West Indies v Sri Lanka 2007-08 / Scorecard

Sri Lanka in West Indies ODI Series - 2nd ODI

West Indies v Sri Lanka

West Indies won by 7 wickets (with 27 balls remaining) (D/L method)

ODI no. 2699 | 2007/08 season
Played at Queen's Park Oval, Port of Spain, Trinidad
12 April 2008 (50-over match)


Sri Lanka innings (30.3 overs maximum)		R	B	4s	6s	SR
WU Tharanga	c Taylor b Bravo	40	82	5	0	48.78
22.3 Short, wide, slashed to wide third man. Tharanga's laborious effort comes to an end. He sliced it to left of Taylor who held on to it. Bravo punches his fist in delight. 78/2
ML Udawatte	c Chattergoon b Taylor	14	20	3	0	70.00
8.3 Done in by the slower one. He rolled his fingers around the ball and Udawatte was early into his lofted square drive and it went high, really high, in air towards backward point where Chattergoon stationed himself. It swerved in the air as it dropped down, Chattergoon ran towards his right, stopped, went left, moved right and some how, managed to hang on to the delivery, lunging to his left at the last minute. 38/1
KC Sangakkara†	c Sarwan b Gayle	28	51	2	0	54.90
28.3 soft dismissal! Gayle bowls a loopy full toss from around the stumps, sliding down leg stump, but Sangakkara can only sweep it to square leg 105/3
K Weeraratne	c Bravo b Sammy	15	20	0	0	75.00
29.2 The fourth wicket is down. Full in length, width outside off stump and he square drove uppishly but straight to backward point. Weeraratne is gone and Sri Lanka slid further. 109/4
DPMD Jayawardene*	not out	4	5	0	0	80.00

LPC Silva	b Gayle	2	5	0	0	40.00
30.3 one more wicket even as rain drops fall. Really full delivery, he went forward, the left leg went across and he ended up yorking himself. He tried to jab it away but the ball squeezed through just before the bat could come down. It is raining wickets here at Port-of-Spain. 112/5
Extras	(lb 8, w 1)	9

Total	(5 wickets; 30.3 overs)	112	(3.67 runs per over)
