...Presentation...
It was looking like a straight forward win for Sri Lanka with the total on the board but their top order was cleaned up by the hat trick hero Lockie Ferguson. Mitchell Santner then used spinners mostly to create some pressure and they did exceedingly well. Lockie Ferguson though went off due to injury and Mitchell Santner had to rely on other bowlers. Glenn Phillips turned up as he did against India in the recently concluded Test match with the ball and helped his team defend a low total. This is the lowest total successfully defended by New Zealand in T20Is
A low scoring thriller! New Zealand have levelled the series. Who saw this coming? The other day, another low score but Sri Lanka chased it down however, New Zealand pulled off a really good win here. The bowlers have done the job. Glenn Phillips is the hero for them as his three wickets including the big one of Nissanka in the last over helps New Zealand avoid a defeat. It was Nissanka vs New Zealand all the way. The others struggled on a tricky pitch. Nissanka kept the hopes alive till the last over, it felt like he will take his team home but not to be.
