Matt Henry to Charith Asalanka, out Caught by Daryl Mitchell!! Henry on a roll. Struck with his first ball in the first over, now strikes with his first ball in the second over. Asalanka walks back. Sri Lanka in trouble.

Matt Henry to Charith Asalanka, no run, wicket-maiden! "That is New Zealand's first maiden of the tournament, couldn't have come at a better time," says Simon Doull on air. Attacks the stumps, Asalanka leans forward and turns it gently to mid-wicket

Matt Henry to Charith Asalanka, no run, very full delivery outside off, Asalanka reaches out and jams it to the off-side

Matt Henry to Pathum Nissanka, out Bowled!! What a start! Henry roars. The crowd are stunned. Nissanka, the star of the show against Australia, is gone for a first ball duck. This is a classic Henry delivery. Good length wobble seam delivery, lands on the seam and nips in, Nissanka is rooted to the crease and plays all over it, the ball beats the inside edge and hits the top of middle-stump. Henry is pumped and so are the rest of the Kiwi players. Nissanka's feet were pointing towards cover-point and he perhaps wasn't expecting the nip-backer first up. Pathum Nissanka b Matt Henry 0(1)
