Sri Lanka vs New Zealand Highlights: SL crash out of the World Cup, NZ annihilate co-hosts by 61 runs

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: That will be that. Glenn Phillips picks up a wicket for himself for good measure, and seals what ended up being a one-sided contest. Sri Lanka had their noses ahead early in the match, but for the last 25 overs of this game, it was all Blackcaps.

A 61-run win, Sri Lanka can no longer qualify for the semifinals, and the Kiwis are now in pole position to beat Pakistan to the knockout stage. It turns up New Zealand in Colombo.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Winding down to a close without much happening now. Sri Lanka's batting has betrayed them heading deep into this tournament.

Wellalage does earn a cheer as he knocks a single to take the score to 100.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Another one bites the dust. Kamindu the only batter who could stick around, but not for too long himself. Pulls it right to hand, now 77/7.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: It's another for Rachin Ravindra! Hemantha goes for the big shot, but doesn't get enough power on it. Easy catch at long on.

67/6 after 13 overs now.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Rachin Ravindra more than just a golden arm, he's looking like Rangana Herath out here. Looped up again, plenty of purchase, draws a big top edge on the cut and picks up the fifth for the evening.

Halfway through.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Copy paste! Exactly the same, looped outside the off-stump, Rathnayake tries to march down but is beaten by the loop and width, and Seifert does well to get across and back to the stumps quickly.

Sri Lanka falling apart. 36/4 after 9 overs.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Third wicket down and this chase isn't going anywhere. Looped up outside off, drags Mendis forward, and after he misses it it's an easy stumping to complete.

27/3 now. Rate continues to climb, approaching 12 now.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: New Zealand dominate with the ball. Simply not letting anything away and keeping it incredibly tight. 20 runs off the powerplay, and two wickets. Sri Lanka need a big switch.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Another wicket for Matt Henry! He's on fire, and it's that sinking feeling for Sri Lanka all over again. Asalanka comes in but can't stick around for long. Now 6/2 – NZ off to the perfect start.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: DYNAMITE START TO THE CHASE FOR NEW ZEALAND! Matt Henry is a wicket-taking monster with the new ball and he does the trick first up. Pitches on a good length, no feet movement from Nissanka, and he is beaten by the seam into him. Rattles his stumps, and the Kiwis are ecstatic! All the momentum with them.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Excellent batting from Santner and McConchie to score 70 off the last four overs. It has given them something very very defendable on this pitch despite Sri Lanka dominating through the middle.

Chameera picks up a third wicket on the last ball, Santner out on 47(26), but the job has been done well. 168/7, and set up for an excellent chase.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: What a last few overs for the Kiwis! They have bounced back in some fashion at the death here. McConchie picks up four, then Santner hammers another full-toss for a big six. Madhushanka punished – also bowls three wides to make it an even longer over.

156/6 after 19. 170 in sight now.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Another big over for New Zealand! Beginning to swing hard and find velue. Santner likes his chances against Theekshana, goes 4, 6, 6 – the last of these a full toss that disappears into the Colombo night.

137/6 with two overs to play. Can they potentially get to 160-165?

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: McConchie gets a move on! The pace comes on and he's happy to take on Chameera rather than the spinners. Gets a couple of deliveries on his pads and that's good muscle to power it over the rope on the leg side. Good batting from him.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: SUPERB DELIVERY FROM DUNITH WELLALAGE! It's a perfect arm ball on a perfect length, draws Mitchell forward but beats him on the inside edge after not turning. Crashes through his bat-pad gap and makes a mess of the stumps.

Suddenly 86/4 and Sri Lanka are roaring!

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Maheesh Theekshana is on fire! Perfect spinner's dismissal. New man Chapman at the crease but doesn't get to the pitch of the ball. Pitches on middle and spins away, beats his outside edge, and he's been bowled!

5 down and a lot of pressure onto New Zealand now.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Another big moment! Ravindra seemed to have understood the pace of the surface and was timing it well, but his cut shot here is a little loose. Floats to backward point for a simple catch and it's 84/4.

Lots to do for the middle order now.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: It's all happening! Rachin Ravindra gets away despite mistiming a big shot right into the air, as Dasun Shanaka tries to get underneath it but can never settle and can't hold on.

But some reprieve – the next ball, Chameera gets a wicket anyway! Seam up and jags in off the surface, Phillips' feet are rooted to the crease. Crashes through his guard and rattles leg stump – great delivery, and it's now 75/3!

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: A few quiet overs ut enough for Ravindra to get set! Gets his matchup with Hemantha bowling, and Ravindra doesn't mind targeting the long boundary. Connects well and sends it for six over straight down the ground.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: After a fast Kiwi start, Sri Lanka's powerplay. 30/0 in the first 3 overs, 14/2 in the next 3. Overall, 44/2, but New Zealand looking to consolidate.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: GONE!!! The Premadasa is ecstatic. Seifert times that flick off his pads so well, looks like it's flying for six, but he has found the one man on the boundary on the leg side! Kamindu Mendis takes a great catch at the boundary.

Sri Lanka on top now. 34/2.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Maheesh Theekshana can. make up for it quickly! Brought on in the powerplay and draws a leading edge from Allen. Loops back to the bowlers, and this time he doesn't make a mistake. Gets across to make the catch.

30/1 now, Sri Lanka will be very happy with that wicket. Allen was looking dangerous.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: First chance Sri Lanka have generated! Thick outside edge by Seifert, and it flies to Theekshana's left at short third. He puts in the dive and it looks like he should hang on with it at a catchable height. Bonus life.

Salt in the wounds as Allen pumps a gorgeous straight drive back over the head of the bowler for four next ball.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Good start against the left-arm spin of Wellalage! Allen picks the gap through the offside twice on consecutive deliveries, and Seifert ends the over by hoicking a pull along the floor to vacant square leg.

23/0 after the first 2 overs.

SL vs NZ Super Eights Live Score: Couple of dot balls but Allen backs himself to catch up. Pitched up by left-arm seamer Madhushanka, and Allen can clear his front leg and swing away. Carries over the boundary.
