Colin Munro hammered the fastest Twenty20 International (T20I) half-century by a New Zealand batsman, as he combined forces with Martin Guptill to help his side pull off a comfortable nine-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the second and final T20I at Auckland on Sunday.
Having restricted Sri Lanka to 142 for the loss of eight wickets, New Zealand consumed a mere 10 overs to chase the target down, with the duo of Guptill and Munro tearing the hapless Sri Lankan bowling apart yet again.
Sri Lanka were whitewashed 0-2 in the T20I series as a result of the one-sided hammering as they ended their nightmarish tour of New Zealand with another disappointment.
