NZ vs SL Live Cricket Score

4.3 OUT! SOFT DISMISSAL! Pitched-up around middle and off, Pathum Nissanka gets caught in two minds on whether to flick this towards leg and push this straight past the bowler. Ends up doing neither. The ball miscues it off the cue end and scoops straight to the Kiwi skipper at mid off for a simple catch. 15/1

26.4 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Another one departs and this time it is Avishka Fernando who throws away his wicket. On a length around off, Avishka Fernando goes through with the drive, hits it uppish and straight to Glenn Phillips at point for a simple catch. 110/6

6 OUT! CHOPPED ONE! New Zealand are all over the visitors. Back of a length around off, Kusal Mendis looks to block this off his back foot but the ball hits him high on the bat and chops back onto the stumps, disturbing the timber. Kusal Mendis departs for 2. 18/2

9 OUT! ASTONISHING FROM Mitchell Santner! A work of art from the Kiwi skipper and Kamindu Mendis has to walk back. Good length on off, Kamindu Mendis defends it but a bit too firm and to the strong hand of Mitchell Santner at cover. Kamindu Mendis calls for one straightaway and runs but Mitchell Santner was better than Mendis as he runs in picks it up and hits the bull's eyes in one motion to dismiss the southpaw. Excellent work from the Kiwi skipper. 23/3

9.5 OUT! The Kiwis have gone upstairs as Nathan Smith has heard something off the bat and convinced Mitchell Santner to review it. Back of a length, shaping away from the left-hander. Charith Asalanka looks to block this one but gets late. The ball fizzes past the batter and goes straight into the gloves of the keeper. Not a confident appeal from the Kiwis and the umpire is unmoved. Santner goes upstairs and the UltraEdge shows a clear spike as the ball is next to the bat. Charith Asalanka can not believe it but he has to walk back. 23/4

25.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Short of a length around leg, Janith Liyanage rocks back and looks to pull this one out of the park but hits it off the sticker and the ball only lobs over Michael Bracewell at mid-wicket. Michael Bracewell takes a good catch but falls badly with his head hitting the surface hard. 110/5

37.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! On a length, angling away from the batter, Chamindu Wickramasinghe clears his front leg and goes for a wild slog. The ball gets sliced off the outer half off the bat and hands behind Will Young at cover. Young tracks back and takes it nice and easy. 158/7

39.3 OUT! Henry gets another one. On a length around off, Wanindu Hasaranga moves away from his stumps and looks to loft this over the infield on off. Wanindu Hasaranga lobs this straight at Mitchell Santner for a regulation catch. 175/8

41.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Short-pitched, around off, Eshan Malinga clears his front leg and looks to hit this over cover but gets it off the outer of his bat and hands high over Mitchell Santner at cover for a regulation catch. 176/9

43.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Short-pitched, around middle and leg, Asitha Fernando backs away but looks to cut this behind the stumps at the end. Gets a bit of glove onto it and straight into the gloves of Mitchell Hay behind the stumps. Sri Lanka have been restricted to 178. 178/10

12.3 OUT! TAKEN! Chamindu Wickramasinghe makes in impact in his first over and Sri Lanka finally have a breakthrough. Full, on middle and leg, Rachin Ravindra looks to flick it but mistimes it at deep square leg where Wanindu Hasaranga moves to his left and takes the catch. 93/1
