Match 27 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 will see New Zealand square off against Sri Lanka on Saturday, October 29. The Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney will host this exciting Group 1 fixture.
New Zealand thrashed Australia in their opening fixture of the T20 World Cup 2022. An all-round show helped them beat the Aussies comprehensively at the Sydney Cricket Ground. They traveled to Melbourne to face Afghanistan in their next clash at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Rain played a spoilsport as the game was abandoned without a ball being bowled. As a result, both New Zealand and Afghanistan shared a point each. The Kiwis will be disappointed to not get a chance to carry forward their winning momentum and will hope that rain stays away and they get to play the Lankan side on Saturday.
Sri Lanka, meanwhile, started their Super 12 campaign with a win. They beat Ireland comprehensively in their first Super 12 game but failed to repeat their performance as they were beaten convincingly by Australia in their next fixture.
After being asked to bat first, Pathum Nissanka (40) and Charish Asalanka (38*) contributed as Sri Lanka posted 157 on the board. The bowlers failed to step up as they managed to pick up just three wickets and were unsuccessful in defending the total. They will now have to be on their toes when they play the Kiwis in the upcoming clash.
