NORTH SOUND – World No.1 all-rounder Jason Holder grabbed two crucial wickets with the second new ball and West Indies were making headway against Sri Lanka in the second Test in Antigua, before rain curtailed play.
Holder took two for 40 from 21 overs and fellow pacer Alzarri Joseph snared two for 64 from 22 overs, and the Sri Lankans reached 250 for eight at the close, replying to West Indies first innings total of 354, on the rain-marred third day of the match at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.
Advantage, Windies

NORTH SOUND, Antigua – Rain wrecked the final two sessions on the third day of the second Test today, allowing only 1-¾ hours play and stalling West Indies’ push for a victory in the decisive affair at the Vivian Richards Cricket Stadium.
The home side were homing in for the kill when they reduced Sri Lanka to 250 for eight in their first innings in the last session which got underway at 4:15 pm (Eastern Caribbean time) following a protracted rain break.
However, adverse weather swept across the ground again at 5:07 pm, halting play for the fourth and final time, and ending any hopes West Indies entertained of claiming the last two Sri Lankan wickets ahead of the penultimate day on Thursday.
