New Zealand vs Sri Lanka Match Prediction: Who Will Win Today’s Match between NZ vs SL 1st ODI?
New Zealand vs Sri Lanka 1st ODI Match Preview:
On Saturday, March 25, the opening match of the three-match ODI series between New Zealand and Sri Lanka is set. Auckland’s Eden Park will serve as the event’s venue.
In Tim Southee and Kane Williamson’s absence, Tom Latham will lead the Black Caps. The Kiwis have a roster that is still somewhat young. With captain Latham and Henry Nicholls in the middle order, Will Young and Finn Allen should bat first. Sri Lanka, on the other side, will enter the game having dropped the Test series 1-0. Their batting has a good deal of depth because players like Wanindu Hasaranga can also contribute important runs to the total. Maheesh Theekshana and Hasaranga are set to compete for the spin-bowling title together.
