    Black Caps cricket coach Gary Stead appears committed to applying a similar balance to the New Zealand bowling attack for the second test against Sri Lanka starting at 4.30pm in Galle

    Black Caps cricket coach Gary Stead appears committed to applying a similar balance to the New Zealand bowling attack for the second test against Sri Lanka starting at 4.30pm in Galle


    The hosts won the first match by 63 runs with spin securing 26 of the 40 wickets.

    The risk is the visitors' pace bowlers bend their backs and get petanque pit-like bounce in return.

    Stead has brought out his scales.



    Stead has confirmed captain Tim Southee will play, despite his absence from the traditional captain's press conference.
