Women’s T20 WC: Matthews Stars As West Indies Outclass Sri Lanka To Extend Unbeaten Run
T20 World Cup: West Indies continued their unbeaten run in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup with a five-wicket victory over Sri Lanka at the County Ground in Bristol on Sunday, riding on captain Hayley Matthews' incisive new-ball spell before overcoming a few stumbles in the chase to reach the 99-run target in 16.1 overs. The result lifted West Indies to three wins from as many matches, while Sri Lanka were left to rue another batting collapse and a series of costly lapses in the field.
After electing to bowl, Matthews ensured West Indies seized control almost immediately. She struck with the opening over by removing Vishmi Gunaratne for one with a sharp return catch, then returned to dismiss Chamari Athapaththu for two and Harshitha Samarawickrama for a duck in the space of four deliveries. Sri Lanka were reduced to 9/3 inside three overs and spent the remainder of the innings trying to rebuild.
Imesha Dulani briefly counterattacked with 17 off 19 balls, while Kavisha Dilhari attempted to stabilise the innings with a composed 21 from 20 deliveries. The pair put together a useful stand before Chinelle Henry broke through by removing Dulani, after which Aaliyah Alleyne produced a fine caught-and-bowled effort to send back Dilhari.
