Pallekele International Cricket Stadium is set to host the third ODI between Sri Lanka and New Zealand of the ongoing three-match series on Tuesday, November 19. The match will start at 2:30 PM IST. This match holds significant importance for both teams. Sri Lanka will be aiming for a clean sweep, while New Zealand will be looking to salvage some pride and avoid a 3-0 loss.
