The second one-day international cricket match held in relation to the West Indies team's tour of Sri Lanka is scheduled to start tomorrow (23rd) at 2.30 pm at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium.

However, Sri Lanka, who won the first one-day match held recently, has now taken the lead in the series by 1-0 matches. Accordingly, if this match is won, Sri Lanka will be able to win the 3-match ODI series with one match remaining.

However, the last time Sri Lanka won an ODI series against the West Indies was in 2019. At that time, Sri Lanka won the 3-match series 3-0.

Accordingly, there is no doubt that Sri Lanka's plan is to control the West Africans using the strategy used in the first match for this match as well. In other words, Sri Lanka's strategy will be to break the rhythm of the West batsmen on the Pallekele pitch by using more spinners.

Sources of the Sri Lankan team also state that there is more opportunity to use the same team that played for the first match.

Also, it is a must to win this match for the West Africans to stay in the tournament. As in the first match, the challenge from the West Indian fast bowlers on the Pallekele pitch can never be underestimated.
