New Zealand begin their preparation for the upcoming Champions Trophy with the series against Sri Lanka. Even though this isn't their full-strength side, the Kiwis will be keen on getting their combinations right and also an idea of the conditions on offer in the Asian subcontinent. The tournament, for now, is scheduled to take place in Pakistan from February 19 to March 9 next year.

Sri Lanka aren't part of the Champions Trophy because they didn't finish in the top 8 of the ODI World Cup standings. However, after a decent performance in the T20I series, the hosts will be looking to lift the trophy in the ODIs. Ever since Sanath Jayasuriya was appointed their head coach, the team has performed extremely well much to the delight of the home fans. 

Meanwhile, the series has been marred with injuries to one key player from each team. Lockie Ferguson sustained a calf injury during the second T20I and has been ruled out of the series completely. For the home team, Wanindu Hasaranga will miss this series due to a hamstring injury.
