Time for the presentation...

Southee is also the Man of the Match: There have been couple of great games in front of great crowds. It got close but we back our batsmen all the way down, a little bit of luck went our way. It was pleasing to see Tom Bruce do well in his first game. Colin has been impressive in this series and it was pleasing to see Seth Rance bounce back the way he did. We have to do an injury check and see who's available for the next game.

Malinga: We tried our best and the young players put on a decent score, but there were some mistakes so we lost. We're still really happy with the fighting effort, that's how we want to go in the future. I want to thank all those who supported us. There's still one game to go. We want to give freedom to youngsters to play their natural game, they're learning how to play T20s and I want young players to show they're made for international cricket. I think Mendis and Jayasuriya are all right after the injuries and should play the next match.

That's all we have from the second T20I today, it's a series win for New Zealand, a lot of things to think about for Sri Lanka, including their fielding, before the last match of the series on Friday. Catch us again that day, and if there are any injury updates on Bruce, Guptill, Mendis or Jayasuriya, you will see them on our homepage, as usual. Thanks for tuning in, it's goodbye and good luck from Vishal Dikshit, Ankur Dhawan and Raghav.

10.33pm After two phases of nervy moments - first in the Powerplay when Akila Dananjaya bowled and then towards the end when de Grandhomme and Bruce were dismissed - New Zealand have sealed the series with one match to go. The credit for today goes to de Grandhomme and Bruce, their partnership fetched 109 in under 15 overs after New Zealand were 38 for 3 with Martin Guptill not available to bat. Isuru Udana, who conceded 38 in the first T20I, was among the best bowlers today but the question is why Malinga made him bowl only three overs. It went down to a close finish and Mitchell Santner eventually struck a six and a four to end with 10 off the two balls he faced. He will show that strike rate of 500 to his grandchildren, won't he?

De Grandhomme: I had it pretty well in the Test match and wanted to carry on from there. T20 is hard to bowl anyway so not having to bowl is not bad anyway. One of the guys there in RCB helped me prepare against spin. A bit nervous in the last couple of overs but we knew we were only one hit away and T20 is like that anyway

Both Kusal Mendia and Jayasuriya were down on the field for a long time, they're now being carried away from the boundary rope for some treatment. Scores level, one to go with the field in

Santner and Southee out there, neither has faced a delivery yet. New Zealand need seven from four

Prasad: "Brilliant work by hasaranga."

End of a really good and steady innings, Santner comes out

Seven needed from six. Remember, Bruce is unlikely to take two quick runs and they wouldn't want to leave it for the last ball. So they need a boundary. The ball has been given to Hasaranga

Mitchell to face his first ball

Tom Bruce is in trouble with some cramps now. He's on the ground and getting some attention. He's got them so far, de Grandhomme has departed so will be desperate to see them through. The physio is now putting tsome tape around Bruce's right knee. It could be that he hurt his knee while or after turning for the second run on the last ball because he went down immediately after completing the run. Bruce is back up now, putting his pad back, he'll be batting soon

Asfaq: "Anyone tell me, why Guptill is not used by New Zealand?" He picked up an injury while fielding

Now 15 from 10, Daryl Mitchell the new batsman but Bruce is on strike after crossing over

Saf: "Will it be a turning point !"

The crowd his getting behind their team. Two fielders in the deep on leg, and there are two short third mans

It's down to 17 from 12, very much gettable in T20s. But you know what else can happen in T20s. Malinga has a chat with Udana, who will bowl only his third over now. A spinner for the last over?

Malinga's last ball

Abhay Arora: "Malinga miscalculated the quota of overs left for each bowler. Udana will be left with 1 over at the end of the innings." That's a fair point

These two have been doing well to not take risks against Malinga

Just six runs from the last two overs. Can Sri Lanka pull things back? Malinga will bowl his last now

Vanessa L: "Supradeep I think you forgot ben stokes. "

Supradeep: "Collin de Grandhomme reminds me of a certain Abdul Razzak in late ninties and early noughties Not in his style but the ball striking ability. I think CDG is one of the cleanest and best strikers of a cricket ball of this generation." What about Jos Buttler and Hardik Pandya?
