New Zealand vs Sri Lanka, 46th Match, Super 8 Group 2 (Y2 v Y4), ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Rachin Ravindra to Kusal Mendis, out Stumped!! Beautiful piece of bowling. Rachin Ravindra bowls it slower and wider, extra turn and bounce on that one, Kusal Mendis jumps out to slash, the bounce takes it over the bat and Tim Seifert did so well, he collected it to his right and then had a fair way to go the stumps. Mendis nearly got back but his right leg was in the air when the stumps were lit. It is sent upstairs and the third ump makes the call. Maybe Ravindra saw Mendis charging and bowled it wider. On one leg and Mendis had no chance. Kusal Mendis st Tim Seifert b Rachin Ravindra 11(22) [4s-1]
