Complete Sri Lanka won by 4 wkts

Player of Match: Charith Asalanka

Finally, the high-flying New Zealand have tasted a loss. Sri Lanka, however, continue their recent-fine record at home. Both teams have got less then 24 hours to recover though. The second and final T20I will be played at the same venue, same time. Can the visitors turn things around to level the series? Sri Lanka to seal it 2-0? Do remember to catch us tomorrow for all the entertainemt. Cheers!!
Charith Asalanka | Player of the Match, Sri Lanka skipper: The plan was to bat till the end. I thought Wanindu and Wellalage batted well in the end. We could have bowled them out to less than 15-20 than what they did, but it was a good job from our bowlers. As a team, all the guys play spin very well and they always take the right option. As a captain, happy with the form and want to continue doing well for my team.
Mitchell Santner | New Zealand skipper: We did pretty well to get to 130, credit to the way Sri Lankan spinners bowled. We were thinking maybe 150-160 at the start. Always a privilege to captain your country, it is an exciting young group and we got a lot of ODIS and T20Is coming up and we will take our learnings tonight and look to enjoy every moment.
Kusal Perera - We all knew that the wicket was doing something for the spinners. 135 wasn't a par score, but we needed to do well as a batting group. When the ball was new, it was gripping for the spinners, we had to take some risks to gain momentum, after the powerplay, we concentrated on ones and twos. My go to shot is the sweep, that's what I do to put pressure on the bowlers. Thanks for the news (on being told that he went past Dilshan's numbers to become Sri Lanka's highest run-scorer in T20Is), glad to break it. I've worked hard on my game and am looking forward to contributing more for the team.
