9.2 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! The googly does the trick for Wanindu! Slips in the googly, fuller and slower, at the stumps, Tim Robinson lunges to push it down the ground with a straight bat but fails to pick the googly. Expects the ball to turn away but it spins back in to go past the inside edge. The ball goes through the gap between the bat and the pad to crash into the stumps. 82/2

| Rachin Ravindra | 1 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 25 |

2.3 OUT! GONE! CAUGHT AT MID ON! Rachin Ravindra has skied the shot and has paid the price! Short of a length, from over the wicket, around middle, the ball climbs onto the batter. Rachin Ravindra makes room and tries to flat bat it from the back foot. The ball hits high on the bat and goes straight up behind the bowler where Matheesha Pathirana from mid on comes in and takes a simple catch to his right with both hands. NZ are 13/1. 13/1

| Mark Chapman | 42 | 29 | 2 | 2 | 144.82 |
|
13.2 OUT! STUMPED! Hasaranga comes and Hasaranga strikes! Dishes out the googly from over the wicket, fuller and slower, going across the batter, Mark Chapman gives the bowler the charge and looks to go over long off. Gets done in the flight and he fails to get to the pitch of the ball. The ball spins past the bat and the keeper Kusal Mendis does the rest with Chapman well out of his crease. Chapman goes for 42 (29). New Zealand are now 116/3 after 13.2 overs. 116/3

| Glenn Phillips | 23 | 16 | 2 | 1 | 143.75 |
|
14.3 OUT! TAKEN! Pathirana strikes on his return to the attack! Stays over the wicket and angles it back into the right-hander, on a length, on the pads, Glenn Phillips stays deep in his crease and gets his front pad out of the way quickly to swipe it away. The ball catches the inner half of the bat and the bat turns in his hand. It goes flat towards deep mid-wicket where Pathum Nissanka does well to lean to his right and complete the catch. Both set batters back in the hut for New Zealand. A good phase for Sri Lanka. 122/4

Fernando gets across to his right quickly and picks the ball up with his right hand. Turns around and scores a direct hit at the bowling end, catching Mitchell short of his crease. A big wicket for Sri Lanka. 145/5

9.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Jacob Duffy strikes gold for New Zealand on his return to the attack. This one is bowled slower through the air and on the stumps, on a back of a length, Pathum Nissanka shuffles across to scoop it over short fine leg but is not able to give enough power to it. Matt Henry moves smartly towards his right to complete a diving catch at short fine leg. 71/2

| Kusal Mendis Wk | 10 | 12 | 1 | 0 | 83.33 |

4.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Expertly held by Daryl Mitchell! Mitchell Santner strikes with his first delivery. Darted in from around the wicket, on a nagging length, on off, Mendis makes room to go over the in-field on the off side. Fails to get the connection right and it goes only as far as the edge of the ring. Daryl Mitchell from cover and Mark Chapman from extra cover converge. Chapman would have been in his eyesight but Mitchell does well to take it over his right shoulder while sliding. 32/1

| Kusal Perera | 48 | 35 | 4 | 2 | 137.14 |

15.1 OUT! The first ball of his new spell and Jacob Duffy strikes immediately. This one is bowled from wide outside of the crease, angled in. A yorker directed right on middle stump. Kusal Perera makes room and tries to slog it over the long off fence but is beaten as the ball sneaks underneath the bat and thuds onto the middle stump. Perera goes for 48 (35). Sri Lanka are now 127/4, needing 60 runs in 29 balls. 127/4

11.4 OUT! TAKEN! Kamindu Mendis tries the reverse but holes out! A tighter line, on middle and leg, on a nagging length, Kamindu Mendis shapes up for the reverse and fails to get the placement right. Hits it a bit too square towards deep point where the fielder had just moved a few steps to his right before this ball. Mark Chapman settles under it and takes a safe catch. 97/3

16.4 OUT! CAUGHT AT DEEP SQUARE LEG! Santner gets the better of his counterpart! Mitchell Santner gives the air to the full ball, around middle, from over the wicket, turning in. Charith Asalanka goes on his knee to slog it away but doesn't make a good connection. The ball goes straight to Mark Chapman who takes it with both hands at deep square leg comfortably. Sri Lanka are 135/5, needing 52 runs in 20 balls 135/5

18.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Another one falls. Bowled full and way wide outside off, almost on the tramline. Avishka Fernando makes room and slices this one uppishly towards Tim Robinson, stationed at deep backward point boundary who just moves a couple of steps towards the right to complete that catch. The last recognised batter for Sri Lanka, Avishka Fernando departs. 141/8

| Wanindu Hasaranga | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 50 |

17.1 OUT! BOWLED! Dragged on! Jacob Duffy gets a wicket on the first ball again. This one is bowled back of a length, into the wicket, an off-cutter as it comes off the pitch. Wanindu Hasaranga opens up, looks to make room and tries to cut it towards backward point, but instead chops it back onto the base of the middle stump. Sri Lanka continue to fall away in the chase. 136/6

| Maheesh Theekshana | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |

17.3 OUT! CAUGHT IN THE DEEP! Another one in the over for Jacob Duffy. Opts to bowl an off-cutter again, into the pitch, much fuller.

| Binura Fernando | 3 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 60 |
|
19.1 OUT! CAUGHT! There goes the final wicket. This one is bowled full and outside off, much slower through the air, from the back of the hand. Binura Fernando looks to loft it over cover, off the front foot but goes through his shot early. It takes the outer half of the bat and loops up towards short third man where Jacob Duffy moves smartly towards his right to complete that catch in the end. Sri Lanka are all out for 141. New Zealand win by 45 runs to seal the series. 141/10

18.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mitchell Hay takes a good catch there! Back-to-back wickets for Henry and he will be on a hat-trick on the next ball! Good length, just outside off, from over the stumps, shaping away, Matheesha Pathirana goes to defend it with the full face of the bat. He only manages to get an outside edge that goes behind where the keeper Mitchell Hay dives low to his right to take the catch. Sri Lanka are nine down. 141/9
