The ODI series between West Indies and Sri Lanka was hampered by rain as two out of three matches got abandoned. The Lankan Lions won the first ODI and were the victorious team. The caravan now shifts towards the T20Is as the hosts will aim for revenge.

The West Indies are a strong T20I unit, and they clearly have a better squad than Sri Lanka in the format. However, cricket battles are won on the field, and the Windies will need to prove their worth in the first T20I at Sabina Park, Kingston Jamaica, on Friday.

The two teams have collided 18 times in the format, with the Sri Lankan side having the upper hand (10 wins). The visitors will hope to continue the good work in the upcoming matches, and ahead of the first T20I, we take a look at the WI Vs SL Sabina Park pitch report and Jamaica’s weather update for the riveting fixture.
