Last Wicket: 219 / 9 - M Dillon 4 (7)

Sri Lanka won by 6 runs

       Things all started to go pear shaped when Sarwan was hit and had to
        go off to hospital to be checked out
       Up until then West Indies had looked in control even though they
        had lost a few early wickets
       Jayasuriya did well using his bowlers to perfection with Vaas being
        the pick and likely to be named MoM in IMO
       Sri Lanka did well under some pressure after the poor performance
        in Nairobi
       Vaas indeed named for his wonderful spell and has been the arrow in
        the quiver that Sanath carries
       Sri Lanka now basically through no matter what but there is still
        lots to play for
       Be sure to be here as we continue to bring coverage of the World
        Cup with Bangladesh vs Kenya and the India vs Pakistan game which
        is sure to be a great one tomorrow

End of over 50 (7 runs) West Indies 222/9 (RR: 4.44 RRR: 7/0 = 0.00)
PW Gunaratne 6-1-41-0 (4w) - Kelvin Grove End
RR Sarwan 47* (44b 4x4 2x6) PT Collins 1* (1b)

  49.6 Gunaratne to Sarwan, one run, smears it down to deep bwd square and
        end just 7 runs short
  49.5 Gunaratne to Collins, one run, thick outside edge to Fernando at
        3rd man again, was finer but once again he is easily able to get
        there
