The hosts West Indies secured a fantastic 5 wicket victory over Sri Lanka in 2nd ODI to ensure series win. Evin Lewis starred in the vicotry with majestic 103. Lewis recorded a 192 run opening wicket stand with 1st ODI centurion Shai Hope (84) as West Indies chased down Sri Lanka’s target of 273 Runs.

Earlier Sri Lanka, for their part, put a decent total on the board through Gunathilaka’s fine 96, Chandimal’s anchoring half-century, and some late impetus from Hasaranga.

The win means West Indies take the three-match series 2-0 with a game to go, and register two consecutive ODI wins for the first time since 2014.
