New Zealand keep dominance Sri Lanka and once again they proved their legacy over their opponent in the 2nd ODI match where New Zealand won by 113 runs and thus they won the ODI series cause they already have a victory in first ODI. In both matches, Sri Lanka did a very poor performance in batting and bowling both. Match reduced to 37 overs due to rain and within those overs, NZ Scored 255-9 runs where Mark Chapman(62) and opener Rachin Ravindra(79) did a decent amount of runs with having a beautiful half century. Maheesh Theekshana took 4 wickets behalf of SA. But while it comes to SA batting, they did poor startup where they lost four wickets at 22-4 runs only. Kamindu Mendis(64) able to scored decent amount of runs, with his all effort he able to made half century but rest of players lost wickets with lower runs. It isn't possible for one player like Kamindu Mendis to make the team win until all players give their best effort and perform good. And once again SL lost the match.

Sri Lanka have been unable to maintain their dominance against New Zealand, as they lost the first match badly and they also lost the second match badly. Sri Lanka's ODI series against New Zealand has not been good, except for the second ODI, where they lost by a huge margin of 113 runs. There is no improvement in the batting and bowling of Sri Lanka, due to which they are not able to play a thrilling match with their opponent. The bowling performance and batting performance of New Zealand was very good, but nothing was right from Sri Lanka. Since Sri Lanka lost both the two ODI matches, they lost the series, as the next match is very important for them, so Sri Lanka must improve their game to win the third match. If Sri Lanka wants to maintain their dominance, then the third match against New Zealand must be the one, otherwise they will be whitewashed in the ODI series.

Sri Lanka are losing every match against New Zealand so how will they dominate against New Zealand. Sri Lanka only won two warm-up matches and one T20 match against New Zealand, then they did not win another match against New Zealand. When Sri Lanka lost the first T20 match and the second match against New Zealand earlier we thought that maybe they will lose the T20 series but they won the third T20 match. Similarly we are seeing their performance in ODI series i.e. they lost in ODI series first ODI and second ODI match maybe they will be able to win against New Zealand in third ODI match.
