The Day 1 of the second Test between New Zealand and Sri Lanka concluded early as bad light forced the umpires to call stumps. At the end of the day’s play, the Kiwis sat at 155/2 in 48 overs.
Devon Conway (78) and Kane Williamson (26 not-out), led the scoring charts for the hosts. Sri Lanka and New Zealand regrouped again after seeing the first Test between them ending in a thrilling win for the hosts.
Kane Williamson hit the winning runs for the Kiwis in the match on the last delivery of the match, putting his side 1-0 ahead while also knocking the Lankans out of the World Test Championship race. Sri Lanka, who had plenty of positives to take from the first Test, start the second and final match of the series hoping to put in a similar show, but end up on the winning side this time.
