“I think the spinners did really well through the middle there to tie them up,” Milne said. “We lost wickets at regular intervals and 141 was never enough on this wicket,” captain Dasun Shanaka said. But after Milne removed Perera, de Silva fell to the spinner Rachin Ravindra and Sri Lanka’s innings lost some of its momentum. New Zealand used the slower ball to good effect and a succession of batters fell to catches in the deep. The pair put on 62 for the third wicket. He also dimissed opener Pathum Nissanka (0) and wrapped up the innings by clean bowling Pramod Madushan and Dilshan Madushanka.
