Latest Highlights
Asitha Fernando to Kane Williamson, THAT'S IT! New Zealand win by 2 wickets! Unreal scenes at the Hagley Oval. Asitha Fernando goes short again and bowls it at the batter, Kane Williamson shuffles across to pull this one on the leg side but misses again. Niroshan Dickwella behind the wicket pouches it safely and fires a throw at the striker's end as the batters look to sneak in a bye. He does not hit and his throw is collected by Asitha Fernando in the middle of the pitch. Fernando picks the ball, turns around and hits at the non-strikers' end. Sri Lanka think they have got their man but the replays show that the dive by Kane Williamson helped him make his ground by the barest of margins. Sri Lanka are dejected but you gotta stand up and applaud Kane Williamson for his outstanding knock.
Asitha Fernando to Kane Williamson, Banged in short and around off, Kane Williamson goes for the pull but does not get any bat on it. He has a look a the square leg umpire who deems the ball to be below the batter's head. New Zealand need 1 off the last ball.
Asitha Fernando to Kane Williamson, FOUR! BEAUTIFUL SHOT! The scores are level now. Asitha Fernando bowls it full and outside off, Kane Williamson picks the length early and leans into the drive. Creams the drive between deep backward point and deep cover for a boundary.
