It was the duo of Faf du Plessis and Hashim Amla who did much of the recovery work for the South African team for the rest of the day. The pair added 58 runs from 179 balls for the third wicket, frustrating the Sri Lankan bowlers in the process. It was Suranga Lakmal’s reintroduction to the attack which led to the dismissal of du Plessis, who edged the ball to the keeper, and he collected it inches from the ground with a fabulous one-handed dive. The next man to come in was AB de Villiers, who stayed at the crease till the end of day’s play. Amla and De Villiers now have the task of thwarting the Lankan spinners on Day Three in order to swing things in their favour.
