WI vs SL Stats : West Indies will take on Sri Lanka in the second T20I match in Antigua late tonight (6 March). West Indies lead 1-0 in the series after an easy 6 wickets win in the first T20I at the same venue and will look to seal the series with yet another good performance. Their bowling was spot on as they didn’t allow Sri Lanka to score runs freely and then in batting chased down the target with ease. The likes of Chris Gayle and NIcholas Pooran who bagged duck in the first match will look to score big runs while Sri Lanka who have struggled in all formats for a long time need to deliver and their senior batsmen Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal have to step up and finisher Thisara Perera needs to bat sensibly and openers need to convert their starts into big knocks.
