    Will O'Rourke has been New Zealand's early hero in the opening test against Sri Lanka in Galle

    Will O'Rourke has been New Zealand's early hero in the opening test against Sri Lanka in Galle


    The hosts had started positively after winning the toss and batting...but O'Rourke has snared both openers...the free-scoring Nissanka with an absolute peach of a yorker, as heard on Sky Sport.



    Sri Lanka has consolidated against some miserly spin bowling...reaching 64 for two after 20 overs.

    The Black Caps have picked four spinners - specialists Ajaz Patel and Mitchell Santner backed up by all-rounders Rachin Ravindra and Glenn Phillips.
