That's all we have from this match. The second T20I is on 10th January, 2016 at Auckland. Do join us at 0730 IST for all the action. Until then, it's a goodbye. Cheers!
Danushka Gunathilaka and Milinda Siriwardana played useful knocks but were not able to win the match for their side. It got close towards the end but the New Zealand bowlers held their nerves and bowled some tidy lines to defend the target. Trent Boult was the stand out performer with the ball, picking up a 3-wicket haul and he's adjudged the Man of the Match.
Great fight shown by the Sri Lankan lower middle order but it was New Zealand who managed to edge them out by 3 runs! The visiting team seems to be a late starter. With the ball they were late to wake up and went for aplenty up front before pulling things back a bit at the death. In their chase too, their top order was blown away in a flash but the lower middle order showed good resistance and took the run chase close.
