Full commentary
11.50pm That is it from the ODI series where Sri Lanka have emerged convincing winners. Until the T20 series, see ya
11.30pm And now the umpires get together. A steady drizzle at the moment and the umpires call for the covers. The crowd leave and the players shake hands. It looks like that is it. Yes, it is. Sri Lanka win by 19 runs and complete a D/L win. SL complete a 3-0 series win. Anti-climax but that's how it ends. The rain fittingly has had the final say after it has affected all matches of this series. West Indies struggled from the start of the innings and couldn't find wickets from anywhere. They were sloppy in the field and conceded too many runs early. Kusal struck his second successive fifty and carried SL closer to their revised D/L target. Eventually they cantered home and completed the match with a D/L win.
Man of the Series is Kusal Perera
Man of the Match is Marlon Samuels
