South Africa and Sri Lanka face-off in the first Group 1 match of the ICC World T20 2014 at Chittagong, with both teams eager to make a winning start to the ICC World T20 2014.
Sri Lanka will be buoyed by their recent Asia Cup 2014 victory and even started the warm-up games of this tournament with a thrilling win over India.
Meanwhile South Africa were found wanting against the Australians at home in the series that preceded the World T20. Sri Lanka’s familiarity with the conditions will prove to be key but South Africa’s only ICC victory came in these parts in 1998.
