Sri Lanka enforced the follow-on after a Rangana Herath six-wicket haul helped bowl West Indies out for 251, five overs after tea on the third day of the Galle Test.
West Indies’ lower order had raised hopes of getting past the follow-on mark, with Roach adding 46 with Jerome Taylor for the eighth wicket and 34 with Devendra Bishoo for the ninth, but Herath ensured they fell 34 runs short.
The left-arm spinner dismissed Kemar Roach and last man Shannon Gabriel off successive deliveries, in the second over after Sri Lanka took the second new ball, to finish with figures of 6 for 68.
