It's concerning how little coverage the non big 4 series get these days (not only on TV and in the media but also the SM) I didn't even know that SL, WI , Ban and Zim are all in action today until I opened Cricinfo. Came to know of the T20 between Aus and SAF after the game finished.

Windies not quite managing the late order flourish which they seem to produce against us most of the time

[ssurenn]

Windies end their 50 overs on 289-7

[Forward Defence]

Hayden Walsh and Keemo Paul are useful bats down the order

Spoke too soon perhaps , WI scored 94 in the last 10 but from different batsmen Walsh jr and Keemo. I was expecting Pooran and Pollard to take it well past 300 though. It will be a good chase. 50-50

They are quite useful coming in at 8 and 9. Even the real tailenders after them can tonk a few.

SL wins in nail biting fashion in the last over after botching up the run chase.
