| West Indies won the toss and will bowl | |||
| Hello and welcome to the coverage of the second match in the three-match one-day international series between West Indies and Sri Lanka, once again being played at the Queen's Park Oval in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad. | |||
| If match one is anything to go by, we are in for another absolute belter here again. The game could have gone either way right up to the last over, the last two balls, even the very last delivery before Shiv Chanderpaul smashed a maximum off Chaminda Vaas' uncharacteristic full-toss to win the contest. Given the close nature of the game two days ago, both sides will be able to take some | |||
| However, the series score is 1-0 to the home side and they will want to add to that here again today and follow the impressive Dwayne Bravo's lead. Bravo stood head and shoulders above everyone else so Sri Lanka will have to watch for him carefully. | |||
| Neither side will be too keen to make any changes but the West Indian bowling was a little light so Daren Powell might get a recall while Runako Morton could return for the out-of-sorts Marlon Samuels.Sri Lanka's pace bowling might get an alteration too with Kaushalya Weeraratne the next man in line for a place. | |||
| It will be the 45th time that these two sides have played in one-day internationals, but incredibly only the eighth in the Caribbean (they have played 29 on neutral ground!). The head-to-head record favours the home side 25-18 with one no-result but in the Caribbean, Sri Lanka lead 4-3 in the seven games to date. | |||
| This will be the 58th one-day international to be held on this ground and the West Indies have a moderate record. In 47 previous matches, they have won 26, lost 17 and had four no-results. For Sri Lanka, this will be their seventh match here and they have won four of the previous six but they haven't played the West Indies here since 1997 prior to this series - with the hosts holding a 2-1 lead. | |||
| The highest individual score for West Indies v Sri Lanka is 181 by Vivian Richards at Karachi in 1987/1988. | |||
| The highest individual score for Sri Lanka v West Indies is 132 by Avishka Gunawardene at Nairobi in 2000/2001. | |||
| The best bowling performance for West Indies v Sri Lanka is 5-1 by Courtney Walsh at Sharjah in 1986/1987. | |||
| The best bowling performance for Sri Lanka v West Indies is 6-14 by Farveez Maharoof at Mumbai in 2006/2006. | |||
| It's the same two umpires for this game - ICC Elite umpire or the Year Simon Taufel being joined by local man Clyde Duncan. Goaland Greaves is the third umpire while Chris Broad of England is the match referee. | |||
