West Indies vs Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka shows defiance as visitors trail by 104 runs on rain-affected Day 3

Firstpost  

Antigua and Barbuda: Pathum Nissanka kept the West Indies at bay, with Sri Lanka limping to the close at 250 for eight in reply to the home side’s first-innings total of 354 on a rain-affected third day of the second and final Test in Antigua on Wednesday. Nissanka’s determination for almost three hours, in which he faced 119 deliveries and struck four boundaries, could yet prove beneficial for Sri Lanka should the other overnight batsman, Lasith Embuldeniya, and last man Vishwa Fernando replicate the resistance shown by the West Indian lower order in their first innings. Pathum Nissanka of Sri Lanka get runs off Jason Holder of West Indies during Day 3 of the second Test between West Indies and Sri Lanka. Rare wicket for Blackwood With the lunch interval beckoning West Indies had even greater cause for celebration when De Silva was adjudged leg-before for 39 to the first delivery of the morning bowled by Blackwood.
