That's all we have from this match! Third ODI will be a dead rubber but both teams will be going hard for a win for different reasons. Sri Lanka would love to inflict a clean sweep whereas West Indies would like to avoid the same. Do join us on 1st March at 1430 local (0900 GMT) for all the action. Until then, it's goodbye and cheers!
Dimuth Karunaratne, the Sri Lankan skipper, thanks his teammates first of all. Credits Mendis and Fernando for their fantastic batting performance. Mentions how Wanindu and Sandakan were outstanding, and that the fast bowlers were good as well. On being asked about Major Perera's performance, Dimuth says that he did well with the ball and the bat as well. When asked about Mickey Arthur, their coach, Karunaratne says that is a nice guy and that he supports them at every turn. Adds that he gives them self-confidence on and off the pitch. Ends by thanking the crowd for coming out in such large numbers.
Kieron Pollard, the West Indian skipper, says that the partnership between Fernando and Mendis took the game away from them after the 2 early wickets. Adds that the ground was big and both the wrist spinners were looking for wickets taking advantage of that. On being asked whether he would like to change something from today's performance, he laughs and says everything. Adds that he is disappointed about how the team failed in crunch moments. Ends by saying that he is disappointed with his own performances today too.
Avishka Fernando is the Player of the Match. Fernando says that he is very happy with his performance and thinks that he batted really well. Adds that there was pressure at the start after the loss of 2 early wickets. Shares that they planned to construct a partnership and praises Mendis for batting so well. Ends by saying that he likes to play against the West Indies fast bowlers as he prefers pace.
Angelo Mathews is down for a quick chat. Says that he is very happy with the victory and adds that it was a convincing one for them. Credits Avishka Fernando and Kusal Mendis for the way they batted and the partnership they had and also mentions how the bowlers performed really well. On his wonderful catch, Angelo replies that he wants to contribute in every manner possible and that he has been working a lot on his fitness. On playing his 100th ODI in Sri Lanka, Mathews says he is proud and it is a very big achievement for any person to play so many matches for the country. Stay tuned for the presentation...
In pursuit, West Indies started steadily but failed to capitalize. They were completely at sea against the Lankan wrist spinners and flopped miserably. Shai Hope once again was the only batsman to present a fight but apart from him, it was a collective failure for the touring team. A thoroughly professional effort in the field by the Lankan Lions and they deserve to be 2-0 ahead in the series.
A ruthless show one can say! Although it started on a sorry note for Sri Lanka as they lost two quick wickets upfront but that was followed by a record and marathon 239-run stand between Avishka Fernando and Kusal Mendis. Both struck fabulous centuries and propelled the home team to a gigantic total. The West Indian bowling was very flat, however, Alzarri Joseph and Sheldon Cottrell bowled some good overs at the death. Their fielding though was very mediocre with plenty of catches getting dropped and granting Mendis a life when he was on 2 haunted them the most.
Thumping win for Sri Lanka! They have registered their biggest win against West Indies in ODIs to take an unsurpassable lead in the 3-match ODI series. The Lankan dressing room is all smiles and their players are celebrating in the middle.

Nuwan Pradeep To Alzarri Joseph OUT!
OUT! Pradeep strikes with a corker of a yorker. Nails it at the base of off stump, little bit of tail in the air and Joseph is late in bringing his bat down. The off stump goes for a walk and Sri Lanka are just one wicket away from taking an unassailable lead in the series.

Spears in a full ball on off, Joseph tries to drive but it takes the inner half, strikes him on the front pad and rolls back to the bowler.
Resumption time! After a delay of little over 10 minutes, the floodlight is restored to its working state. Pradeep steams in...
Alzarri Joseph is the new batsman. It seems there is a light failure. One of the floodlights has stopped illuminating and we have a delay. The spectators are flashing the back light of their mobile phones. Unfortunately, that cannot help.

Nuwan Pradeep To Keemo Paul OUT!
OUT! Pradeep destroys the stumps with his back of the hand variation. He lands it on a length around off, Paul is way too early into his shot and as a result, he fails to make any connection. Wicket number 8 goes down and the end is nigh for West Indies.

NOT OUT! Missing leg. Loopy full ball landing on middle and it spins in after pitching, Paul tries to flick but misses and is rapped on the pads. They appeal but the umpire shakes his head. Karunaratne takes the referral after the request from his bowler. The replays roll in and Snicko detects no involvement of bat. Ball Tracker takes time to generate... We all wait and once it comes on the screen, the ball is seen to be spinning down and missing the leg stump.
Review time! Keemo Paul is the man in question as Sri Lanka have challenged the decision of the umpire. After a long halt, the Ball Tracker comes in and shows that the ball is going down leg.

Sandakan serves a flighted full ball outside off, spinning away after landing, Pooran kneels down for the slog sweep but fails to middle his shot. It finds the top edge and balloons in the air towards mid-wicket. Mathews in the vicinity quickly moves across to his right and completes the catch with a full length dive. Final nail in the West Indian coffin, only formalities left in this run chase now.

Drinks break. The Lankan Lions are roaring in this match! Their spinners are ruling the roost and have accounted for 4 wickets so far. It's been a completely lackluster batting show by West Indies. Their middle order refused to put up a fight and now they are staring down at a series loss. Let's see for how long they can avoid the inevitable. 190 needed off 96 balls with only one recognized batsman left.

It lands and grips before spinning away from the left-hander as Bravo tries to flick it against the spin. The ball probably takes the back of his bat and Dhananjaya de Silva reacts well to his right at first slip to grab the catch. Wanindu is ecstatic and a disappointed Darren is on his bike. 253 needed more by West Indies off 179 balls to level the series!
Nicholas Pooran is the new man in as West Indies are in a spot of bother.

Full ball wide outside off, Hope looks to drag it towards mid-wicket but is undone by the lack of pace on the ball. The man at short mid-wicket, Dimuth Karunaratne, catches the ball over his head and it's a massive breakthrough for Sri Lanka. 263 needed off 197 balls.

Drinks! It's been a decent start for the West Indies. They would've loved to have Ambris still playing but it is not the case now. Hope though is still looking very good out in the middle and he will look to continue rotating the strike with support from the other end. Sri Lanka have the opening though with Bravo still fresh at the crease and now will try to get a couple of quick wickets to choke West Indies in this run chase. Wanindu Hasaranga comes on for the first time in this match. Can he produce some magic?

It was becoming very difficult for the Sri Lankan bowlers to break this stand but West Indies have shot themselves in the foot here. Full ball on the pads, Hope flicks this one towards Mathews at mid-wicket. Hope sets off for a run and comes almost halfway down the pitch. His partner, Sunil Ambris, obliges but Hope then turns back. Ambris too has to turn back and tries to reach his crease at the non-striker's end. Mathews throws the ball to Udana at the non-striker's end who dislodges the bails and Ambris is well short. No need of a referral here and Ambris has to walk back. Is this the opening that the Lankans wanted?

Thisara Perera To Sunil Ambris
Good effort in the end! Full ball on middle and leg, Ambris lofts this over the man at mid-wicket. The fielder hares after it and just about pulls the ball back in play before crashing into the boundary cushions. The batters take three runs by the time the fielder can come back in and throw the ball back.

A slower delivery outside the off pole line, it does not bounce much. Hope looks to have a poke at it and guide it down the third man region but the ball sneaks through his bat and pad. Goes to the keeper on a couple of bounces.

Nuwan Pradeep To Shai Hope
DROPPED! Sandakan drops a sitter! On a length on middle by Pradeep, Hope shuffles across and looks to flick it. The ball though does not stay down and it goes uppishly towards short fine leg where Sandakan tries to take the catch but spills it. Hope is a man in form coming off the back of a century in the last match and this can prove to be costly. The batsmen take a single in the meantime.

WIDE! But excellent take from the keeper. Pradeep bends his back and bowls a bouncer on middle. However, it goes way over the batter. Perera leaps high in the air and does well to pouch the ball. Wided by the square leg umpire.

Runs straightaway! A good length ball on middle, Hope flicks it towards deep mid-wicket. He does not go hard at the ball and just times it. So, it does not go to the fence and the mid-wicket fielder chases it down. A couple to get off the mark.
We are back for the chase. The Sri Lankan players are out in the middle. Shai Hope and Sunil Ambris will open their batting for West Indies. Nuwan Pradeep will start the proceedings for Sri Lanka with the first new ball. Two slips in place. Here we go...
