    New Zealand won the final match of the ODI series by 36 runs at the same venue with Henry leading its bowling charge. The surface, however, did assist the spinners and the visitor will be hoping Jeffrey Vandersay, the young leggie, can make an impact with the ball. Tillakaratne Dilshan, Chandimal and Mathews must lead the way with the bat as Sri Lanka tries to round off a disappointing tour on a high.

    The one piece that won't feature in both matches is Tim Southee. The experienced paceman has been ruled out due to a toe injury suffered during the third ODI. Matt Henry, who has 13 wickets from his last three ODIs, has been named as replacement.

    A turnaround, however, isn't beyond Sri Lanka, which has a host of youngsters to pick from to complement the experienced core group. New Zealand, by contrast, looks like it has most pieces in place.
    Chandimal has a stiff task on hand not only because these Sri Lanka has had a difficult tour since arriving in New Zealand in December last year. Sri Lanka lost the Test series 0-2 and the five-match One-Day International series 1-3, both under Angelo Mathews.

    Sri Lanka too has a new T20 captain, but Chandimal has been entrusted with the responsibility once because Lasith Malinga, the regular skipper, is absent because of a recurring knee injury. Chandimal, who stepped down from T20 captaincy during the ICC World T20 2014, has been a picture of consistency with the bat over the last few months.
