West Indies beat Sri Lanka by 5 wickets

West Indies 274 for 5 (Lewis 103, Hope 84) beat Sri Lanka 273 for 8 (Gunathilaka 96, Hasaranga 47, Mohammed 3-47) by five wickets.

The win means West Indies now take the three-match series 2-0 with a game to go, and register two consecutive ODI wins for the first time since 2014.

Kieron Pollard: "It was a total team performance. Our best chance was chasing so it was good to see the boys sticking to the their plans."

Dimuth Karunaratne: "We lost early wickets but the two batsmen who got runs couldn't convert it. The spinners are expected to take wickets, but West Indies batted really well. We lacked wicket-taking options and that's why we couldn't put pressure on West Indies."

The player of the match is Evin Lewis: "I feel very proud. I totally back myself and my ability. I looked for a good start in the powerplay and pushed on from there. Playing the 50-overs last month helped me. My confidence was there, so I tried to execute. This is probably one of the best wickets in Antigua. From the next game I will look to carry the game deep
