NZ vs SL 1st T20I: Match Preview:
Trending
Recently, Sri Lanka faced off against Team India in a 3-match T20I series. Even though Lankans lost the series, they put up a fighting performance and lacked a bit of luck. The revamped Lankan team would look to turn their fortune around against the Kiwis. Notably, New Zealand also played their last T20I series against India where they were humiliated by the Indians. However, the home team would be full of confidence given their 2-0 win in the ODI series against Sri Lanka.
The first T20I is set to be played in Eden Park, where the Kiwis would look to continue their winning momentum from the ODI series and start the T20I series with a win. Tom Latham will be leading the host team and both sides would look to get back to winning ways in the T20 format after losing the series against India. Dasun Shanaka-led Lankan team would also look to improve on their performance from the ODI series.
