In the opening match of this series, Sri Lankan spinners were very useful as Akila Dananjaya (3/62) got a hat-trick before conceding six sixes in an over against Kieron Pollard while Wanindu Hasaranga (3/12) also bowled very well. However, Caribbean bowlers were also disciplined who had lack of spinners. While Sri Lanka scored 131/9 (20 overs) in the first innings, West Indies chased down that target in 13.1 overs but losing 6 wickets.

In that game, batting was not very easy. Around 165+ total could be defendable.
