- With this Vaas also completed the allround double of 1000 runs and
200 wickets- becoming only the fourth player in ODIs to do so after
India's Kapil Dev (3782 runs and 252 wickets in 225 matches),
Pakistani Wasim Akram (3328 runs and 440 wickets in 319 matches) and
teammate Sanath Jayasuriya (6797 runs and 202 wickets in 240
matches).
- Vaas' three wickets in the match has taken his tally to 203 which
puts him on the second place among the leading Sri Lankan wicket
takers. Only Muttiah Muralitharan (246) has taken more wickets than
Vaas for Sri Lanka. Vaas surpassed fellow teammate Sanath
Jayasuriya's tally of 203 wickets.
- New Zealand's total (115-9) was its lowest ever against Sri Lanka.Its
previous lowest was 116 in 34 overs at Moratuwa on March 31,1984.
- The victory margin of 106 runs equals the Sri Lanka's record in terms
of runs against New Zealand. Sri Lanka had beaten New Zealand by
identical margin at Sharjah on April 10,2001.
- Chaminda Vaas won his maiden Man of the Match award. By taking 164
matches to win his maiden award, Vaas achieved yet another dubious
distinction of different sorts. He now holds the world record of
winning the MoM award for the first time after maximum matches. Vaas
has left India's Venkatesh Prasad way behind. Prasad had won his
maiden award while playing his 109th match (v England at Sharjah on
April 11,1999).
