The fans witnessed quite an entertaining incident in the second Test match which is underway at Galle. The incident involved West Indies keeper Joshua de Silva and Sri Lanka’s Dhananjaya de Silva. Da Silva was caught by De Silva in the first game and it was a payback time for De Silva in the second Test.
The first match, which also took place in Galle was won by Sri Lanka by a big margin of 187 runs. The hosts put up a great show with the bat and didn’t give West Indies any chance to revive.
The hundred-run partnership between Joshua Da Silva and Bonner was the highlight of the West Indies inning, however that couldn’t prevent the loss for the Windies. Joshua da Silva was caught by Dhananjaya de Silva and the former took his revenge in the second Test match.
