Mitchell and Michael Bracewell starting to fire some shots. Surprised Beast hasn’t played more for NZ, if he gets going he’s one of the most explosive t20 players to watch with the bat.
I think he's wasted a bit at seven. I understand the rationale of having him as a hitter from ball one as a finisher. But, there is no way he should bat below Mitch Hay amongst others
I wouldn’t mind seeing Bracewell open instead of Ravindra. He was very good there a few years back for Wellington when they won the Super Smash. Ravindra doesn’t suit opening IMO.

All a bit easy for Sri Lanka. Missed the start of our innings - were conditions much tougher?
I'm a bit sceptical when I see a scorecard like our innings - the lower order cashing in can often be a sign that the top order bungled things, rather than a miraculous recovery than saves the game.

Bit of a limp wristed performance. Visiting team, and we can't even take a bloody wicket. Weird Santner hasn't used Phillips
-
Turns out we can take some wickets.
-
I hope Foulkes isn't bowling the last over
-
Poos. He is.
-
Why bowl such an expensive bowler in the last?
-
He's started well, wicket in the first ball. 5 balls left, 14 needed.
-
First ball success for NZ with the attempted ramp. .I wonder when teams will start placing fielders to combat the ramp?
-
Good stuff again Foulkes. A run out.
-
Another wicket. Run out this time. Foulkes is coming to the party.
-
They need two sixes.
-
And that's it Foulkes. We are gonna win. Never in doubt.
-
All over now unless he bowls a no ball.

Why do they insist on trying to bounce these guys out? Bowl some yorkers!
To be fair. Duffy's three wicket over featuring short and back of a length deliveries turned the match
