Sri Lanka A v West Indies - 3 day First Class match 1991/2 - Sri Lanka A 1st Innings

Sri Lanka A v West Indies - 3 day First Class match 1991/2 - Premadasa Stadium Colombo

Sri Lanka A began their reply badly, as the West Indies pace bowlers took early wickets.
With the support bowlers also making regular breakthroughs, Sri Lanka A were forced to follow on 173 runs behind.
The ease with which the batsmen lost their wickets to the lesser bowlers was particularly disappointing for the home team, but the West Indies deserved praise for an excellent allround bowling and fielding effort.
Ambrose lead the way with 3 wickets, but the others were not far behind him, and it was the perfect hit out for the visitors before the ODI and Test series begins,
With most of their batsmen spending time in the middle in the 1st innings, West Indies elected to enforce the follow on and chase victory rather than opt for more batting practice.
