    A nervy start, but a strong finish for the victorious Black Caps in their T20 cricket series opener against Sri Lanka in Mount Maunganui


    Batting first - New Zealand lost five wickets inside 10 overs, before a 105-run stand between Daryl Mitchell and Michael Bracewell propelled them to 173.

    Sri Lanka came up eight runs short after another Black Caps fightback with the ball.
