NZ win the toss and Choose to field


NZ players during the practice  session
When the rain subsides, will Kane Williamson get off the mark?

Taylor "With the dark clouds in the air and the uncertainty in the weather, we would like to bowl first."
Sanga: "We had decided to bat first. The wicket looks pretty nice and dry."
Weather : Ten Sports' Russel Arnold reckons there is rain around the corner. Apparently the locals told him that they are expecting rain for 2-3 days before it clears up. Cricinfo's Sid Ravi is in Dumbulla and he says, "It's cloudy, but nowhere as threatening as yesterday".
