Foulkes 以 K Fernando
One run. Zak Foulkes to Binura Fernando. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to mid off for 1 run, fielded by Henry. That's it! Much like their batting, New Zealand made a strong comeback with the ball as well in this match after Sri Lanka's opening partnership of 121. Kusal Mendis and Pathum Nissanka gave Sri Lanka a solid start, but Jacob Duffy's incredible triple-wicket over turned the tide in New Zealand's favour. From that point on, the hosts took control of the game, and they now lead the series 1-0. Despite a valiant 90 from Pathum Nissanka, Sri Lanka fell short. Jacob Duffy is the Player of the Match for his outstanding bowling performance.
