Sri Lanka win toss, bowl against New Zealand in second ODI
Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bowl on Wednesday against New Zealand in a rain-reduced second one-day international in Hamilton.
Wet weather forced a delay to the start of the match, turning it into a contest comprising a maximum of 37 overs each.
New Zealand can clinch the three-match series if victorious in the day-night game at Seddon Park after winning the opener by nine wickets in Wellington on Sunday.
Both sides made one change.
Veteran wicketkeeper Tom Latham returns after missing game one with "soreness", replacing Mitchell Hay.
Spinner Maheesh Theekshana comes in for seamer Lahiru Kumara in the Sri Lankan line-up.
The third and final match is in Auckland on Saturday.
