Congratulations WI! The score never seemed out of reach, but a special mention to Vandersay for bowling brilliantly. #SLvWI #WT20 #AKLive

Spin brought #SL back into the contest…another leggie doing well in T20. #WI two big overs away from a win. #Bing #DimagSay #SLvWI

Fletcher smashed it for Zouks at last @CPL good to see him getting an opportunity here #SLvWI

I hope it's nothing too serious with @henrygayle but just a #masterstroke to give the other batsmen the responsibility to bring it home 4 us

— Brian Lara (@BrianLara) March 20, 2016

Good 50 by Andre Fletcher important he see us through to the end. Team needs to know where they stand with no contribution from @henrygayle

— Brian Lara (@BrianLara) March 20, 2016

Disappointment for Sri Lanka AND the crowd – every wicket falling is 1 closer to seeing @henrygayle

— Jonty Rhodes (@JontyRhodes8) March 20, 2016

Reminder:

Sri Lanka is playing this tournament as defending champions…

— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) March 20, 2016

Ominous start by #Srilanka especially from Dilshan pitch looks good!

— Brian Lara (@BrianLara) March 20, 2016

I think verse 47 of the Sri Lanka anthem is my favourite.

When the West Indies becomes an IPL franchise they should play their home games in Bangalore

Tell you what .. @westindies might take some stopping at this World Cup … #UniverseBoss #ICCWT20

— Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) March 20, 2016

Dilshan putting the rest of us old men2shame -39 and still going strong! #WT20 it's not a problem diving – it's the landing that hurts now

— Jonty Rhodes (@JontyRhodes8) March 20, 2016

There is definitely a strong Wind(ies) but it ain't no Gayle #WT20

— Jonty Rhodes (@JontyRhodes8) March 20, 2016

A very convincing bowling performance from the Windies so far on a very good batting track. Confidence on the field looks high! #keepitup

— Brian Lara (@BrianLara) March 20, 2016

I think Dilshan Seen my Tweet about positive batting Start inning with SIX and Four…… #WT20 #SLvsWI

It was in the air

There was huge cheer from the crowd

as they want to see Gayle

but there is twist

Kulasekara dropped the catch 😉

— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) March 20, 2016

Chris Gayle was about to come

Huge Cheer from the Crowd

but match official said

He should wait for either

11 mins or 2 wickets to fall

— Broken Cricket (@BrokenCricket) March 20, 2016

Wanting another Gayle show… Know its a bit too biased but being a West-indian fan and a Gayle fan can enjoy from the comm box
