Sri Lanka and West Indies face off in the second ODI of the three-match series, with Sri Lanka having won the first match and looking to secure a series win. The hosts have already claimed victory in the T20I series and will be aiming for a white-ball series double. West Indies, on the other hand, will be determined to force a decider in Saturday's final match.
After a convincing DLS-inflicted win in the first ODI, Sri Lanka will take on West Indies again in the second match of the series. Led by Charith Asalanka, Sri Lanka has been in top form, winning their last 6 ODIs. On the other hand, West Indies, under the leadership of Shai Hope, have struggled in their last few ODIs. Both teams will be looking to secure a win in this crucial match and take the lead in the series.
Sri Lanka won the first one-day international against the West Indies by 5 wickets under the rain-affected DLS method. The hosts successfully chased a target of 186 in 31.5 overs with 31 balls remaining. The second and third ODIs between the two teams will be held on October 23rd and 25th respectively.
