Pollard's 6 Sixes Help West Indies Win 1st T20I Against Sri Lanka

By IANS News March 04, 2021 • 10:42 AM View: 2792

Kieron Pollard smashed six sixes in an over off Sri Lanka's Akila Dananjaya, who had picked a hat-trick only in the previous over, as West Indies won the first T20I by four wickets at the Coolidge Cricket Ground on Thursday. Chasing a target of 132, Pollard's rampage in the sixth over helped the West Indies reach 134/6 in 13.1 overs.

West Indies had earlier done well to restrict Sri Lanka to 131/9. However, Dananjaya's hat-trick in the fourth over made the visitors favorites to win the match despite the low total. Dananjaya is the third Sri Lankan to pick up a hat-trick after Thisara Perera and Lasith Malinga.
