The recalled Doug Bracewell and debutant Scott Kuggeleijn starred with bat and ball for New Zealand to beat Sri Lanka by 35 runs in the one-off T20 match in Auckland on Friday. It ended a dismal tour for the Sri Lankans with the drawn first Test followed by a succession of losses in the second Test, three ODIs and the Twenty20. New Zealand, sent in to bat, recovered from 55/5 to finish on 179/7. Sri Lanka had the game in control at 118/4 after 12 overs, but lost last six wickets for only 26 more runs. — AFP
