We might be in for a goodchase. Stay tuned.
13:32 IST: Not the best bit of bowling from Sri Lanka and not the best piece of captaincy from Dimuth Karunaratne either. Thisara Perera was their best bowler but he bowled just 7 overs. Nuwan Pradeep was excellent while Wanindu Hasaranga was economical. But the Lankans struggled for wickets in the middle overs and their backup bowlers were ineffective. Isuru Udana had a poor day, going for 82 in his 10 overs, albeit getting 3 wickets towards the end. 13:30 IST: A very good total posted by the visitors. It always helps when someone in the top 3 bats for long and Shai Hope's presence till the 46th over gave their hitters a good platform. His 115 was slow but measured, on a track which was doing something. He found able allies in Darren Bravo and Roston Chase, not letting the momentum get away. Towards the end, it seemed like the Windies were losing their way but Keemo Paul's cameo of an unbeaten 32 from 17 balls took the totalclose to 300.
13:27 IST: Roston Chase is down for a chat with Roshan Abeysinghe. Chase says that the par score at this ground is 270, so they were targetting close to 300. Is happy with the total. Admits that Shai Hope set it up nicely for a big finish but they lost their way a bit, albeit their big hitters got a late flourish. On his own batting, Chase says that the ball was coming onto the wicket nicely, so he was just trying to play through the line and rotate the strike.Score 289/7

The throw is a limp one, which bounces, bounces and bounces but Paul stops and so does Holder, exactly in the middle of the pitch.
