Black Caps upsets the Lankans


Black caps(New Zealand) made their statement on friday with the conclusion of the T20 series by clean sweeping the series 2-0. Daniel Vettori was a pleased man at the end of the day when his team posted a strong total of 170 and struck them hard with ball right from the beginning. In fact it was clinical performance that one might think that the hosts were not just beaten, but defeated with all departments of the game.

And there's more to enjoy about in the New Zealand camp because not only Brendon McCullum fired up, but one of the most renowned fast bowler Shane Bond made sure his presence was felt on Friday after taking 3 wickets in 4 overs which is quite a brilliant performance for T20(a short format game of cricket).

With the Tri-Series in short duration upnext, the hosts(Sri-Lankans) must have to reconsider their strategies in order to live upto the expectations of the home crowd.
