Six runs. SIX! Dilshan Madushanka to Rovman Powell. Reverse Swing-Out length ball, down leg side on the front foot flick, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. That's it! West Indies open their account on this tour with a deserved victory over Sri Lanka and take a 1-0 lead in the T20I series. Brandon King and Shai Hope laid the foundation with a 67-run opening stand, putting the hosts firmly in control. Sri Lanka fought back through some disciplined bowling after the dismissal of Shimron Hetmyer, making the chase a little tense. However, Shai Hope anchored the innings brilliantly with an unbeaten 65 to guide West Indies home. Wanindu Hasaranga was the standout bowler for Sri Lanka with two wickets. Jason Holder is the Player of the Match.
