Series: Sri Lanka tour New Zealand, 2023
New Zealand vs Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI 28th march morning six thirty am
Venue: Hagley Oval, Christchurch
The visitors are all set to face the Kiwis in the 2nd ODI as they look to make a comeback and stay alive in the series. After a 2-0 whitewash in the Tests, Sri Lanka’s form slipped even further as they were all
out for just 76 runs in the 1st ODI.
The key bowlers in the side were impressive in their respective spells to restrict the hosts to a par total. A 275-run target isn’t much in Auckland where teams have managed to chase down even bigger totals.
Tom Latham who is leading the hosts in the ODI series scored a brilliant hundred the last time he played in Christchurch. New Zealand have quite a few newcomers in their side.
Of those, Henry Shipley made his mark with a fifer in the 4th ODI of his career. Boult and Southee aren’t part of this NZ squad. New Zealand have some promising batters in the side and we expect
them to deliver at the Hagley Oval, Christchurch in the 2nd ODI.
