Kane Williamson has won the toss, and New Zealand are batting first against Sri Lanka in the ICC T20 World Cup.

“We want to get runs on the board as the surface is good. It is nice to come out for a game. We have made just one change. Daryll Mitchell comes in for Mark Chapman,” said Williamson.

“We have batted had I won the toss. But we are good at chasing. It was just one bad game against Australia, and the spinners will be key for us. Binura Fernando is out with injury and Kasun Rajitha coming in for him,” said Dasun Shanaka.

New Zealand XI: Finn Allen, 2 Devon Conway (wk), 3 Kane Williamson (capt.), 4 Glenn Phillips, 5 Daryl Mitchell, 6 Jimmy Neesham, 7 Mitchell Santner, 8 Ish Sodhi, 9 Tim Southee, 10 Lockie Ferguson, 11 Trent Boult

Sri Lanka XI: 1 Kusal Mendis (wk), 2 Pathum Nissanka, 3 Dhananjaya de Silva, 4 Charith Asalanka, 5 Bhanuka Rajapaksa, 6 Dasun Shanaka (capt), 7 Wanindu Hasaranga, 8 Chamika Karunaratne, 9 Maheesh Theekshana, 10 Kasun Rajitha, 11 Lahiru Kumara
