New Zealand Women vs Sri Lanka Women Match Highlights
Earlier, Sri Lanka batted first after winning the toss. Captain Chamari Athapaththu led from the front with a fluent 53, while opening partner Vishmi Gunaratne added 42 off 83 balls. The duo put on a 101-run opening stand before Devine broke the partnership by dismissing Athapaththu in the 24th over. Gunaratne soon followed.
The middle order tried to rebuild through Harshitha Samarawickrama (26) and Hasini Perera (44), adding 58 runs for the fourth wicket. Bree Illing and Sophie Devine triggered a brief collapse, leaving Sri Lanka at 198 for five.
Nilakshika de Silva then counterattacked with a 28-ball unbeaten 55, the fastest fifty of the tournament, helping Sri Lanka reach 258 for six. She struck seven boundaries and a six, scoring 80 runs in the final 10 overs.
For New Zealand, skipper Sophie Devine took 3 for 54 in nine overs. Bree Illing (2 for 39) and Rosemary Mair (1 for 29) supported well, but fielding lapses and a lack of early breakthroughs allowed Sri Lanka to post a strong total.
Scorecard: Sri Lanka 258/6 in 50 overs – Chamari Athapaththu 53, Vishmi Gunaratne 42, Hansini Perera 44, Nilakshi de Silva 55 not out; Sophie Devine 3/54.
