WI/SL 2nd Test ‘A’ team Test…Rain wash out 2nd day’s play

Jun 14, 2013 Sports

Heavy rain in St Vincent yesterday washed play without a ball being bowled on the second day of the second ‘A’ team Test match between hosts West Indies ‘A’ and Sri Lanka ‘A’
The rain left the ground waterlogged and although the weather improved after Tea no play was possible and the Umpires, Joel Wilson and Peter Nero called off the day’s play.
Play on the third day today is scheduled to commence at 09:30hrs.  On the opening day Kaushal Silva smashed 14 boundaries in a polished unbeaten 115 and got support from Angelo Perera (50) and Chaturanga deSilva (33) spurred the visitors to 268-6 when stumps were drawn.
Jonathon Carter (2-51) and Miguel Cummings (2-49) had made early inroads to leave Sri Lanka on 52-3 before Silva and Perera consolidated the position with a 108-run fourth wicket stand before left arm spinner Niketa Miller removed Perera.
Guyanese left-arm spinner Veerasammy Permaul (1-64 from 22 overs) then bowled deSilva just before the close to leave the Asians in a strong position at the end of day one.
