Watch cricket highlights: New Zealand vs Sri Lanka at the 2009 Champions Trophy, played on September 27, 2009.
Scoreline: NZ 315/7 Jesse Ryder 74 (58), Martin Guptill 66, Vettori 48
Sri Lanka 277 all out: Mahela Jayawardene 77, Kulasekara 57 no, Dilshan 41
Finally, New Zealand stop frustrating their fans. Oh wait. Ryder’s now out. It happened in the T20 World Cup – just when they were looking good half the team fell out injured or sick. But I suppose, no one could be as frustrated as Ryder himself, evident from his expletive-ridden rejection of the pretty physios endearments. Guptill looked like he wanted to stick around for a change before putting on a show of his phenomenal clean-striking abilities.
Mahela looked set to repeat his 2007 World Cup Semis knock vs NZ where he’d bent them over in the closing overs – unfortunately for Lanka, wasn’t to be. Brilliant knock however from a modern great.
