WI vs SL — Second ODI between West Indies and Sri Lanka washed out

The second One Day International between the West Indies and Sri Lanka was abandoned because of rain Saturday without a ball being bowled.

Sri Lanka leads the three-match series 1-0 after winning the first game by 41 runs, giving former Proteas star Gary Kirsten his first win as Sri Lanka coach and the tourists first ODI win in the Caribbean in 13 years.

West Indies had earlier won the toss and elected to bowl first before unrelenting rain at Sabina Park forced the umpires to call off the day-night match around 6.30pm local time with no play possible.

Only a few, hardy fans remained until the end.

The third match will be played at Kingston on Monday and will be followed by three Twenty20 internationals and two test matches.
