    Rachin Ravindra is poised for a spot in New Zealand test cricket history at Galle

    Rachin Ravindra is poised for a spot in New Zealand test cricket history at Galle


    The visitors chances of a win over Sri Lanka remain alive, heading into the final day.

    They are 207 for eight, chasing 275 for victory - Ravindra's 91 not out at the crease with Ajaz Patel.

    No New Zealander has scored a test century in five visits to the venue, but Patel's backing his teammate.



    Australia have beaten the White Ferns by 29 runs in Mackay to secure their best-of-three T20 series with a match to play.
