The first T20I between New Zealand and Sri Lanka is scheduled to take place on Saturday (December 28). The game will be played at Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui.

New Zealand managed to avoid a whitewash by winning the third Test and will be looking to make the most of the momentum.
Sri Lanka are also eyeing a winning start to their tour. The islanders have started the tour on a good note. They won both their warm-up games against the New Zealand XI and will also be looking to replicate the winning performance in the first T20I.
