Brathwaite leads from the front but WI bowling fails to break through against S/Lanka After Kraigg Brathwaite West Indies’ largely encouraging First Test performance, the selectors surprised many with the XI they announced for the Second Test against Dimuth Karunaratne’s Sri Lanka. But the unchanged side earned an honourable draw, entirely justifying the panel’s faith in them and reinforcing the idea that the best XI is not always the 11 best. With 98 overs left in the game at the end of Day Four, Win Predictor put at 5% the visitors’ chances of winning and taking the series 1-0. Even before Friday morning rains cut a chunk out of that minimum number, the Sri Lankans must either have agreed with the guess or been satisfied with a 0-0 outcome.
