Daryl Mitchell after his fighting 102 – ‘Pretty cool to do it in the circumstances where those runs were needed’ | T-10 NEWS

On the key passage of day three:
“The New Zealanders played very well in the second session today and swung the game their way. It was that 25 overs when Daryl Mitchell and Matt Henry’s partnership took the game away from us. And after that, Neil Wagner as well. It looked like a 50-run lead for us at one stage.”

On Sri Lanka’s prospects:
“We have to back ourselves that a couple of batsmen will go in there and get some big runs, to swing back to our side. The wicket is still good to bat on. It gives a little to the fast bowlers still. Anything above 275-300 would be a good score.”
