Preview

New Zealand (NZ) will take on Sri Lanka (SL) in the second T20I of the Sri Lanka tour of New Zealand. This match will be played at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. New Zealand made a sensational comeback in the opening match to win by eight runs. Chasing a target of 173, Sri Lanka were 121 for 0 at one stage but a dramatic collapse followed once the opening partnership broke. New Zealand scrapped out a win out of nowhere to take a 1-0 lead in the series. This should be another closely fought game between these two sides.
