaranga was once again the tormentor in chief as the hosts found him hard to face. He finished with 2/13. Lakshan Sandakan too grabbed 3 and gave away just 29. Dushmantha Chameera was brilliant too picking up a couple and going under 6 pro. But Akila Dananjaya was too expensive, the gamble to give him the penultimate over backfired as he was taken to the cleaners by Fabian Allen. He finished with 0/53 from his 4 and that proved to be the difference between the two sides.

    Chasing a modest total of 132, West Indies got off to a firing start as Lewis and Simmons started off with a bang. Lewis though departed after getting to start. They were cruising in the Powerplay but that changed completely after that. The Sri Lankan spinners, led by Wanindu Hasaranga once again did the damage. The hosts struggled for partnerships and the dot balls along with wickets kept building pressure. Pooran settled, then just when he was taking off he too departed. Holder though kept his ice-cool composure, he stuck to his gameplan. He stuck at one end and ensured the game was within reach. It was Fabian Allen's day though. First with the ball and when 20 were needed off the final 2 overs, he destroyed Akila Dananjaya in the penultimate kiver and got his side over the line.

    Phew! West Indies have done it the hard way but they have done it and won the series. Sri Lanka's wait for a T20I series win extends but commiseration for them. They made this a very close contest but just was not enough to see them over the line. They did all they could but were unable to get over the line.

    out, OUT! CAUGHT! Pollard departs without troubling the scorers. The move to bring on the pacer has paid its reward. Chameera hits the deck hard outside off. Just like Mathews, Pollard too looks to run it down behind point. The ball shapes away a bit and kisses the outside edge of Pollard's willow. Dickwella, behind the stumps, dives to his left and in front as the ball dies down to him. The Sri Lankan keeper does well to take the catch. The West Indies skipper departs.

    W

    out, OUT! STUMPED! Wanindu strikes again and one has to question his choice of shot! Was it even necessary? They can easily see off Hasaranga as the required rate is not much but Simmons has gone looking for glory and departed. Flighted delivery outside off, Simmons wears his dancing shoes and comes down the track. The dancing shoes though are not equipped for this ball as Simmons misses his move. He swings his bat, connects with nothing. The West Indian opener is too far down the track and Dickwella does the rest.

    Wanindu Hasaranga to Evin Lewis

    W

    out, OUT! LBW! Wanindu once again weaving his magic and striking in his very first over. Is he going to turn this game around once again with his spinning webs? Floated delivery pitching on middle. Lewis looks to sweep it across the line. The ball pitches and keeps straight. Lewis misses his sweep and gets hit on the pad. A huge appeal follows and the umpire raises his finger. Lewis has a chat with Simmons but decides not to review it. Good call as it looked plum in front and replays later on confirm it.

    Review time! An appeal for LBW against Evin Lewis has been turned down by the umpire but Angelo Mathews has decided to take it upstairs. Let's see what the replays have to say. 

    4.1

    Wanindu Hasaranga to Lendl Simmons

    1

    1 run, IN THE AIR AND DROPPED! Danushka Gunathilaka has dropped a sitter here. He must be doing much better than that. Almost a dream start for Hasaranga. He starts with a loopy ball, Simmons comes down the track and hits it against the breeze over mid-wicket. It does not go the distance and instead goes straight to deep mid-wicket. Gunathilaka there gets on his knees, the ball pops in and out of his hand. 

    Change in bowling. Angelo Mathews has decided to bring on his trump card. The Man of the Match from the last game, Wanindu Hasaranga is into the attack now.
