The lethal bowling of Harry Shipley (5/31) helped New Zealand beat Sri Lanka by 198 runs in the first ODI. Batting first at Eden Park, New Zealand made 274 in 49.3 overs with the help of Finn Allen's 51 and Rachin Ravindra's 49 but bowled out Sri Lanka for 76 in 19.5 overs. Apart from Henry, Daryl Mitchell and Blair Tickner took two wickets each.
Angelo Mathews (18), Karunaratne (11), and Lahiru (10) were the only ones to reach double digits for Sri Lanka. This score of Sri Lanka is the fifth-lowest score of any team in ODIs. This is the second-lowest score at Eden Park. Half of the Sri Lankan team was dismissed for 31 runs within ten overs. With this defeat, the Sri Lankan team has gone 0-1 in the three-match ODI series.
With this win, New Zealand moved to the top of the World Cup Super League standings. He has 160 points in 22 matches. If the Kiwis win the series 3-0, they will overtake Australia to become the number-one ODI team in the world.
With this defeat, it has become difficult for Sri Lanka to make a place in the ODI World Cup directly. The Sri Lankan team is placed 10th in the Super League standings with 77 points, with two more matches to play.
Only the top eight teams in the Super League will get a direct berth in the World Cup. This World Cup is to be held in India this year. Even if the Sri Lankan team wins the next two ODIs of the series, it will have to depend on the results of the other teams to qualify directly. However, Sri Lanka will have a chance to make it to the World Cup by playing the qualifying rounds. The Indian team has already qualified for this World Cup as the host.
