Sri Lanka celebrate their historic win over the White Ferns.

First ODI, Galle International Stadium: White Ferns 170-5 in 28 overs (Amelia Kerr 40 off 51, Maddy Green 38 off 30) lost to Sri Lanka 172-1 in 27 overs (Chamari Athapaththu 108no off 83, Vishmi Gunaratne 50 off 74) by 9 wickets.

The White Ferns have suffered an historic defeat, losing to Sri Lanka for the very first time.

And it was a thrashing at that, in the opening ODI of their tour in Galle, New Zealand beaten by nine wickets with an over to spare, in a rain-shortened match that finished early on Wednesday (NZ time).
