West Indies lose the 3-match series, 2-0
Sri Lanka 121 for 1 (Perera 52*, Dulani 34*; Fletcher 1-14) beat West Indies 119 for 5 (Henry 32*, Dottin 28; Ranaweera 2-16) by 9 wickets
The West Indies suffered a 9-wicket defeat to Sri Lanka in the 3rd Women’s T20I in St. George's, Grenada, on Tuesday, following another tame effort with the bat. The Caribbean side once again failed to score faster than a run-a-ball before the Sri Lankan openers scripted a comfortable win.
With 120 runs to get, Hasini Perera and player of the series Chamari Athapaththu once again laid a sturdy platform for the visiting team’s chase. The duo put on 49 runs (42 balls) for the first wicket before Athapaththu fell for a potential match-snatching 22-ball 32.
Perera (52*) was joined by Imesha Dulani (34*), and the pair shared in an unbroken 72-run 2nd wicket stand, which saw Sri Lanka home without much fuss with 14 balls to spare, at 121 for 1.
