The Decision Review System has failed in the sixth one-day international between New Zealand and Sri Lanka in Dunedin.

Martin Guptill was struck on the pads in the fourth over by Dhammika Prasad. He was on six and the score was 10 for one. Prasad gestured for a review but the Sri Lankans were told they couldn't use the technology.

It's been revealed one camera is out of use at the southern end of the ground because of cabling issues, meaning reviews are not possible. It only affects lbw reviews at this stage.
Guptill has moved to 17 in the 11th over and the score is 40 for one. Kane Williamson is unbeaten on 18.

New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum won the toss and decided to bat. He was caught for a duck by Thisara Perera running 30m towards long off and taking the ball over his shoulder. Prasad was the bowler.

Daniel Vettori has broken the record for New Zealand ODI caps, appearing in his 280th match two days before his 36th birthday. He's overtaken Stephen Fleming.

Kyle Mills also returns to the line-up after a spell out with a groin injury.

Tim Southee and Nathan McCullum have been omitted from the team that played on Friday.

Sri Lanka have made two changes with Rangana Herath and Prasad replacing Sachithra Senanayake and Nuwan Kulasekara.

The weather is expected to be fine all day.

New Zealand leads the seven-match series 3-1. If they win the final two games of this series and England lose their next match to India in Australia, New Zealand rise to fifth in the world rankings.

New Zealand: Brendon McCullum (C), Martin Guptill, Kane Williamson, Ross Taylor, Grant Elliott, Corey Anderson, Luke Ronchi, Daniel Vettori, Kyle Mills, Mitchell McClenaghan, Trent Boult.

Sri Lanka: Lahiru Thirimanne (C), Tillakaratne Dilshan, Dimuth Karunaratne, Kumar Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene, Dinesh Chandimal, Jeevan Mendis, Thisara Perera, Dhammika Prasad, Rangana Herath, Shaminda Eranga, Suranga Lakmal.
