Sri Lanka secure a comfortable victory, delivering a dominant all-round performance. West Indies made a promising start in the powerplay, but their momentum was halted when both openers fell in quick succession. Shai Hope showed great determination with a fighting knock despite carrying an injury, but he was unable to convert his 56 into a bigger score. The Sri Lanka bowlers maintained constant pressure throughout the chase, striking at regular intervals and never allowing the West Indies batters to build substantial partnerships. Dushmantha Chameera was the standout performer, leading the attack brilliantly with four wickets and playing a key role in sealing the win. Kusal Mendis was named Player of the Match for his wonderful 72.
