New Zealand tour of Sri Lanka 2009 News

  • Butler did it, despite the odds

    Shane Bond, Ian Butler and Daryl Tuffey last hunted as a pack together in Barbados in 2002

  • Butler bounces back

    He's gone from young fast bowler to injury casualty to allrounder. Now Ian Butler's back to the big time, and he's still got time on his side

  • Pressure on top

    The experienced batsmen need to stand up and be counted if Sri Lanka are to get out of their one-day rut

  • The Chandimal chronicles

    He had been rejected by Dharmasoka College’s Under-13 team due to an unorthodox bowling action

  • Clash of the titans

    Morrison runs in from a few paces and delivers the ball
