When and Where:

Venue- Sophia Gardens, Cardiff

Timings- Saturday, 1 June, 3:00 pm

After losing their first warm-up against Windies, New Zealand must be looking forward to get all their combinations right before taking on Sri Lanka. New Zealand come into this tournament backing on a good form. The runners-up of 2015 edition of World Cup would this time aim their maiden title.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, are coming into this tournament unfancied. They almost missed an automatic qualification and they have lost 41 of 55 ODIs they have played since 2017. The fact that skipper Dimuth Karunaratne has played only ODI since the previous World Cup might add to the woes of his team.

Betting Odds NZ vs SL

Betfair: New Zealand 2/9, Sri Lanka 10/3

Skybet: New Zealand 1/4, Sri Lanka 3

Ladbrokes: New Zealand 1/4, Sri Lanka 3
