The seventh and final one day international match between New Zealand and Sri Lanka kicks off in the capital city of Wellington on Thursday.

The home nation Black Caps have already wrapped up the series and have nothing of true substance left to play for. Sri Lanka will merely be trying to break their cycle of losing in recent weeks. As of now they look like a far cry from the team that finished as runners-up in the last Cricket World Cup.

New Zealand has upcoming ODI matches against Pakistan next week, so expect them to rest a few key players in as they look ahead toward those.

If you'll pardon the pun, today the Lions are playing for pride. I predict they take this match going away.
