Malinga named SL skipper for ODIs, T20I against New Zealand
Sri Lankan pacer Lasith Malinga has been named the team's captain for the ODI series and the lone T20I against New Zealand. The selectors have picked wicketkeeper-batsman Niroshan Dickwella as Malinga's deputy. Sri Lanka drew the three-day practice game against New Zealand XI in Napier earlier this week under Dinesh Chandimal, the Sri Lankan captain for the longer format.
