Georgia Plimmer made her first international century to lift the home side to 280 for six batting first.

In reply, Sri Lanka lost early wickets and despite some handy middle-order partnerships were always behind the eight-ball given the start.

They were bowled out on the final ball of their innings for 182.

The T20 series starts on Friday in Christchurch.
