BENGALURU : New Zealand won the toss and elected to bowl first against Sri Lanka in a crucial World Cup game at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Thursday, with both teams hoping the rain stays away.
Sri Lanka is set to clash against New Zealand in their final match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 group phase on November 9. The match will be played at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. Sri Lanka's exit from the tournament was confirmed on Monday after a defeat to Bangladesh by three wickets. It was their sixth defeat in eight matches. The Kusal Mendis-led side's only victories came against Netherlands and England.
New Zealand on Tuesday selected five spin bowlers to tackle the turning wickets expected in Bangladesh for the two-Test cricket series later this month following the 50-overs World Cup. Left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner returns to the Black Caps' Test squad for the first time since 2021 to join Ajaz Patel and Ish Sodhi as the main spin bowlers. New Zealand's options with the turning ball are boosted by all-rounders Rachin Ravindra, who has hit three centuries at the ODI World Cup, and Glenn Phillips.
New Zealand have recalled Mitchell Santner, Kyle Jamieson and Rachin Ravindra for this month's two-test series in Bangladesh that kicks off the third cycle of the World Test Championship.
New Zealand: Devon Conway, Rachin Ravindra, Kane Williamson (capt), Daryl Mitchell, Tom Latham (wkt), Mark Chapman, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, Trent Boult
