Caught some of Guptill's clean hitting, he looked on course to doing another 90 off 30 balls before Williamson came into the crease and selfishly hogged the strike for two overs ;)

Kiwis to bat. Venue seems to be a bit of an unknown quantity.

New Zealand have done well to post 294 on what looks like a wicket that will slower as the game progresses, not ideal for Sri Lanka when batting in the final 10 overs.

Looks a good score for the KIWIS. Well done Guppy, again.

In addition to Guptill's century, there were 61s from Taylor and Williamson as well....

Angelo's 95 was in vain, with only some support from Chandimal, who hit a round 50. Once again, SL's batting is carrying too many passengers....

Henry gets a five-fer....

Despite some positive play from Sri Lanka, they've been soundly beaten by a depleted New Zealand side in this series.

Must be concerning for Sri Lanka that their most senior players (Matthews, Dilshan, Chandimal) are the ones who are playing least well st the moment.

Sri Lanka lose both T20 matches...not a great tour for them.

I'm not a regular knocker of T20 games but that game last night was literally not cricket.

Boundaries brought in, bowlers next to pointless, big hitters throughout....not my idea of entertainment.
