IML 2025: West Indies Masters Beat Sri Lanka By 6-run, To Meet India Masters In Final
Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International: West Indies Masters came up with a clinical all-round performance to register a six-run win over Sri Lanka Masters in the second semifinal of the International Masters League (IML) 2025 and set up a date with the Sachin Tendulkar-led India Masters in Sunday’s title clash. West Indies rode on a half-century by Denesh Ramdin and an equally effective knock from Brian Lara, before Tino Best’s four-wicket burst to overcome the Sri Lankans at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium here on Friday.
Lara rolled back the years, leading his side’s fightback with a stroke-filled 41 against a disciplined Sri Lanka Masters attack before Denesh Ramdin provided the late flourish with an explosive unbeaten 50 to propel the West Indies Masters to 179/5. In reply, Sri Lanka Masters could never recover from the early jolts before Tino Best came up with an incisive spell of pace bowling, taking four wickets to eventually restrict the Islanders to 173/9.
Put in to bat, the West Indies Masters were rocked early with the in-form Dwayne Smith falling cheaply. But William Perkins (24) and Lendl Simmons (17) steadied the innings, weathering the powerplay storm with a gritty 43-run partnership.
