2nd Test, Day 2: Kane Williamson,Henry Nicholls Slam Double Centuries As New Zealand Dominate Sri Lanka

By IANS News March 18, 2023 • 13:16 PM View: 685

Kane Williamson and Henry Nicholls slammed double centuries while sharing a mammoth partnership of 363 as New Zealand punished Sri Lanka's hapless bowlers to declare at 580/4 and dominate the play on day two of the second Test at the Basin Reserve, here on Saturday.

At stumps, Sri Lanka were 26/2, with Matt Henry and Doug Bracewell taking a wicket each. The visitors now face an uphill task of avoiding a clean sweep in the two-match series after losing a thrilling first Test by two wickets on the last ball at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch last week.
