The Black Caps are up against a mammoth task in their second test in Sri Lanka. 

They’ll have to match a colossal total if they hope to even salvage a draw at Galle, not to mention the continuing struggles of opening batsman Devon Conway. 

Former Black Cap Ronnie Hira joined Piney to discuss why the team has struggled so much in Sri Lanka so far. 

“I think they obviously blew a lot of missed opportunities with the ball on the first day and in the field,” he told Piney. 

“It becomes difficult for bowlers to maintain, I guess energy and morale when you see missed chances happening like that.”
