Notably, this was Nissanka's sixth half-century in ODI cricket. Here we look at his stats.

The visitors were off to a disastrous start as besides Nissanka, none of their other top-five batters could touch double figures.

    A look at his ODI stats 

    Nissanka, who made his ODI debut in March 2021, has now raced to 715 runs in the format in 23 games. While his average reads 32.5, he strikes at 81.53. The tally includes six fifties and a solitary ton. Meanwhile, this was Nissanka's maiden ODI fifty versus the Kiwis. Notably, the 23-year-old mustered 491 runs in 11 ODIs in 2022 at 49.10.

    A high-stake game for Sri Lanka 

    SL are trailing 0-1 in the series, having lost the opening game by 198 runs. The Lankans need a victory to keep their hopes for direct qualification in the 2023 ODI World Cup alive.
