WI vs SL Live Cricket Score

10.4 OUT! TAKEN! Cornwall strikes and West Indies have got the first wicket. A sharp take at short leg from Campbell. Karunaratne fails to make use of the chance he got in the last over when Blackwood slipped it. This was darted on middle and leg, Dimuth looks to work it on the leg side but ends up getting a thick inside edge. The ball goes uppishly towards short leg where Campbell snaffles the chance nicely.  17/1

64 OUT! TIMBER! Holder strikes and removes dangerous Thirimanne. He is pumped as the set batsman heads to the pavilion. Another length ball outside off, it is angled in again. Thirimanne looks to reach at it and drive. He ends up dragging the ball onto the stumps. Big, big wicket. A valiant knock from Thirimanne because scoring has been tough but he would be disappointed as he walks off.  160/7

15.1 OUT! RUN OUT! Direct hits are always close and here, Fernando is well short. What terrific work in the field by skipper Brathwaite. It was a risky single and Oshada has to pay the price now. Good length ball around off, Thirimanne drops it near the off side and calls for a single. A bit of hesitation from Fernando but he eventually goes. Brathwaite latches on the ball from the covers and scores a direct hit at the striker's end. The third umpire has been called for. One replay and that is enough for the third umpire to give the marching order to Oshada.  29/2

26.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Brilliant bowling from Holder and he reaps the reward for it. Another wicket for West Indies right at the stroke of Lunch. Good length and around off, Chandimal hangs his bat out looking to defend the ball. The ball though takes the edge and flies safely into the mitts of the keeper. There is an appeal and the umpire raises his finger. Chandimal though thinks otherwise as he takes the review and the replays roll in. The ball is very close to the bat as the third umpire asks for Ultra Edge. The Ultra Edge comes up and it shows a big spike when the ball is close to the bat. Sri Lanka lose a wicket as well as a review.  54/3

34.4 OUT! TIMBER! Knocks him over! An absolute beauty from Roach. De Silva has to go. After taking three balls away, this one comes back in. De Silva is a bit late in getting his bat down. Also, leaving a big gap between bat and pad. The ball sneaks through that gap to shatter the woodwork behind. The budding stand has been broken.  76/4

38.3 OUT! CAUGHT! The debutant departs cheaply. This is vintage West Indies bowling. Excellent length and Roach earns the reward for consistency. Length ball around off, a hint of away movement on this one as Nissanka looks to defend it off the back foot. He though gets a thick outside edge which flies towards the second slip where Holder pouches it. Half the side done and dusted and the score has not crossed 100. Big, big trouble for Sri Lanka.  92/5

60 OUT! CAUGHT! Holder strikes and Rahkeem Cornwall does the rest. Nicely set up wicket this. Holder keeps on bowling the wide deliveries the previous over and continues to do the same in this over too. Finally, Dickwella runs out of patience as he tries to smash one down the ground. He though is nowhere in a position to play the stroke as he could manage just a thick outside edge which is gobbled up but Rahkeem Cornwall at first slip. Holder is successful in breaking the 58-run association  150/6

65.1 OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust and Holder has his 4th. Sri Lanka 8 down now. A good length ball around off and middle, Lakmal looks to flick but ends up getting a leading edge. The ball goes high in the air towards the backward point region. Brathwaite there runs behind and settles under it and takes the catch easily. Holder will be on a hat-trick now.  163/8

66.1 OUT! TIMBER! The off pole has gone for the toss. Ripping delivery from Roach. Roach has been superb in this spell. He runs in and bowls a full ball just around off, Chameera is late in bringing his bat down. The ball sneaks below his willow and the off pole goes flying. Absolute peach from Kemar.  164/9

69.4 OUT! LBW! Umpire's call on hitting the wickets and Holder has 5. Excellent performance from him and West Indies. He beats the batsman with pace and swing once again. This one is fullish and outside off. Lands and comes back in sharply. Embuldeniya plays all around it and fails to put any bat on ball and gets struck on the pad. Big appeal from Holder and the others. The umpire thinks and then raises his finger. Embuldeniya reviews again. This time the DRS won't be saving him as Ultra Edge shows no bat and Ball Tracker shows umpire's call on hitting the wickets. Holder and West Indies celebrate. Sri Lanka have been bowled out for 169.  169/10

15.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Early breakthrough for Sri Lanka on Day 2! Just what the doctor ordered for the visitors. The experience of Lakmal gets the better of the West Indies skipper. Good length ball wide outside off, Kraigg Brathwaite is tempted to have a poke at it. He cannot control his temptation and goes for it but ends up getting a thick outside edge that goes low to second slip. Dhananjaya de Silva there manages to take a good sharp catch. An avoidable shot for Kraigg, against his nature, he got lured into it and ended up playing away from his body.  13/1

46.2 OUT! Caught behind! Beautiful piece of bowling by Chameera and he finally has a wicket to his name in this innings. He speeds in from 'round the wicket and hurls in a good length ball close to off, Campbell is forced to play the trajectory but the ball straightens off the seam after hitting the deck and there is some extra bounce too. As a result, the outside edge is induced and Dickwella makes no mistake behind the stumps. The 148-ball fight from John is over. West Indies trail by 74 runs!  95/3

36.1 OUT! LBW! Umpire's call not just on hitting the wickets but also on impact. West Indies do not lose the review but it is not good enough to save Nkrumah Bonner! Short on off, Bonner plays a very casual shot. He looks to pull this one but misses as this one keeps straight with a hint of turn. He misses his pull and gets hit on the back pad. The Sri Lankan players put in a huge appeal and the umpire raises his finger. Bonner signals the 'T' straightaway. The Ultra Edge takes a lot of time to roll in but then eventually it does. Ultra Edge shows no spike involved. Time for the Ball Tracker. This rolls quickly. It shows that the pitching is fine. The impact though is on the line, i.e. Umpire's call. Further, it shows the ball to be clipping the off pole. Once again, the infamous Umpire's Call on impact. Bonner has to walk back and Sri Lanka will have at least two wickets before they head for Lunch.  69/2

57.1 OUT! CAUGHT IN SLIPS! This is outstanding bowling by Suranga Lakmal, pure brilliance. Comes round the wicket, bowls it at a length, and gets enough movement to force an outside edge to Dhananjaya de Silva at second slip. No real foot movement by Kyle Mayers while looking to drive it and that's what cost him his wicket. Kyle Mayers was looking good out in the middle and his wicket will put pressure on the West Indies.  133/5

51.1 OUT! Cleaned him up! Lakmal returns and creates an impact straightaway. That's too loose from Blackwood. Lakmal serves a fuller length ball close to off and gets it to skid off the surface. Jermaine decides to have a drive through the line but it keeps coming in with the angle, grabs the inside edge and cannons onto the stumps behind. Lakmal has been superb all day with his outswingers but gets a wicket this time with an incomer!  120/4

71.3 OUT! STUMPS SHATTERED! Lakmal has four in the match now and he is ecstatic. Once again he dishes out a delivery that nips back in after landing on a length outside off, Holder tries his best to defend with a straight bat but it brushes the toe half of his bat, possibly clips some part of his pads and deflects behind to uproot the off stump. This is top class bowling from Suranga Lakmal.  169/6

97.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Soft dismissal and Joshua Da Silva will be gutted to be dismissed in that manner. End of a brilliant knock. He deserved a fifty but will not get it, unfortunately. Short ball around off, Joshua expected it. He looks to guide it over the slip cordon but moves too far away and ends up getting a feather on it, straight to the keeper. An easy take for Dickwella and a stand that might be the one that changes the game is broken.  261/8

74 OUT! CAUGHT! 5-wicket haul for Suranga Lakmal! This has been a phenomenal bowling display from the tall Sri Lankan pacer. Fullish ball outside off, Alzarri, who is more than capable with the bat, goes for the drive. The ball shapes away and his drive goes off the outer half of his bat. The ball goes low to the left of point. Dinesh Chandimal there reacts quickly and takes a very good catch.  171/7

102.3 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! This time the inswing does the trick! The big man, Rahkeem Cornwall has to go. Fernando gets his first wicket of the innings! Full ball on off, it swings in sharply. Rahkeem looks to go for the big booming drive but misses and the ball shatters the stumps behind.  271/9

103 OUT! LBW! That's it! Gabriel goes and that's the end of the innings! Fernando does not take long to finish things off. Full ball on middle, Gabriel looks to flick but misses and gets rapped on the pads. An appeal is made and the finger has gone up. Gabriel takes the review but it seems in desperation. The Ultra Edge rolls in and it shows that there is no bat while the Ball Tracker shows that all reds. WEST INDIES ALL OUT FOR 271, LEADING BY 102 RUNS.  271/10

63.3 OUT! CASTLED! Commentator's curse! Ian Bishop on air just said after the previous delivery that he is aware of his off stump and here he sees his stumps shattered. Fuller in length and coming in with the angle. Lahiru Thirimanne looks to drive without much feet movement as he leaves a big gap between bat and pad. The ball sneaks through the gate to hit the top of off this time.  189/4

5 OUT! CAUGHT AT THIRD SLIP! The plan works brilliantly for West Indies and beautiful piece of bowling from Kemar Roach! Karunaratne falls early and Sri Lanka did not want that. Full ball outside off, Karunaratne looks to drive without moving his feet and it takes the outside edge and it goes towards third slip where John Campbell takes a simple catch. Sri Lanka still trail by 94 runs.  8/1

56.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What a start from Kyle Mayers and what an inspiring bowling change from Kraigg Brathwaite. An excellent innings ends in heartbreak for Oshada Fernando as he misses out on a century by 9 runs. We already saw Shikhar Dhawan and Jonny Bairstow miss out on their centuries in the first ODI between India and England earlier and now it is Oshada Fernando. Good length ball around off, it moves away. Fernando looks to defend but it takes the outside edge and goes to Da Silva, behind the stumps. He makes no mistake. This is also Mayers' first Test wicket.  170/2

58.5 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! And another one for Kyle Mayers! He is on a roll at the moment! He has been right on the money since he has come onto bowl. Good length ball on off, Chandimal is squared up as he looks to defend and it takes the outside edge and goes to the right of Da Silva who moves to that side and takes a good catch. Sri Lanka lead by 76.  178/3

86.5 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! What a response from Alzarri Joseph. This is exactly the start that West Indies would have wanted on Day 4. Perfect delivery. Good length ball on middle, Dhananjaya de Silva looks to flick but it goes off his pads and then uproots the off stump. Wow, this is some bowling.  259/5

139.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Finally, West Indies get the better of Pathum Nissanka but not after a majestic innings. End of a fabulous knock from the debutant. He can go back to the dressing room with his head held high. An inspirational innings from the new star of Sri Lankan cricket comes to an end. He has changed the dynamics of this game with his incredible ton. Take a bow! This man definitely has the potential to be a superstar for Sri Lanka. Rahkeem Cornwall breaks his duck for the innings. It has taken him 37.3 overs to get his first wicket. Flighted delivery around off, Nissanka goes for the big sweep. A shot which is incredibly tough to play against Cornwall as he generates some extra bounce off the deck. Maybe, the message from the dressing room was to add some quickfire runs and then put West Indies back to bat. Nissanka goes for the big slog sweep but the extra bounce sees it hit the upper part of his bat. It goes high in the air and straight to Kemar Roach at fine leg. He makes no mistake and takes the catch.  438/6

146.1 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Heartbreak for Dickwella! He will have to wait longer for his first Test tone! What disappointment but he has played a wonderful knock. Good length ball outside off, Dickwella looks to guide it to third man but gets an inside edge and the ball goes onto the stumps. Niroshan Dickwella is gutted and walks back. The dressing room have their hands up over their head.  460/7

147.3 OUT! RUN OUT! Indecision here and Lakmal is run out! This is what you will get more often than not when tailenders are batting. Flatter ball around off, Chameera guides it towards third man and takes off. He wants the second too and calls Lakmal but sees Blackwood has gotten the ball quickly, he sends Lakmal back but it is too late as Da Silva has whipped the bails off. Lakmal is nowhere in the picture.  462/8

149.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Dushmantha Chameera departs as well and Sri Lanka are bowled out. The 5th wicket falls in the final session and West Indies have a target to chase. Shortish around off, Chameera slogs it with the spin but does not time it well. He finds deep mid-wicket and Kyle Mayers there takes a simple catch. SRI LANK BOWLED OUT FOR 476! West Indies need 375 to win!  476/10

149.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Embuldeniya departs and Sri Lanka are 9 down. West Indies have made a comeback of sorts in this game now. The lead now is at 374 and all the West Indies players will be thinking of Chattogram! Flighted delivery on middle and off, Embuldeniya looks to smoke it over long off but he doesn't time it right. He finds Jason Holder there to perfection and the former West Indies Test skipper takes a simple catch.  476/9

39.3 OUT! BOWLED! The change of ends does the trick for Embuldeniya as he has given his side a big wicket and their first one of the day. It is the West Indies skipper, Kraigg Brathwaite who has been dismissed. Floated delivery on middle. Brathwaite comes down the track and looks to defend it away from his body hoping for some spin. No spin on this one as it just drifts and keeps straight off the deck. The ball keeps a tad low as well as it goes onto hit the stumps. The resistance, the partnership, and the fight is broken. Sri Lanka have finally struck in the first session of the final day.  78/2

6 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Vishwa Fernando deserves this wicket as he was bowling probing lines and lengths since the start and Sri Lanka get the early breakthrough. Sri Lanka are excited and rightly so. Good length ball around off, Campbell looks to defend but it takes the outside edge and goes to the keeper. Dickwella dives forward and takes a good catch.  12/1

75.4 OUT! CAUGHT! What a start to the final session for Sri Lanka! Lasith Embuldeniya has struck gold in the very first over of the final session of this game. We have seen wickets crumble in the last session of the day and this game continues to amaze us. Flighted delivery outside off, Mayers goes for a glorious drive through covers. The ball though turns a fraction and catches the outside edge of Mayers' willow. It goes quickly to Lahiru Thirimanne at slip. He fumbles initially but manages to hold on to the catch. The 105-run stand is broken and not the start West Indies would have wanted.  183/3

85.2 OUT! BOWLED! Second time in the game Blackwood has heard the awful sound of Timber. Vishwa gets a little bit of swing with pace and that is enough to see the back of Jermaine Blackwood! Vishwa comes around the wicket and makes the ball to nip back in to the right-hander. The ball also keeps low. Blackwood looks to clip it to the leg side but the ball hits the inside half of his bat, then the pads, and then goes onto hit the poles.  204/4
