This is the opening game of the three-match T20I series. New Zealand, confident at home, will look to capitalize on their conditions against a Sri Lankan side that historically struggles on foreign soil. With a powerful pace bowling unit, New Zealand holds the advantage against Sri Lanka, which lacks consistent performers in challenging conditions.
