Sri Lanka vs West Indies: 1st Test day 1 Social Feed

Sri Lanka end day with 250/2. It's been a slow day in terms of run scoring. They would like to score faster tomorrow.

#SLvWI Sri Lanka 231/2. Dimuth Karunaratne 126, Chandimal 63. This partnership now worth 130 runs. We need to break it.

Like Virender Sehwag would have done, Dimuth Karunaratne smashes a big six over deep mid-wicket to reach his 3rd Test ton. #SLvWI

So much expected from Thirimanne. A disappointing end to his innings,

WICKET! #SLvWI Sri Lanka 101/2. Thirimanne c sub (R Chandrika) b Bishoo 16. Got his man now though. Well done Bishoo! Windies strike!

Sri Lanka have been very patient so far. Their run rate is just above two. 84/1 in 36 overs.

Lahiru Thirimanne has come out to bat at number 3. Has huge shoes to fill.
