Pallekele, March 5: West Indies beat Sri Lanka by 25 runs here on Wednesday to take an unassailable 1-0 lead in the series. Tasked with chasing a target of 197, Sri Lanka folded for 171 with fast bowler Oshane Thomas taking five wickets and thus being declared player of the match.

Sri Lanka lost five wickets in what was a disastrous first five overs of the chase. Three of these fell in the second over that was bowler by Thomas. Dismissing opener Avishka Fernando and Shehan Jayasuriya off the third and fourth ball, he missed out on a hat-trick but took the third off the last ball of the over in the form of Kusal Mendis.
