THE WEST Indies will wait until the last minute before deciding whether or not to risk injured strike bowler Fidel Edwards in today’s World Twenty20 semi-final against Sri Lanka at the Brit Oval.
Team spokesman Philip Spooner said Edwards was suffering from an irritation of a nerve root in his lower back. ‘He won’t bowl today but we are very optimistic he will be available for tomorrow’s match,’ he said. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara, whose unbeaten team will play at the venue for the first time this tournament, feels more pace and bounce could assist his spinners and batsmen. ‘It seems a pretty even track with good bounce and will stay consistent throughout,’ he added.
