Today we have first T20I between Sri Lanka vs New Zealand as I am expecting good and entertaining cricket both good sides which are having good development in last few months, but we have early setbacks for the Kiwis as they lost three wickets with just 34 runs on board Sri Lanka bowlers doing impressive job in power play and having early control of the game as well.
After win of toss New Zealand choose to bat first at the Dambulla, but we have good bowling from Dunith Wellalage and Nuwan Thushara who give early breakthrough to their team now Glenn Phillips and Michael Bracewell on crease for having some recovery, but things are not favourable for them to have decent target on board for having good end of this game.
Today is the match between Sri Lanka and New Zealand. Recently some days before they both faced each other in the test matches and the New Zealand team had a very bad defeat against Sri Lanka in all of those test matches. They were whitewashed so badly but now they both are back to play in the T20 format at Dambulla. I am hoping for good for the Sri Lanka team who have recently gained a lot of success in the recent days.
Today also Sri Lanka bowlers are in full control. Every bowler took wickets with Nuwan Thushara and Matheesha Pathirana are the most successful bowlers with two wickets each. New Zealand's batting failed again, they were 90 runs with 7 wickets down. They need to push the score to at least 130 in the remaining 6 overs to make a match out of it.
