Preview :
The 3rd T20I match of the West Indies tour of Sri Lanka 2024 will see Sri Lanka (SL) squaring off against West Indies (WI) at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium in Dambulla on Thursday, October 17. The series is currently squared at 1-1 with Sri Lanka making a remarkable comeback to secure a 73-run win in the 2nd T20I. On the other hand, West Indies who showcased a splendid batting display in the 1st T20I, struggled completely against spin in the 2nd T20I to falter for just 89.
Sri Lanka learned a valuable lesson and introduced additional spin in the form of debutant Dunith Wellalage for the 2nd T20I and it paid massive rewards as the 21-year-old returned with the figures of 3 for 9 in his 4 overs. Sri Lankans knew what they were doing and had no hesitation whatsoever in batting first after winning the toss on a slightly tacky surface and managed a competitive 162 for 5 in the allotted 20 overs. Pathum Nissanka starred with the bat, scoring his 12th T20I half-century before departing for 54 to a well-directed yorker from Alzarri Joseph. They largely operated with spin, bowling 13.1 overs in the overall 16.1 overs, which shows their strength in that area. They will be keen to trap the visitors yet again with their spin magic in the series decider on Thursday.
West Indies who were generally big hitters and liked the ball coming onto the bat, couldn’t cope against the spin in the 2nd T20I as a result gave up the match quite easily, losing all their 10 wickets for paltry 89 runs. They were exposed to the rank turners for the first time in the tour and they handed 9 wickets for spin which was completely contrasting to the surface they batted on in the 1st T20I. Only Sherfane Rutherford (14), Rovman Powell (20), and Alzarri Joseph (16) make the double-digit scores. They made one change bringing in Andre Fletcher in place of Shai Hope which proved costly. They must strengthen their spin cordon to counter Sri Lanka in the 3rd and final T20I.
