And that brings to an end a fantastic counter-attacking essay from New Zealand! They were in all kinds of trouble at 25 for 3 after the powerplay, but then a Glenn Phillips inspired counter saw them push the pressure back on the Lankans, and eventually put forward what is a pretty competitive total all things considered. Phillips of course was dropped early on in his innings, and the Sri Lankans were punished to the max for that indiscretion. This though is still a gettable total, and one that the Lankans might have taken at the start of the day. Shashank will be with you in a bit for the start of the chase.

Kumara to Southee, FOUR, Yes he can! Slower full toss outside off, and Southee drags this between long on and deep midwicket!

Southee has one ball to face, can he finish the innings in style?

Kumara to Sodhi, 1 run, OUT, Pace off on off, pulled cleanly to deep midwicket. They come back for a second, but the throw to to the striker's end is a good one, which means Sodhi is well short of his ground.

ShahSafeer: "One of the best innovations of how to run quickly and legally! Meanwhile this has been one of the best knocks at this tournament's history! "

Kumara to Phillips, OUT, And finally they hold on to a chance off Phillips! An all-time great T20I World Cup innings comes to an end, as Phillips looks to slash this offside but only manages to chip it high towards long off running in.
