The Black Caps are seeing the potential upside of a unique element to their opening cricket test against Sri Lanka starting in Galle this afternoon

18 September 2024

All-rounder Mitch Santner says a reset may be welcome.

The first ball is at 4.30 - New Zealand look set to have four spin options in their XI with Santner, Ajaz Patel, Rachin Ravindra and Glenn Phillips.
