Nelson, January 08 at 3:30 AM IST
New Zealand have wrapped up the series against Sri Lanka and would come out for a 3-0 whitewash at Saxton Oval on Tuesday. The hosts have piled 300+ totals in the two games so far in the series and defended the scores successfully, with not much resistance from the tourists.
In the series dominated by the bat, Martin Guptill, Colin Munro, Ross Taylor and Jimmy Neesham have inflicted most of the damage with the bat for the hosts. Thisara Perera and Kusal Perera have also notched hundreds. As the two teams get ready for the final game of the series, this could well be another bat-dominated affair with batsmen in the groove.

Reactions from captains after 2nd ODI
Kane Williamson: Feels nice that we held our nerves and came out with a win. Thisara played outstandingly well and kept putting us under pressure.
Lasith Malinga: We got a partnership but then we lost wickets in the middle overs. We can’t change much overnight but mentally we need to do better.
