With the focus shifted from the shortest format to the longest today the West Indies senior team will battle Sri Lanka in the first of a three-test match series at the Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad and Tobago.
Sri Lanka is the higher ranked team, sixth, to ninth by the Windies and statistical form and the composition of the teams appear to be different since they last met in 2015.
Sri Lanka capitalized on a good warm-up match against the Cricket West Indies President’s XI where three of their batsmen notched up half centuries while skipper, Dinesh Chandimal sent a message to the West Indians with a fine century as the Sri Lanks continue to search for their first series win in the region.
