Summary
Justin Greaves delivered a legendary innings, smashing a career-best 180 in a marathon eight-hour knock to steer West Indies to 499, staving off Sri Lanka’s late charge and keeping the match alive for a potential draw. His patient, masterful batting forged a crucial century stand with Shai Hope—whose wicket fell bizarrely off a ricochet off the keeper’s glove. Asitha Fernando’s five-wicket haul gave Sri Lanka momentum, but Greaves kept grinding with the tail, ensuring West Indies’ total held firm. Despite losing wickets, the West Indies’ resilience and early bowling success kept Sri Lanka at bay, leaving the match poised for a dramatic conclusion on day five.
