NZ 17-0 (3 ovs) vs SL

Kulasekara starts his second over with a wide down the leg side and Nicol gets a leg bye from the next ball.

Guptill then lofts him down the ground as it bounces once before hitting the ropes for New Zealand's first boundary. He tries the chip shot again as Thisara Perera at mid-on makes a good effort leaping high but fails to hold on to give away two runs.

Sri Lanka bring the thirdman fielder inside the circle, sending the mid-on fielder back to long-on. Guptill shows great presence of mind to steer the next ball past the short thirdman fielder for another boundary before a single to long-on to end the over.

13 runs from that over as NZ reach 17 for no loss after three overs.
