A win in the second match of the three T20s tied the two teams at 1-1 and the fate of the third match now remains to be seen. The second match saw the dominance of the spinners which helped the Sri Lankan team win in a big way. The surprising thing is that West Indies lost 9 wickets due to spinners. Now we have to wait for the third T20 match to decide the series.
A win for the Sri Lanka team in the 2nd T20 makes things interesting for the last and final T20 match. Also, we know that Sri Lanka played well in the 2nd match while England were good in the first match. This makes it very difficult to predict who will win the last and the final T20 match. The third match will be played tomorrow at Dambulla. It was a stunning performance by the Sri Lanka team to defend this score.
West Indies lost the first 5 wickets at 38 runs and after that it was just surviving for as long as they could. Winning after such a poor start was just not possible and was an impossible task. West Indies need to focus on their batting and if they win the toss, they should bat first. Maybe they got a bit under pressure after seeing the runs to chase but it should not be the case as 160+ target was a moderate target.
