New zealand vs Sri lanka in NZ : 9th Mar --April 8th, 2023

[devla]

If SL win 2-0 in NZ, they deserve to play in the final. Might be in the best interest for India to not make it and be done with RD as coach.

This Henrcy Nichols is a massive freeloader. Last one year 7 tests averaging 15. Another one is Michael bracewell.

Nice sunny Bright Morning.

 

Nz 182/5*

Mitchell 48*

Bracewell 21*

 

Nz still trail by 173 runs

What is the equation? SL need to win 2-0 to qualify for WTC finals?

Yes.

 

If they win 2-0 and we either lose or draw this match, I think SL go to finals. If we win I guess we go thru but am not sure.

Yes.

 

If they win 2-0 I think SL go to finals even if we win this test and series 3-1

Okay thanks.

Mitchell 71 not out

 

Handy batting by Southee & Bracewell. SL picked up couple of wkts before Lunch but SL skipper not gave enough overs to prabhat jayasurya.

Lanka 

 

Although they have bad over rate and they might lose points. Don't know if it will cost them.

[Nidhibic]

Rf on Lanka's prospect in nz

===

 

Mitchell (102*) & Henry (20*) grind SL bowling 54* added by 8th wicket

 

291/7*

64 behind.

 

Mitchell's 5th 100 will be remember for long time in nz.

[Laaloo]

Ugh Mitchell gone

 

Lanka can still get a 50 + runs lead

It is critical to note that Sri Lanka must sweep the Kiwis in the series. Sri Lanka will not be able to secure second place in the World Test Championship points table with a 1-0 victory or a 1-1 tie.

So 99% we have chance if we Draw Ahmedabad test.

 

Note: with each Defeat in WTC team loose PCT % which effects team's ranking in WTC table.
