West Indies vs Sri Lanka 2nd ODI at Trinidad

WI v SL, 2nd ODI, Trinidad: West Indies claim series victory (2:0)

Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Marlon Samuels hit unbeaten half centuries Saturday to pilot West Indies to a series-clinching, seven-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the rain-shortened second one-day cricket at Queen's Park Oval.
Veteran Chanderpaul, hero of the opening match win, struck 52 not out off 42 balls and shared an unbroken fourth-wicket stand of 107 off 88 balls with Samuels. The West Indies, chasing a revised target of 125 off 25 overs, reached the mark with 4.3 overs to spare.
Samuels returned to form with an undefeated 54 off 49 deliveries. The right-hander hit three sixes and three fours. The pair rescued the home team from 18 for three in the sixth over as Nuwan Kulasekara (three for 28) sliced through the top order.
Sri Lanka had earlier limped to 112 for five off 30.3 overs either side of an hour-long rain delay. Upul Tharanga topscored with 40 off 81 balls but the visitors were stalled by the rain at 83 for two off 24.1 overs. On resumption, Sri Lanka lost three quick wickets before heavy rain returned and caused a delay of almost four hours.
Captain Chris Gayle grabbed two cheap wickets as the home team seized the advantage before the second delay.
