Within the first sport of the day, it was a barely improved efficiency from West Indies after they had been crushed by 9 wickets by India of their opener, but it surely was not sufficient to problem Sri Lanka, who ran away 81-run victors.
Batting first after successful the toss, Sri Lanka rode on contributions from opener Sanjana Kavindi (39 off 36 balls), captain and No. 3 batter Manudi Nanayakkara (41 off 31) and middle-order bat Dahami Sanethma (31 not out off 25), in addition to 36 extras to place up an enormous whole.
The goal of 167 might need been an excessive amount of for West Indies to get to anyway, and left-arm spinner Chamodi Praboda’s spell within the powerplay, the place she accounted for Asabi Callender, Naijanni Cumberbatch and Jahzara Claxton, put the outcome past doubt.
There have been pockets of resistance after the preliminary setbacks, particularly from captain Samara Ramnath, who scored a 23-ball 24 opening the innings, however there wasn’t a lot of notice from the opposite batters – Claxton, Amrita Ramtahal and Kenika Casaar had been the one others to simply about make it into double digits.
Aseni Thalagune took 2 for 16 to enrich Praboda’s 3 for 16, and West Indies, at all times effectively behind the asking fee, solely obtained so far as 90.
