    To quickly extinguished Black Caps hopes in Galle..


    Hopes of a famous New Zealand win in the first test have been rapidly ended on the fifth and final morning - on Sky Sport.

    Sri Lanka have bowled the visitors out for 211 - wrapping up a 63-run victory.

    The Black Caps chances were all-but over when Rachin Ravindra was dismissed for 92 in just the second over of play.

    Last man Will O'Rourke was cleaned up a further two overs later - handing the hosts a 1-nil series lead.
