WI vs SL: Sri Lanka Bowlers Peg Back West Indies In First Test

By AFP News March 23, 2021 • 10:27 AM View: 3608

Sri Lanka claimed wickets at both ends of a dour morning session which produced just 59 runs as they restricted West Indies to 72 for two in reply to the tourists' paltry first innings of 169 on the second day of the first Test in Antigua on Monday.

In between the dismissals of captain Kraigg Brathwaite and Nkrumah Bonner, the hosts crawled along with a second-wicket partnership of 56 in 21 overs between Bonner and fellow-Jamaican John Campbell.
