Sri Lanka will tackle West Indies within the first match of the ODI collection, set to start on October 20 on the Pallekele Worldwide Cricket Stadium. The hosts, led by Charith Asalanka, will look to hold ahead the momentum from their latest T20I collection win towards the Caribbean aspect.
West Indies, below the management of Shai Hope, will goal to bounce again after a 2-1 defeat within the 3-match T20I collection. Each groups can be desperate to make a powerful begin on this ODI leg, with the Pallekele pitch more likely to supply a aggressive battle between bat and ball.
