🏏ICC Men's T20I WC 2022: Super 12 - Group 1 - NZ vs SL - 29/10/22🏏 - Page 9

Ferguson to Rajapaksa, OUT

Toe-ends a lofted his straight to mid-off, the fielder didn't have to move an inch! Right intent, wrong execution. Lockie bowls this into the pitch at 146kph, gets some lift off the pitch to hit Bhanuka high on the bat, he's unable to generate any power on the shot as a result and Williamson takes the simplest of catches.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa c Williamson b Ferguson 34 (22b 3x4 2x6 ) SR: 154.54

NZ 167/7

SL

(11.4/20 ov, T:168) 64/7

Sri Lanka need 104 runs in 50 balls.

Sodhi to Hasaranga de Silva, OUT

And this might be the final nail in the Lankan coffin! A soft dismissal, as this is slapped straight to extra cover. Williamson takes it with ease.

Wanindu Hasaranga de Silva c Williamson b Sodhi 4 (6b 1x4 0x6 ) SR: 66.66

NZ 167/7

SL (12.3/20 ov, T:168) 65/8

Sri Lanka need 103 runs in 45 balls.

Top edged sweep, and Santner barely lays a glove on it! This will go down as a drop but Santner running back just cannot get under it in time.

Santner to Theekshana, OUT

Boult to Shanaka, OUT

And Shanaka's vigil is over! This was short and he goes for the pull, but he can't get enough on it as this is taken comfortably on the deep square leg boundary.

Dasun Shanaka c Mitchell b Boult 35 (32b 4x4 1x6 ) SR: 109.37
