Veteran Ross Taylor and rising star Henry Nicholls both smashed centuries as New Zealand beat Sri Lanka by 115 runs in the third ODI in Nelson yesterday to complete a 3-0 series whitewash.
Taylor top-scored with 137, and Nicholls was unbeaten on 124 off just 80 balls, lifting the hosts to 364 for four after they were sent in to bat. It was a record ODI score at Nelson's Saxton Oval and Sri Lanka never looked like reaching the mammoth total.
