Preview :

New Zealand (NZ) will be facing Sri Lanka (SL) in the third ODI match at the Seddon Park, Hamilton on Friday, March 31. Unseasonal rain washed out the second ODI between New Zealand and Sri Lanka without the toss in Christchurch. It continued to rain as the day progressed and at Hagley Oval. This possibility seemed to be getting less and less. The cut-off time for 20-over play, the minimum allowed for the rain-curtailed ODI, was set at 7.02 pm local time, but as rain continued, the umpires called off play after a final inspection at 4.25 pm. has been closed.

As a result, the teams split the points. Also further denting Sri Lanka's hopes of automatic World Cup qualification. The top eight teams from the Super League table will get direct berths in the World Cup but Sri Lanka are currently ninth on 82 points with just one more match in hand.

However, New Zealand are set to finish as Super League table toppers despite rain in Christchurch. Even if they lose to Sri Lanka in the third ODI in Hamilton. He currently has 165 points. Also, the washout means they cannot lose the ongoing series against Sri Lanka after they thrashed them by 198 runs in the first ODI in Auckland on Saturday.


The average first innings scored here is 240 runs.
